435 Alles St

A mid-rise, five-story brick-and-stone condominium built in 2005, the property reads as a contemporary low-rise in downtown Des Plaines. Units are primarily two-bedroom, two-bath homes with open floorplans, 9-foot ceilings in many residences, and layouts that often include a first-floor bedroom and full bath option, flexible office/den space, and walk-in closets. Construction features include flexicore floors for sound separation, elevator access, and a lobby entry with monitored door security and cameras. Kitchens typically show granite or Corian counters, islands or breakfast bars, oak cabinetry, and a mix of stainless steel or white appliances; many units have hardwood or heated wood floors and in-unit full-size laundry. Private outdoor spaces are common — oversize balconies or decks face tree-lined streets with western or unobstructed views on upper floors. Building amenities and services emphasize convenience: heated, under-building garage parking with deeded spaces and adjacent storage lockers, extra guest/permit parking, and included utilities in many HOAs (heat, gas, water, sewer, and garbage). The property’s downtown location places it within easy walking distance of the Metra station, shops, restaurants, library, parks, and O’Hare access, supporting a pedestrian-friendly, transit-oriented lifestyle. The association is described as well-managed and largely owner-occupied, with a generally pet-friendly policy and a mix of units offered with low taxes and favorable assessment structures.
