Evanston Real Estate
Home to Northwestern University, Evanston is a community located just north of Chicago that is set upon Lake Michigan, a spectacular backdrop befitting of such a charming town. Its many parks and lakeshore paths, ancient trees and lush greenery, impressive homes and thriving commercial district make Evanston an entirely self-contained community. Less a suburb and more of a city in its own right, Evanston offers the benefits of city-like living devoid its many hassles. Despite never having to leave Evanston, residents are conveniently served by a range of public transportation options (including the CTA’s Purple Line) allowing for easy entry to Chicago’s downtown (11 miles south).

Evanston Real Estate
Exploding with culture, Evanston is home to five museums, many art galleries, a symphony orchestra and several theater groups. Equally, much of Evanston’s older architecture is of historical significance, the Charles Gates Dawes House and the Gross Point Lighthouse being two such examples. And, with Northwestern University as its pulse, tons of fun restaurants, bars, and other entertainment venues line Evanston streets. Other of the suburb’s benefits include access to a first-rate golf course in the heart of town, the Evanston Dog Beach, the Lakeshore Arts Festival, the Evanston Ethnic Arts Festival and Merrick Rose Garden, a tranquil enclave overflowing with delicate beauty.
As if the above weren’t reason enough to choose Evanston for your home, its real estate should clinch the deal. A lack of cookie-cutter developments helps to emphasize the sheer variety of architectural styles present in the community. Wether your taste leans toward the more traditional or the modern, there is a home for you. In fact, with such a diversity of styles as your real estate palette, narrowing your decision might be the greatest challenge you face when home-hunting in Evanston.
While there are plenty of grand estates and old mansions found along spacious avenues, more affordable options exist in the form of split-levels, brick ranches and mid-century residences. Condominiums and town-homes are also available. On the other end of the spectrum, expansive homes, some with as many as eight bedrooms, come in every form. Vintage homes with pillared entryways and one-off original embellishments sit next door to renovated residences featuring skylights and open floor plans. Whatever your tastes, Evanston real estate is sure to be accommodating. And, no matter what choice you make, you’ll likely benefit from a garage and landscaped yard, as well as Evanston’s unmistakably charming ambience.
