420 Briarwood Pl.

A Home Like No Other! Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Highland Park history in the heart of Ravinia. Set deep into the Ravines on over half an acre, this quiet country home will bring you back to an era of time in the 1920's when Highland Park was becoming an oasis for those looking to escape bright lights and city noise for a more peaceful lifestyle down shady lanes and along bluffs high above Lake Michigan in search of good schools and a sense of community. This home has been lovingly maintained by the same family for over 50 years and displays beautiful European architectural features reminiscent of something you'd find in the French or English countryside. FALL IN LOVE with this home's many unique features like solid brick/stone construction, a HUGE Great room with soaring 30-foot beamed ceilings and dramatic balcony overlook, original true-divided glass paned windows, original hardwood and cork floors, original bath tiles, fixtures and plaster walls. This storied home is surrounded on nearly all sides by gorgeous ravine views and beautiful terraced tableland. There are so many unique features that can't be replicated, and so much potential; this is the perfect home for the buyer who wants vintage charm. Wonderful location just seconds away from schools, Metra train station, downtown Ravinia and Rosewood Beach; you'll even be able to enjoy the melodic sounds of Ravinia Festival from your back yard and patio. Being sold "As-Is."
