About Wheeling, Illinois

Just 25 miles northwest of Chicago, bordering the Des Plaines River, Wheeling is surrounded by forests and offers a peaceful yet cosmopolitan retreat from city life. Home buyers can find custom-built mansions, single-family homes in a variety of styles and price ranges, as well as sophisticated townhouses and condominiums. Wheeling's park district contains nine parks, a competitive 18-hole golf course, as well as an aquatic center. Residents can also take full advantage of 1,000 acres of forest preserve land in the surrounding area, with hiking trails and bicycling paths as well as access to the scenic Des Plaines River. Wheeling is home to both gourmet dining and family-friendly eateries, and residents have many shopping options both in their own community as well as at nearby malls. Festivals and celebrations, like Summerfest and special holiday events bring everyone together year-round.
