About 1655 Forest Drive

*Multiple Offers Received - Highest & Best Offers are Due Mon 9/7 at 3pm* Welcome to Country-Style Living in Virginia Woods! Set on an expansive .62-acre lot (217' x 137.5') across from the forest preserve, this brick split-level offers a rare opportunity to create your home in a unique pocket of Glenview. Built in 1959, this 3-bedroom, 3.1-bath property has great bones and space to spread out, ready for your personal touch and updates. Spread across 4 levels of living space, the home offers room to grow and plenty of storage throughout. Walk into the bright living room with a beautiful wall of windows, flowing into the dining room and sun room for an open, easy feel. The large eat-in kitchen features two walls of windows overlooking the backyard, and offers easy access to the laundry room and 2-car heated attached garage with workspace. The bedrooms include built-ins for added storage, and one even features its own safe. The generous lot provides plenty of room for outdoor living, gardening, or future expansion - all just steps from nature. Located on a quiet dead-end cul-de-sac with only 33 homes, Forest Drive backs up to Indian Trail Park, a 5-acre park offering two playgrounds, tennis and basketball courts, and a baseball field. You'll also have immediate access to the Des Plaines River Bike Trail. Enjoy the best of both worlds: peaceful, wooded surroundings paired with everyday convenience. You're just minutes from shopping, dining, and entertainment at The Glen Town Center, with easy access to Willow Road and I-294 for an effortless commute. Glenbrook South High School, Glenview Community Ice Center, Glenbrook Hospital, The Historic Grove, and the River Nature Trail Center are all just minutes away.
