Lakeview

South of Uptown and bordered on the east by Lake Michigan is the vital, well-established community of Lakeview. Known as much for its active community spirit as for being the home of Wrigley Field and the Chicago Cubs, Lakeview real estate offers an entrancing mix of housing alternatives, including classic Chicago-style single-family residences and many large greystones. Along the lakefront are numerous high-rise condominiums. West of the lake are neighborhoods of quiet, tree-lined streets featuring rehabbed vintage apartments and condos, two- and three-flat buildings, converted storefronts, and spacious lofts. Lakeview’s stunning shoreline offers residents a wealth of beach-oriented activities, including boating, swimming, fishing, running, and a thriving beach volleyball scene. The community is also culturally adventurous, with sports bars standing shoulder-to-shoulder, exceptional restaurants, galleries, theaters, clubs, and some of Chicago’s most eclectic shopping areas. Lakeview is also the site of the totem pole of Kwansusila and a key locale of the Chicago Marathon and Bike-the-Drive.

REAL ESTATE

Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood is a luxurious and charming area filled with lush greenery, grand homes, and pristine streets. Its winding walkways, lined with Victorian-style street lamps, lead to peaceful parks, convenient stores, and elegant restaurants. In the summertime, locals can relax on Lake Michigan's shores or stroll along the tree-lined sidewalks, admiring the stately homes that dot the landscape.
