Anyone else gearing up for the busy holiday season? Well, with these two Park Forest homes you’ll be ahead of the game! Each offers plenty of space to entertain, plus dining rooms worthy of a feast, but with price points that are miles apart. Which would you choose, the swanky Mid Century Modern Splurge or the Charming Ranch Steal?

Splurge: Midcentury Modern Remodel Near Degolyer Elementary For $699K 

It couldn’t be easier to host all your family and friends here! The five-bedroom, three-full-and-one-half-bathroom stunner offers 2,689 square feet of living and entertaining with tons of designer accouterments. These include waterproof vinyl flooring and a head-turning quartz kitchen sprinkled with open shelving and satin gold hardware. There are marbled backsplashes, fresh paint, and modern light fixtures throughout. And among the light-filled interior is a dining room fit for a family feast. When company calls, a convenient mother-in-law suite is all you need to make guests feel at home. Plus, it’s in a separate wing of the house! Other features include a high-efficiency Trane XV AC unit, Trane furnace, new roof, new driveway, new steps, and new pergola. If you’re in the market, this is a move-in Park Forest splurge you can’t afford to miss.

Steal: Renovated Park Forest Ranch On Quarter Acre Lot For $450K

Our steal also feeds in the award-winning Degolyer Elementary! But that’s not all that makes this home great for families with kids. It sits on a quiet corner lot in prime Park Forest with a big backyard for children and pets to play. Inside, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom feels large offering a spacious 2,150 square feet filled with natural light. We love the updated kitchen with stainless appliances, and butcher block breakfast bar. And the open-concept layout means you can invite the whole family over to celebrate just in time for the holidays. Make the gracious dining room your own then retreat to the updated master suite. An attached garage and bonus storage add to the potential of this fantastic home. Even better, it is within walking distance to Northaven Trail and the community pool! What more could you want for the price?
