4451 Franklin Western Springs Illinois

4451 Franklin Western Springs Illinois

Take a look inside 4451 Franklin Western Spring IL for a treat sought after by many, but achieved by few. Of course, I am referring to that elusive combination of a LARGE lot (213 feet deep in this case) combined with an in-town “walk to” location.

Most of the lots in the in-town sections of Western Springs are 50 x 135. To have a lot that is 213 feet deep is flat out unheard of. The benefits are many:

  • awesome back yard
  • wonderful space for the kids to scream
  • increased privacy as the back yard neighbors are further removed
  • Tons of space for future expansion

If you have viewed the virtual tour, you can see that 4451 Franklin in Western Springs Illinois is a cut above the rest. The floor plan is particularly family friendly. Oversized eat-in kitchen. Large family room. First floor office area. Hardwood floors. Finished basement.

Enough with the talk already, come take  a look for yourself by contacting Bryan Bomba of Coldwell Banker Western Springs 630-455-8455.

September 10th, 2009 bryanbomba Posted in Village of Western Springs Comments Off

Imagine living in a new home in the revered Old Town neighborhood in Western Springs IL for $899,900!

The Old Town neighborhood in Western Springs is unique in that it offers true “walk to” living. Walk to Laidlaw Grade School, McClure Junior High School, downtown Western Springs, the Western Springs Metra commuter train station and Bemis Woods.

This is a completed new home that no one has lived in. Be the first owner of this custom built traditional home.

It features four finished levels of living area. That is three stories plus a finished basement. Talk about space!

This is a screaming value for the astute buyer. Contact Bryan Bomba of Coldwell Banker Western Springs for details. 630-455-8455.

Additionally, the lot is uncommonly deep which creates an extra deep back yard.

An In-town Western Springs Home On A 213 Foot Deep Lot

August 5th, 2009 bryanbomba Posted in Village of Western Springs 1 Comment »

 

Take a look at 4451 Franklin in Western Springs IL. Upon first look, it appears to be a wonderfully updated, spacious and neutrally decorated family home. Well, it is a lot more than that. Take a look at the Google map of Western Springs and you will begin to learn the truly convenient lifestyle that this in-town Western Springs home affords.  Easy walk to downtown Western Springs. Easy walk to the Western Springs Metra commuter train. Easy walk to schools. Am I being too subtle when i say that you will absolutely not find a more convenient walk to location?

And now for the awesome yard. Most homes in Western Springs IL have lots that are 135 feet in depth. 4451 Franklin offers a whopping 213 feet of lot depth. Effectively that means that there is an extra 80 feet of back yard space for the kids to play. Do you know how uncommon that is? It is next to impossible to find in an in-town location like this.

How To Find Out The Value Of Western Springs Real Estate

February 16th, 2009 bryanbomba Posted in Village of Western Springs Comments Off

Regardless of your purpose, it makes sense to know the value of your western Springs real estate. It is likely that your real estate holdings in Western Springs represent one of your largest financial assets.

It must be noted that your home is not worth what was reported by the last bank appraisal. If that appraisal was done more than six months ago, it is ancient history.

Rather, I recommend a number of online tools to help you in determining the value of your residential real estate in western Springs IL.

WestSuburbanMLS.com is a way to check all of the current property listings in the Chicago Metropolitan area. Unlike realtor.com and other “consumer” real estate websites, WestSuburbanMLS.com is up to date.

Another good real estate website is MyPropertyValuation.com. It’s a very localized valuation system that works a lot like Zillow.

In Terms Of Western Springs Real Estate, Why Is The Ridge Acres Neighborhood So Hot?

January 25th, 2009 bryanbomba Posted in Village of Western Springs Comments Off

First, the houses. Click here to see all of the homes listed for sale in the Ridge Acres neighborhood of Western Springs. 

Second, the schools. The Ridge Acres neighborhood is serviced by both the Forest Hills Grade School and Field Park Grade School (dependent on where you are in the neighborhood) as well as the McClure Junior High School and Lyons Township High School. All of which are within walking distance, by the way.

Third, the Ridge Acres neighborhood of Western Springs IL is a true in-town neighborhood within a short walk of the Metra train station in downtown Western Springs.

It’s a family-oriented neighborhood where the neighborhood knows the kids and the kids know the neighborhood.

This specific home at 4635 Johnson Western Springs is just a sensible house at a sensible price.

It is extra clean, neutrally decorated and in very good physical condition. It is absolutely in move-in condition. Even the bathrooms have been updated with the latest in natural stone tiles. it just has a clean and crisp personality.

The floor plan could not be any more functional. In addition to the all-important eat-in kitchen, there is a first floor family room as well. All four of the bedrooms are on the second floor (Do you really want to sleep on a different level than your young child?). And the master suite boasts a volume ceiling and a private, extremely updated bathroom.

Best of all, the owner can grant possession to you asap.

Currently, there is a one car garage. If you have the desire to store two or more cars, there are at least two potential solutions.

First, there is potential for a circular driveway. This could allow for one car to be parked in the garage and another to be out of the way on the circular driveway.

Second, there is potential for a two car garage to be built in the back yard and the existing garage may be used as a porte cochere (an impressive way of saying an aesthetically pleasing car port).

Both of these solutions are subject to village approval.

Questions? Just ask. Call me at 630-468-2505 or e-mail me Bryan@BryanBomba.com
