7 units remain at Uptown Park Ridge
Edward R. James Homes is offering for sale the final seven condominiums at The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge, a mixed-use community featuring a total of 189 residences as well as 85,000 square feet of shops and restaurants in the heart of Park Ridge.
Located at Northwest Highway and Touhy Avenue, The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge is being developed by PRC Partners -- a partnership of Edward R. James Homes, LLC, Mid-America Asset Management, Inc. and Valenti Builders.
Available condominiums include two-bedroom, two-bedroom-plus-den and three-bedroom floor plans with two to three baths. They range in size from 1,354 to 2,539 square feet and are priced from the $450,000s to the $790,000s.
"This is a special development that fulfills a lofty vision for a pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use community that meets the needs of a variety of buyers and enlivens the city as well," said Jeanne Martini, director of sales and marketing for Edward R. James Homes.
Martini added that the final condominiums at The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge are slated for delivery in summer 2008, giving ample lead time to buyers who need to sell their current residence.
Edward R. James Homes is also working with preferred lenders who can lock in interest rates for up to a year, allowing buyers to take advantage of current interest rates.
While the final homes at The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge vary in size, all feature an open floor plan with the kitchen open to a great room; a luxury master bath with a dual-bowl vanity and separate shower and soaking tub; and at least one balcony or terrace.
"These are sophisticated, city-style residences that blend in nicely with downtown Park Ridge," Martini said. "At the same time, they have a number of features that put them on-par with a single-family home in terms of comfort and functionality."
For example, most remaining two-bedroom homes have a den. One three-bedroom, three-bath home has a guest suite with an attached bath and a walk-in closet.
The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge offers high-end finishes such as GE stainless steel appliances and granite countertops in the kitchen; Brookhaven by WoodMode® cabinetry; Kohler fixtures; and wood flooring in select areas.
Condominiums at The Residences of Uptown Park Ridge are located around a European-style plaza and above The Shops of Uptown, street-level retail space that includes clothiers Chico's and Jos A. Bank, restaurants and a Trader Joe's.
"The combination of residential and retail creates a very lively atmosphere, with people strolling the sidewalks and neighbors meeting up at restaurants," said Martini. "Residents can also enjoy events in downtown Park Ridge, from a summer farmer's market to movies and concerts at historic Pickwick Theatre."
