Quick look at Downers Grove single family home prices


I've been helping our city clients look for a home in Downers Grove. If they must leave I'm appreciative and excited to help them secure a great house. The Downers Grove landscape varies greatly. Ideally they will find a house within walking distance or easy bike ride to a Metra station. Those houses are often smaller and/ or more expensive per square foot. The sprawling suburb also offers large lot homes in less dense areas throughout the village. Somewhere in the middle are relatively affordable three bedrooms home in traditional post war sub-divisions. These tend to be locations more dependent on cars.

- The most expensive sale this year is 1204 Gilbert Ave, Downers Grove, IL 60515 at $2,000,000. This newer construction home located near downtown featured a large 50' x 178' lot and over 5,000 square feet of living space including the basement. "Having it all" will cost yo over $370.00 per sq/ft of higher-end finished space.
