Glenview IL Real Estate

Glenview IL Real Estate sales are slightly down for the period ending at the end of May. It is a perfect time to buy a property because the boom is not quite as pronounced as in some other Chicago areas. 2013 showed record sales and that may be why there is a slight pull back.

If you are interested, click the Glenview Real Estate link to see the most current live listings of property for sale or what has sold.

Glenview is a fantastic place to call home, raise a family or just live as a couple or on your own. The Glenview IL Gorvehome prices and property taxes are not as much as some other North Shore communities because it is slightly west of Lake Michigan but one of the most sought after communities available in Chicago Land.

The schools are very highly rated by Great Schools and there is a top notch part district that offers anything a person or family would want in recreation. Indoor Ice Skating, a huge swimming Pool an indoor running (or walking ) track and so much more. There are Nature trails for hiking and photography and the Grove is a very fun place to visit with shopping, fine dining and every amenity you could want plus more.

I quote the Glenview Park District:

"The Grove is 135 acres of ecologically diverse prairie grove land preserved and maintained by the Glenview Park District. The Grove was the home of visionary horticulturist and educator Dr. John Kennicott who brought his family from New Orleans to settle on this land in 1836. It was here that Dr. John’s son Robert Kennicott developed his love of nature that led to such accomplishments as exhibiting his plant and animal specimen collections at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., founding the Chicago Academy of Sciences and the exploration of Russian America that led to the purchase of Alaska. Because of its rich history, The Grove was designated a National Historic Landmark by the U.S. Department of the Interior in 1976. It is on the National Registry of Historic Places. The Grove is a partner with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Chicago Wilderness."
