Chicago-based Lexington Homes has announced the start of sales for Metro on Main, a new community of 89 townhomes in north suburban Morton Grove, Illinois.
Sales have been swift so far, with 11 townhomes sold in the first two weeks of sales. Prices start at $448,990.
With this new maintenance-free community comes the debut of the homebuilder’s fresh redesign of its popular Mews series of townhomes, which will be showcased in three model homes to be completed by this fall.
Located at 8350 Lehigh Ave., Metro on Main is in a prime location near major retailers like Amazon Fresh, Costco, Target, Kohl’s and a newly opened LA Fitness. The community is a short walk from the Morton Grove Metra station, a 10-minute drive to the Dempster-Skokie Yellow Line CTA station and offers convenient access to Interstates 94 and 294. Residents also are in proximity to countless recreational options such as Harrer Park and Harrer Pool, the Chick Evans and Tam golf courses, and the North Branch Trail System, which is less than a mile from Metro on Main.
Buyers at Metro on Main can choose from three floor plans: Orchid, Lotus and Juniper. Base-priced from the mid-$440,000s, the three-level townhomes range from 1,780 to 2,278 square feet and offer two to four bedrooms, 2½ to 3½ baths, balconies and attached rear-facing, two-car garages.
All three plans feature a finished lower level, with access to the garage; a main living level with open-concept kitchen, dining and living areas, a powder room and balcony; and an upper level with bedrooms, full baths and a laundry room. The flex space on the finished lower levels can serve as a home office, fitness room, children’s play area or home theater.
All homes at Metro on Main include 9-foot ceilings and luxury plank flooring throughout the main level. Kitchens feature 42-inch upper cabinets, quartz countertops, a large island with breakfast bar overhang and energy-efficient stainless steel GE appliances. Baths, per plan, include 12-by-12-inch ceramic flooring, dual sinks, quartz vanity tops and private water closets. Primary suites have walk-in closets.
Buyers can choose from a variety of structural upgrades to customize their home, such as adding a powder room on the lower level, a traditional or contemporary fireplace in the main level living area and volume ceilings in any upper-level bedroom. Per plan, a 2-foot extension can be added to increase square footage in secondary bedrooms, a third bedroom can be added on the upper level, and a fourth bedroom can be added on the lower level.
