Homes in Mount Prospect

Many homes in Mount Prospect include 1950s and 1960s ranches in neighborhoods like Forest View, often featuring smaller kitchens that feel closed off from living areas. We often assist with Kitchen Design to open these spaces. In areas like Kensington Place, homeowners frequently have 1970s and 1980s two-story homes with primary bathrooms split into small, separate rooms, which we address with Bathroom Design. We also see many 1920s bungalows near downtown Mount Prospect, where we often provide Color Consultation for original woodwork and plaster walls. Homes built in the 1990s and 2000s in subdivisions off Rand Road often have unpainted oak trim that homeowners want to update.

Bathroom Design is also common, especially for 1970s and 1980s homes where primary bathrooms are reconfigured from two small, separate spaces into one cohesive room.
