About Kenilworth, Illinois

Just 17 miles north of Chicago, Kenilworth borders Lake Michigan and is the youngest of the prestigious communities that make up Chicago's North Shore. Even Kenilworth's oldest neighborhoods, dating from the late 19th century, were carefully planned to ensure that residents had the highest possible quality of life. Today, home buyers can choose among historic homes, custom-built mansions, single-family homes, and lakeshore estates. A small number of townhouses are available, but no condominium developments exist in the community. Residents enjoy the village's extensive parks as well as its playgrounds, sports fields, swimming pools, and fitness facilities. Shoppers appreciate the stores of Kenilworth's beautiful downtown district as well as the village's convenience to several major malls, and dining possibilities exist to satisfy almost any taste, from sophisticated cuisine to casual fare.
