About Lake Bluff, Illinois

On the shores of Lake Michigan, Lake Bluff takes full advantage of its location’s natural beauty while providing residents with convenient access to Chicago, located only 30 miles to the south. Situated on a bluff directly over Lake Michigan, Lake Bluff retains its character as a quaint village with a historic business district and richly wooded neighborhoods.

Lake Bluff offers home buyers an exceptional number of housing options. From beautifully restored Victorian cottages and spacious single-family homes to lakefront estates, this community offers everyone the opportunity to appreciate the area’s advantages. For those seeking new construction, carefully-planned developments offer buyers custom-built residences in a variety of contemporary styles.

With 18-hole golf courses, beautifully maintained parks, miles of nature trails, health and fitness centers, and an Olympic-sized swimming pool, Lake Bluff offers limitless options for exercise and relaxation. The communities are home to two symphonies, an art society, and several prestigious colleges and universities. Shopping and dining options are extremely diverse, and residents can take advantage of the many fine shops in their own backyard as well as being a short drive away from several regional malls.
