Heaven knows you need to be nimble not to miss a choice listing, and this sleek, light-filled, just-listed, contemporary townhouse is almost too good to be true.
Harley Avenue is not a through street — think quiet, off-Montgomery Street in the heart of Arlington Heights near the cultural district. The townhouse is on three levels, one of two units that the Britts would call semi-detached, tucked behind an iron and masonry fence.
The ground floor is completely open with the living area soaring to double height. Floors are polished concrete, which has the refined appearance of travertine. Rooms are generously fenestrated, flooding the airy spaces with abundant light.
The kitchen features jazzy black lacquer cabinets, a gas range, a built-in microwave oven, and a large glamorous island with attractive black waterfall granite.
The 2,283-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-and-one-half-bath townhouse has a high-end finish out and amenities one might see in a house at twice the price.
The unit is perfectly suited for a lock-and-leave lifestyle with the convenience of a condo but with the space and privacy of a fully detached home.
Modern Style, Spectacular Details
Modern windows at clerestory height illuminate the principal bedroom, which is located on the second floor. It is part of a suite comprised of a bedroom, a bath, and a custom closet.
The bathroom has a black-and-white theme with black granite countertops and Land of the Giants white subway tile. There are two separate sinks and an enormous shower stall.
The third floor has an informal living area with a wet bar, perfect for entertaining guests. It looks out onto a roof-top terrace with treetop views.
The townhouse has a two-car garage at back with entry into the unit. Constructed in 2021, this property still feels brand new with everything from carpets to fittings in impeccable condition.
Hunter Ryffell of Woodcrest Enterprises, Inc. has priced 3707 Harley Avenue at $515,000.
