Greenbriar of Glendale Heights is a condominium association organized in September, 2001, in accordance with the Illinois Condominium Property Act. This townhome community is located within the limits of the Village of Glendale Heights (District 2) in a quiet subdivision south of North Avenue (IL-64) and west of Glen Ellyn Road - about 2.5 miles west of I-355. New buyers needing to finance the purchase of a home should know that Greenbriar of Glendale Heights is FHA-approved. The predominantly owner-occupied community falls inside the boundaries of Glen Ellyn School District 41 and Glenbard High School District 87. Both school districts are recognized to be among the top performing public school systems in Illinois. Enrolled children attend Abraham Lincoln Elementary School (grades K-5), Hadley Junior High School, (grades 6-8), and Glenbard West High School (grades 9-12), all of which are located in the adjacent village of Glen Ellyn, Illinois. Full-day kindergarten is also an option at D41's Kindergarten Center (opens fall, 2025) located on the campus of Churchill School in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. Both school districts provide bussing for our community's students to and from their respective schools. All of the townhomes are situated along Coventry Circle, which is centered around Greenbriar Park. The public park features a playground, open playing field, paved walking path, and picnic shelter. Residents have full "resident" access to the facilities, programs, and services available from BOTH the Glen Ellyn Park District as well as the Parks and Recreation Department for the Village of Glendale Heights. In total, there are 18 buildings and 89 townhouse units. Each building has either four, five or six side-by-side units. The buildings were originally constructed in three phases with poured concrete foundations, wooden frames, brick and vinyl exteriors, and asphalt shingle roofs. 69 units have three bedrooms, and 20 have two bedrooms. All units are two stories, have separate individual entries, attached two-car garages, concrete patios, and full basements. 11 of the units located on the east side of the property also have walk-out basements with wooden decks above the patios. Since 2008, asphalt replacement of driveways and aprons is ongoing and as-needed. All of the decks were completely rebuilt in 2013. Shingle replacements (total tear off) were completed for the roofs on all 18 buildings throughout May-June, 2024. Advantage Management provides professional, off-site management services for the community under the direction of a three-person board of directors, which is elected annually by the unit owners. Only unit owners are eligible to volunteer their service on the board of directors and are encouraged to consider doing so for at least one, two-year term of office. The board of directors is responsible for the community's governance and finances as well as maintaining the common and limited common elements, such as exterior maintenance of the buildings and grounds, including appearance, landscape, and snow removal. Illinois law stipulates the board of directors is required to hold at least four regular meetings throughout the calendar year in addition to an annual meeting, and all unit owners are invited to attend.
** ALL RESIDENTS AND POTENTIAL BUYERS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT LIVING IN A CONDOMINIUM IS NOT THE SAME AS IN AN APARTMENT OR DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY HOME. **
** As Greenbriar is a condominium community, the board of directors is also responsible for establishing and enforcing community rules, guidelines, and standards as needed/required in accordance with the association's Declaration and Bylaws. Therefore, it's strongly recommended to inquire with the current unit owner as to these specifics prior to closing on a real estate transaction or signing a lease for a given property, i.e. buyer/leasee beware, as all unit owners and residents are equally accountable and appreciate when the board of directors acts in an impartial and consistent manner. **
** Some examples of the community standards, guidelines, and rules for owners and residents of Greenbriar of Glendale Heights, as well as their guests and visitors, include regular (monthly) and special assessments, leasing units, occupancy, noise, pets, exterior appearance and modifications, satellite dish and antenna installations, security and doorbell cameras, flags, signs, sports equipment, grills and fire pits, seasonal decorations, decorative plant containers, storage pods, vehicles (including recreational and work/commercial vehicles), and guest parking as they pertain to both common and limited-common elements. **
