Helping ease the Chicago region’s tight housing inventory, Hinsdale, Ill.-based Foxford Communities has announced that it has completed construction on the second building at Clocktower Pointe, its luxury condominium development in Countryside, Ill. Clocktower Pointe is one of the only new-construction condominium developments in the area to offer buyers up to 2,267 square feet of single-level living space and luxury finishes such as Bosch appliances.
Located at the intersection of Joliet and Willow Springs roads, Clocktower Pointe will feature six six-story buildings upon completion comprising a total of 108 condominiums. Homes offer 1,882 to 2,267 square feet with two to three bedrooms and 2 to 2½ baths. Prices range from $359,900 to $589,000.
“With only four units per floor, and only two on the penthouse level, Clocktower Pointe offers every buyer a corner unit, with windows galore,” said Peter Brennan, president of Foxford Communities. “It’s an ideal community for those looking to downsize from the upkeep of a single-family home without sacrificing square footage. When you combine Clocktower Pointe’s high-end features with the property’s convenient location – only 30 minutes from downtown Chicago – it’s also a smart location for commuters.”
Condominiums at Clocktower Pointe offer privacy and an abundance of natural light as each home is a corner-unit layout with large windows wrapping around on two sides. Additionally, all of the Clocktower Pointe condominiums include large, open living areas that lead to oversized private balconies and/or terraces ranging from 165 to 1,000 square feet, providing ample space for a grill and patio furniture.
“Terraces on the penthouse suites even offer expansive views of the city skyline and include access from both the living room and master bedroom, which can help optimize traffic flow when entertaining,” noted Brennan.
Clocktower Pointe’s spacious floor plans and upscale finishes make for an easy transition for downsizers like Maria Rigo and her husband, who in August 2014 decided to sell their single-family home in La Grange Park and downsize to a condominium.
“We had a few requirements: something not too far from our old La Grange Park neighborhood so we could stay close to friends, a maintenance-free lifestyle, enough space to accommodate our children when they visit, a well-regarded school district to help with resale value, nice outdoor living space, and new construction,” said Maria. “We were excited to find Clocktower Pointe, which met all of our criteria. The space is perfect and we love the finishes. We are looking forward to moving into our new home this May.”
Homes at Clocktower Pointe feature upscale, eat-in gourmet kitchens with quartz countertops, Bosch stainless steel appliances and custom kitchen cabinets. Additionally, each home includes a master suite featuring a walk-in closet and master bath with a soaking tub, walk-in shower and a quartz-topped, double-bowl vanity. Residences also include a large laundry room with full-capacity, top-load washer and dryer units.
Additional standard features in Clocktower Pointe condominiums include 9-foot ceilings that create a spacious feel, along with crown molding and hardwood flooring in the kitchen, living and dining areas. Each building also includes an elevator and heated parking garage with extra storage space.
“When you factor in everything from Clocktower Pointe’s convenient location and the size of the homes to the sophisticated level of finishes, there really isn’t anything else like it in the area when it comes to new construction,” said Brennan.
Nestled in the bustling Countryside community near popular suburbs like La Grange, Western Springs, Hinsdale and Burr Ridge, Clocktower Pointe is part of the highly regarded Lyons Township High School District and minutes away from shopping, dining, theaters and recreational activities provided by the surrounding country clubs and golf courses. Its proximity to Interstates 55 and 294 offers easy access to the city and neighboring suburbs, as well as O’Hare and Midway International Airports.
Clocktower Pointe’s on-site sales center and decorated model are open Friday through Tuesday from 12 to 5 p.m. For more information or to schedule an appointment, visit www.clocktowerpointeresidences.com or call (708) 579-2222.
