A cozy suburban village hugged by commuter routes
Decked out with a country club, a commuter rail station and a corridor of local businesses, La Grange is a place where people connect. Even residential areas encourage an element of community. “Houses are placed close together here, so it’s natural for neighbors to get to know each other here,” says Realtor Bryan Bomba of Christie’s International Real Estate. “The houses are aesthetically pleasing, too – the masonry, in particular.” That architectural appeal extends to the downtown area, where locally owned shops inhabit buildings dating as far back as the 1890s. “La Grange really has the perfect blend of both urban amenities and the quiet atmosphere found with suburban living,” says Shannon Kutchek, an award-winning realtor who’s been with Smothers Group at Compass for over 25 years. Tree-lined residential streets and proximity to park space rounds out the identity of La Grange, providing a degree of separation from the busy downtown atmosphere found 16 miles to the east in Chicago’s city center.
La Grange offers residents a dense suburban feel and access to bars, restaurants, and cafes.

Eclectic home styles, starting at $350k
La Grange’s residential streets are filled with an eclectic range of homes, enhancing the village's appeal. Styles include everything from Victorians and Tudors to Modern Traditional homes, American Foursquares and Colonial Revivals. Prices start at $350,000 for modest styles, like brick bungalows, but can extend up to $1.5 million for multi-story homes with renovated interiors. Abundant sidewalks and mature trees ensure that the village is accommodating to pedestrians. And while side yards may be on the slender side as Bomba mentions, most homes are set back on front lawns, creating distance from the sidewalk. Fenced backyards are common, too.
Tudor-style homes grace the La Grange streets.
Dutch colonial-style homes can be found throughout La Grange.

Lyons Township High School provides its students with unique course offerings, including aviation, furniture making, animation and sustainable urban agriculture. It earns an A-plus from Niche.

Sports facilities at Sedgwick Park
When it comes to recreation, Grange Country Club is a prominent fixture in the community. Members can use the golf course, tennis courts, pickleball courts and outdoor swimming pool, or have a meal at the club’s restaurant. Sports enthusiasts can also be found enjoying the facilities at the 23-acre Sedgwick Park. The park contains baseball diamonds, tennis courts, soccer fields, basketball courts, volleyball courts and a picnic pavilion. La Grange is a rather green village, too, with forest preserves just a few blocks north. Salt Creek Woods Nature Preserve provides access to 16 miles of trails that wind alongside Salt Creek, past oak woodlands and restored prairies.

Pubs and cafes in the dining scene
Many of the village's locally owned restaurants are concentrated on South La Grange Road. They tend to have a cozy, homey vibe that focuses on modern American cuisine. For instance, Blueberry Hill Café is a breakfast spot serving crowd-pleasers like avocado toast and Nutella crepes. Palmer Place is a reliable standby that’s been open since 1983, fulfilling the role of a community pub with hot eats and cool drinks. Continuing the theme of options in La Grange, residents can shop for groceries at Trader Joe’s, Mariano’s or Jewel-Osco. On Thursday afternoons between May and October, there’s also the option to visit the La Grange Farmers Market on Harris Avenue, which offers locally grown produce, baked goods, flowers and more.

Train stations and expressways
Commuters have great options in La Grange. The village sits between the Tri-State Tollway and the Stevenson Expressway, plus there are multiple train stations on Hillgrove Avenue. La Grange also prides itself on having a leafy, small-town suburban feel, so the residential areas are certainly pedestrian-friendly. Car and bus traffic increases along South La Grange Road, which runs north-south through the village. This adds a busy quality to La Grange and increases noise levels close to the area.
