Meadow Glens
Meadow Glens Elementary School makes the grade
Public school students are served by the Naperville Community Unit School District 203, rated an overall A-plus on Niche. The elementary school in the neighborhood is Meadow Glens Elementary, which also has an A-plus rating. Niche rates it as the best elementary school out of 143 in DuPage County and fifth best in the Chicago area out of over 1,400. “It’s a great school because the parents are involved,” Leavenworth says. “They put a strong emphasis on reading and reading comprehension.” Lincoln Junior High School gets an A on Niche and has a 14-to-1 student-teacher ratio. Naperville Central High School receives an A-plus overall rating on Niche. The school offers world and classical language classes, including Chinese and American Sign Language.DuPage River flows by
Every spring, a team of volunteers along the DuPage River get together to do a sweep to help clean up the waterway. That includes the stretch that flows in the western portion of the neighborhood. Fishing is a popular activity on the river, and smallmouth bass is a popular catch. The West Branch DuPage River Trail runs 33 miles and follows the river. It’s used by bikers, walkers and even cross-country skiers in the winter. Meadow Glens Park has a paved trail encompassing the green space, which includes a baseball and soccer field. Multiple basketball courts, a playground and a gazebo are outside the trail.Shopping options
Two major grocery stores are in the neighborhood in small shopping centers across the street from one another. Jewel-Osco is in the Market Meadows Shopping Center, and Mariano’s is in the Fox Run Square Shopping Center on Naper Boulevard near the intersection of Hobson Road. “There are two Starbucks and one of the best Chinese food restaurants in the area,” Leavenworth says. “If it’s not in the neighborhood, you probably don’t need it.” Two Starbucks locations are in the Fox Run Square Shopping Center, including one inside the Mariano’s. House of Emperor is a family-owned restaurant with inside seating available and various “Best of Naperville” plaques on the wall. Kids and adults with musical aspirations can take lessons and attend camps to hone their craft at Bach to Rock Music School.Well-built homes in Meadow Glens
The oldest houses are from the 1970s and have at least 2,000 square feet with split-level and two-story homes. The range is between $500,000 and $650,000. “It’s getting to the point where you can’t get into a quality house here for under $500,000,” Leavenworth says. The high end of the range bumps up to $700,000 in the Meadows subdivision, where Colonial Revival and smaller ranch-style houses built in the 1980s contribute to the variety. Larger estates are in the more modern Meadow Glens subdivision, where the price ranges from $750,000 to $950,000. There are mainly two-story contemporary houses, some of which have Queen Anne influences.
Equidistant to two major airports
The neighborhood is about as equidistant as possible from the two major Chicago airports. Twenty-six miles to the north is O’Hare International Airport. It’s the same distance east to get to Midway International Airport. A car is needed to get to public transportation as the Naperville Metra commuter rail station is 5 miles to the north in the downtown Naperville area. Interstates 355, 88 and 55 are close to the east, north and south.
