The Lodge of Northbrook is a vibrant, independent community for those 55 and older, offering a fantastic place to call home. Check out the Nor Oak floor plan! This third-floor unit features 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, along with a large private balcony that provides stunning western views of the courtyard. Imagine gardening right outside your door or soaking in the sights of the Willow Hill Golf Course in the distance. The kitchen is a real highlight, with beautiful maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. The seller has made some great upgrades too, like a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator and handy storage organizers throughout the closets and cabinets. The huge 8-foot island is ideal for entertaining or casual meals, and the open floor plan makes it easy to flow from the kitchen to the spacious living and dining area. When it's time to unwind, head to the primary bedroom, which comes with a large walk-in closet and a convenient ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower. The second bedroom is just as spacious and is located on the opposite side of the condo for extra privacy. You'll also find a full hall bath with a tub and shower combo, plus a laundry room that includes a full-size washer and dryer. Don't worry about storage-there's a large closet in the foyer and an extra storage locker right near your unit on the same floor. Each unit comes with a parking spot in the heated garage too. Life at The Lodge is never boring! Residents enjoy a variety of daily activities like exercise classes, book groups, card games, guest speakers, movie nights, bingo, and more. You also have access to amenities like an artist studio, a workshop, a beauty salon, and a fitness center. Plus, there's complimentary transportation available within an 8-mile radius, Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Conveniently located near shopping, expressways, and dining options, attractions like Ravinia and the Chicago Botanic Gardens are just a short drive away. You can also join in on many activities offered by the Northbrook Park District, including golf, tennis, and pickleball. The monthly assessment covers everything-property taxes, common insurance, utilities, internet, basic cable, plus both exterior and interior maintenance. Just a heads-up: income qualification is required for residency. For more details, check out the Lodge of Northbrook website.
