1675 Mill St

A mid-rise, five-story condominium built in 2003, River Mill presents primarily two-bedroom residences with occasional flex spaces configured as home offices or third bedrooms. The concrete-slab construction and elevator service create quiet, accessible floors; many units open to private balconies or oversized patios. Interiors commonly feature open kitchens with eat-in space, hardwood or laminate flooring, generous walk-in closets, full-size in-unit laundry rooms, and larger-than-average storage rooms. Building systems include monitored entry with TV-view intercom, on-site storage, heated indoor garage parking plus additional exterior parking, and radiant heat/concrete floor slabs in select units. Common-area maintenance emphasizes practical comfort: a recently refreshed lobby, fire sprinkler protection, snow-melt entrance, and regular tuckpointing and balcony maintenance. The association covers heat, water, and gas in assessments for some units and enforces a limited rental cap; pet-friendly policies are in place. Located on a quiet side street in downtown Des Plaines, River Mill sits within walking distance of the Metra station, restaurants, shops, and municipal amenities, while offering direct access to local expressways. The building’s scale, durable construction, and unit storage make it well suited for buyers seeking low-rise, commuter-friendly living with roomy floor plans and practical building services.
