01About this home

Welcome to one of Brookfield's most coveted addresses - a home that announces itself with the quiet confidence of a property that simply has everything. Congress Park Avenue, one of the select wide, landscaped boulevards in the village, carries an unhurried elegance that sets it apart from the moment you arrive - the kind of address that feels established, considered, and rare. This distinguished farmhouse sits perfectly within that setting, positioned in the well-regarded Lyons Township High School district with effortless access to the Congress Park Metra, neighborhood parks, the local elementary school, and the celebrated shops and dining of downtown La Grange. The home reveals a thoughtfully realized dual-living configuration that is as practical as it is refined. The main first floor residence offers a bright and gracious living room with bay windows and original stained glass, a formal dining room graced with a built-in buffet, a kitchen with walk-in pantry, two bedrooms, and a beautifully appointed bathroom with tile floors and classic subway tile. Original hardwood floors, doors, and trim flow throughout, alongside handsome built-ins that speak to a era of craftsmanship seldom found at any price point. A back porch mudroom, second-story deck, and fenced yard complete the picture with effortless livability. The partially finished full basement features a newly carpeted family/entertainment room with additional space for a home office, family gatherings, or additional guest accommodations. The second-floor suite - entirely private, with its own separate entrance - offers vaulted ceilings, a living room with gas fireplace, a full kitchen, a bedroom, and an office. Whether envisioned as an in-law retreat, a guest sanctuary, or an income-producing rental, it represents the kind of flexibility that today's most discerning buyers actively seek and rarely find. Beyond the property itself, the broader context only strengthens the case. The Village of Brookfield has actively committed to the reinvestment and elevation of this very corridor - a quiet but powerful signal for buyers who understand that a neighborhood on the rise is as valuable as the home within it. Congress Park Avenue has long attracted those who prize architectural character, residential tranquility, and proximity to the best of the western suburbs. That reputation is only deepening. This is a home for the buyer who recognizes that location, livability, and income potential rarely arrive together - and who appreciates, above all, the art of arriving somewhere truly worth staying.
