Description
Distinctive contemporary architecture, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional Palatine location come together at 527 S. Williams Avenue in Arlington Crest. Built in the early 1980s, this unique 2 story contemporary stands apart from more traditional suburban homes with its asymmetrical roofline, soaring vaulted ceilings, dramatic skylights, and expansive use of glass. Inside, walls of windows and multiple sliding glass doors fill the great room with natural light and create an easy connection to the surrounding landscape. A freestanding wood-burning stove anchors the space and adds another memorable architectural element. The nearly half-acre property is surrounded by mature trees and established perennials, offering an unusually generous setting with plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. The current owners have made a substantial list of improvements throughout their ownership, including a new roof with new flashing and replaced skylights in December 2025, newer siding and gutters, a newer HVAC system with updated ductwork, and fresh basement carpeting. The kitchen also features a new refrigerator, oven, and dishwasher. A 2.5-car attached garage and custom upstairs closets add practical storage and everyday functionality. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and nearly 1,900 square feet, the home offers a flexible layout with architectural character throughout. The kitchen and baths are ready for your personal touch, providing an opportunity to make the interiors your own while many of the home's larger exterior and mechanical improvements have already been completed. Rose Park is just steps away, and the Arlington Park Metra station on the Union Pacific Northwest line is approximately two blocks from the property, offering convenient service to Chicago. Architecturally distinctive, thoughtfully maintained, and set on an unusually spacious lot, 527 S. Williams Avenue is anything but ordinary.
