About this property

Step into the Past: Stylish 1970s Mid-Century VRBO for a Vintage Getaway!

This unique Mid-Century home built in 1971, but recently restored and decorated is ready for your group to rent and enjoy! Located in the wonderful Village of Glen Ellyn just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago! It is decorated entirely with 1960s/70s items to give you an amazingly unique stay! When you first step inside you immediately discover the inviting expanse of this home, where a vaulted ceiling and seamless open floor plan unite the foyer, great room, kitchen, dining area, and sitting room. These spaces are elevated by the presence of vintage Pella sliding doors/windows that infuse the area with abundant natural light. Upstairs, the trio of bedrooms awaits.

All three bedrooms are nestled on the upper level. The primary bedroom boasts a king bed, while the guest bedrooms feature queen beds. The master bedroom houses a private bathroom, and the guest bathroom showcases an expansive bathtub.

Experience nostalgia with a vintage 1964 RCA record player complete with a treasure trove of classic records. Bask in the outdoors on the charming patio, complete with patio string lights and a convenient charcoal grill for al fresco dining, all right next to the kitchen for easy access while cooking and entertaining.

Venture downstairs to the spacious, comfortable basement, adorned with a generous sectional and a large screen TV. Engage in retro delight with vintage board games, accompanied by a second vintage stereo setup featuring a selection of groovy records. Alternatively, utilize this space as a serene workstation.

Groovy stay!!!

Super fun stay at this beautiful mid-century home! Ryan did a great job of making it feel like a time warp and stepping into the past. Well stocked home and furnished - we had everything we needed. Safe neighborhood and well positioned where we were 10-15 minutes from so much in the area - arboretum, Whole Foods, great restaurants, colleges, etc. Ryan was an incredible host and responsive to questions and proactive with information. Many thanks! Highly recommend staying here!

40th Reunion

Unfortunately, the road was a total construction zone for apparent sewer/water lines in process of being dug underground...once in the driveway, obtaining the access code took an extra call to VRBO customer service but, after that, everything was wonderful! A very spacious, 3-bedroom home with a great entertainment room in the basement and fully functional kitchen--it was great being able to prepare our own breakfast each day. (Note: we tried the jukebox in the living room, but couldn't get any selections to work.) The master bedroom ensuite was nice but the bathroom could be improved with a slightly larger vanity with counterspace for personal toiletries and a more functional shower, e.g., a glass wall vs. a shower curtain, a grab bar, and a shower pole to adjust the height of the shower head. Location-wise, easy access to Jewel-Osco and Trader Joe's as well as a short drive to Wheaton College. Thanks, Ryan, for accommodating an early check-in--much appreciated!
