5540 Walnut Ave

Cameo is a low-rise, four-story condominium complex built in 1967 and oriented to residents aged 55 and over. The property is composed primarily of two-bedroom units with functional layouts that commonly include first-floor bedroom and bath options, open-plan living/dining combinations, built-in bookcases and storage, and updated kitchens with granite or quartz counters. Exterior features emphasize modest outdoor living with private balconies and site lighting overlooking well-kept lawns and common green spaces. Common areas are extensive for a building of this scale: an elevator-served lobby, multiple coin laundry rooms, a fitness room, library, card/puzzle rooms, meeting and social gathering spaces, and several lounge-type areas often furnished for communal use. Practical conveniences include deeded one-car garages, additional storage on unit wings, onsite parking, and secure entry doors that enhance privacy and safety. Management maintains regular activity schedules and seasonal social programming; building assessments cover utilities such as water and exterior maintenance. Rules reflect the community’s season-age residency model: owner-occupancy required, no rentals, no pets, and restrictions on balcony grilling. The location offers straightforward vehicular and transit access to I-355, nearby shopping, and commuter rail connections into downtown Downers Grove and beyond.
