Silver Lake North has quiet streets near shops and green space
Similar to other Orland Park communities, neat subdivisions comprise the Silver Lake North neighborhood, a mostly residential zone known for its high-quality schools and access to amenities in the village center. “The school system is in high demand, and the location is convenient for shopping and eating,” says Rick Wyrick, a broker with RE/MAX 1st Service. Numerous retail developments, including the Orland Square shopping mall, line La Grange Road. Two country clubs, both sporting golf courses open to the public, provide scenic green space and bespoke venues for weddings, banquets and other events. Within the neighborhood, quiet residential streets allow short walks to neighborhood parks with popular sledding hills and playgrounds. Even more recreational parks and trails are nearby.
Silver Lake North's varying architecture
"The houses are a little older in Silver Lake North than South, but it's a pretty close-knit community for the size," Wyrick says. These homes, built from the mid-to-late 20th century through the 2000s, present a variety of architectural styles, ranging from ranch and split-level styles to brick-clad New Traditionals and custom builds. Many homes sit within several different subdivisions, which come with homeowners association services, including lawn maintenance and snow removal. Trees provide occasional shade for sidewalks running throughout, and plots average around a half-acre. Single-family homes typically sell between $250,000 and $600,000, although larger homes on more acreage can surpass $800,000. A veritable mansion spanning more than 6,000 square feet sold for nearly $1.5 million in November 2024. Townhomes are also available, priced around $260,000 to $550,000. Condos sell for about $160,000 to $300,000. Silver Lake North has a 2 out of 10 on the CAP Index Crime Score, compared to the national average of 4.
