Roselle is a modern Milwaukee West Line Station with two low-level platforms, a short ways east of Irving Park Road that has an underpass under the tracks. The inbound platform has a large modern brick station house with arches outside of it facing the platform towards it's western end. There is a central tower area with Roselle etched into the depot. The station was dedicated (or last renovated) in August 2005. This station has an indoor waiting area with a wooden bench and a Tazza Coffee stand, along with a ticket office opened for one weekday morning shift. The outbound platform lacks amenities for waiting passengers. The two platforms are connected by 3 pedestrian grade-crossings, one at each end and one in the middle.

The inbound platform leads to a small parking lot to the west and east of the depot along Irving Park Road. The outbound platform has a larger parking lot. This includes a small covered bike parking rack. Access to this parking lot is from the north via driveways on both sides (forming a one-way loop) off of Lawrence Avenue, surrounding the Sternberg Lighting factory.
