Description

Greetings and welcome to 2720 Appletree Lane, Northbrook. Presenting a rare chance to write the next chapter of a well-loved home in one of the North Shore's most sought-after neighborhoods. Built in 1961 with the solid, careful construction and craftsmanship of that lost era, this residence has been owned and cared for by a single owner for 65 years. The structure is strong, straight, and true. The original wall-to-wall carpeting has protected the solid oak plank floors that were standard back when the house was built - easily refinished for today's modern tastes. A two-car garage with extra storage is included. The home will need a central air-conditioning upgrade since that was a luxury item back in the day. The location is exceptional and the potential is wide open. Step inside and you'll find a generous, unassuming canvas ready for your vision - whether that's a thoughtful refresh, an expanded kitchen with breakfast nook that becomes the heart of the house, a private primary master suite, or perhaps take a simpler room-by-room transformation that fits your timeline and budget. The exterior has quiet, established charm; the interior is waiting for some light, warmth, and the life you want to live here. Everyday living is simple since local shopping is convenient, the tollway and expressways are mere minutes away, and the Metra a short drive. You're insulated from the hustle and bustle, yet well-connected to Chicago. Nearby friendly parks, established sports programs, and local schools include: Wescott Elementary and Maple Junior High (District 30) and Glenbrook North High School (District 225), consistently ranked among Illinois' strongest. Northbrook's sociable, walkable downtown, restaurants, shops, and parks are close at hand. Being sold as-is, with no expressed or implied warranties. The property is primarily designed to move quickly and ready for someone who can envision what it can become - a comfortable, stylish home or possibly a renovation with tremendous upside. Properties like this in Northbrook often move very quickly, so take advantage of this ideal opportunity. Picture the mornings, the gatherings, and the decades of memories still to come. This house is waiting for its next chapter and that's for you to write.
