A single-family house at 116 East Brittany Drive in Arlington Heights has officially changed hands, with the sale closing on Aug. 27. The property fetched $545,000, marking the latest transaction in the village's steady residential market.
The home, which sits in a well-established neighborhood, offers a layout typical of the area's mid-century builds, with multiple bedrooms and a full basement. While the public record does not detail recent renovations, the sale price suggests the property was in solid condition or had been updated in key areas like the kitchen or bathrooms.
Buyers in Arlington Heights have shown steady interest in single-family homes this summer, and this sale aligns with the broader trend of sustained demand. The closing price came in close to the asking amount, indicating that negotiations were minimal and that both parties reached an agreement without major concessions.
For the new owners, the location provides easy access to downtown Arlington Heights, the Metra station, and local schools. The block itself is quiet, lined with mature trees and well-kept lawns, a feature that continues to draw families to the area.
The sale was recorded with the Cook County clerk's office, and no additional details about the transaction, such as the buyer's financing method or the seller's timeline, were disclosed. As the fall market approaches, this closing serves as another data point for those tracking home values in the northwest suburbs.
