Libertyville Real Estate

Located about 30 miles north of Chicago, the Village of Libertyville in Lake County, Illinois is quickly garnering the attention it deserves for its quality of life. Libertyville's amazing people, places, amenities, culture and real estate market have combined to create one of Chicago's most respected suburban communities. In recent years, Libertyville was named as one of the "Top 100 Best Places to Live" by CNNMoney.com, based on the criteria that focused on a combination of "economic opportunity, good schools, safe streets, thing to do and a real sense of community." Libertyville easily fits the requirements for the honor.

The recognition of Libertyville's quality of life is due in part to its location which allows great outdoors to be explored by residents and visitors. Fishing and swimming are popular excursions at the nearby Des Plaines River and the village has four lakes located nearby including Lake Michigan. Libertyville also has something for land lovers, with six miles of trails that connect parks to neighborhoods and even commercial areas. The Illinois Nature Preserves has even granted two local open spaces, Liberty Prairie and Oak Openings, the highest of protection status to ensure that these areas are available for future generations to enjoy.

A sense of community is everywhere in Libertyville and is highlighted in the downtown area, the pride of the village. Mostly destroyed by a fire in 1895, today Libertyville's downtown area is recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation with the "Great American Main Street Award". Downtown is characterized by the brick used for reconstruction after the fire, creating a village center with nearly exact architectural style. Downtown Libertyville isn't just beautiful to look at; it's a great place to spend time with family and to patronize local shops and restaurants. Taking a stroll down the streets you can find a bakery, boutique shops, gourmet coffee cafes, a microbrewery and much more. Other local museums, restaurants, fairs and festivals provide Libertyville residents with a culture and heritage that is continuous source of pride.

Libertyville's schools are widely-known for their excellence and regularly score above the state average in academic achievements and test results. Libertyville also offers its residents full government services, eliminating the service fees added through separate taxing districts that often occur in similarly-sized villages in the area. Real estate in Libertyville is known for its many styles and price ranges that offer something for everyone. Commuting to Chicago for work or its world-class attractions is easy in a car, train or bus. Collectively, these amenities make Libertyville an incredible place to find your next home.
