Glenwood, approximately 25 miles south of downtown Chicago, is a small community that retains the charm and character of its village origins while being within easy reach of the third largest city in the nation. Glenwood’s heart lies in its historic Main Street, where 19th century buildings still play an integral role in residents’ lives. From century-old homes to newly built residences, Glenwood offers home buyers and endless array of possibilities. Whether you’re searching for a single-family home, a custom-built mansion, or a convenient, modern townhouse or condominium, Glenwood’s carefully planned neighborhoods provide home buyers with options that fit every budget.
With a new Metra Rail station on the way, and the village’s recent purchase of an 18-hole golf course, Glenwood is becoming one of the south suburbs’ most appealing communities. The Homewood-Flossmoor Park District, as well as surrounding forest preserves, meets everyone’s needs for recreation, sports, and fitness. Dining and shopping possibilities abound in Glenwood and surrounding area.
