Are you the type of home buyer that doesn't follow the crowd? You prefer a different type of location for your next home. An original thinker that prefers to set their your own path, you don't want to live in a cookie-cutter subdivision where the only difference is a choice of 4-5 different home styles - a few color selections and some subtle changes from one model to another.
You prefer larger lots and a variety of homestyles in a location that is not just an farm field that used to have soybeans or corn. Established areas where homes may not be the newest or largest but have their own history. If this is a description that fits you, then you are in luck!
Nestled alongside the Fox River is an established subdivision right off Rt. 34/Ogden Ave. in the small village of Oswego, IL. Down one of the streets that feed into one of the main arteries that flow through this village about an hour's drive from Chicago is Riverview Heights. Backing off busy Rt. 34 and minutes from Orchard Rd. this small aproximately 60 home subdivision along the Fox River has a variety of homes of different styles, sizes and price points. Although only minutes from downtown Oswego and Orchard Rd. shopping, the laidback ambiance makes it feel like you are hours away from the hustle and bustle of a growing village.
The 4 bedroom ranch with 2 baths and a full basement may not be the largest home in the subdivision but it makes up for it in its simple appeal. Not ready to join the "tiny home" movement but want to downsize from a larger home? This is a great stepping stone to start getting used to a smaller footprint. Built in the 1970's when McMansions were not the type of home for your average homeowner, with hardwood floors and an updated kitchen this home exudes small town living and charm.
