Remington Trails is a neighborhood tucked away in the Round Lake region. This intimate neighborhood is centrally located and surrounded by wildlife and wetlands. Also, commuting or spending a weekend in the city is a breeze as Remington Trails sits between Round Lake and Long Lake Metra Station. These stations provide daily services to Chicago’s Union Station.
“It’s all comprised of town houses, two ends and two centers,” Licensed Realtor at Keller Williams Success Realty Jennifer Beltrame says. “Most of them were built between 2000 and 2005.” These homes are ideal for first-time home buyers or those looking to downsize, as these homes contain around 1,700 sq ft. “They do all the landscaping and shoveling,” Beltrame says. “That part is perfect for those first-timers who aren’t as experienced with maintenance or downsizers who don’t want to have as much maintenance.” These spaces hold an average of two bedrooms and two bathrooms. “The first floor of the town houses is an open concept,” Beltrame says. “Most of them have a fireplace and a slider that walks out to a 10x10 patio space.” This neighborhood also contains some ranch-style properties, around 1,250 square feet. Remington Trails has seen a slight price bump; however, most homes will be priced between $200,000 and $250,000.
The neighborhood is well served, with outdoor recreation at their doorsteps. “You can get to many forests preserves in McHenry County, all the preserves in Lake County, and it sits south of the Chain O’ Lakes,” Beltrame says. Fairfield Park, located south, is where you’ll discover the Millennium Trail, which connects to other nearby forest preserves. This park is also home to highly rated disc golf courses. Hart Hill and Round Lake Skatepark are two other nearby facilities. Hart Hill houses a space for locals to play football, ice skating, soccer, sledding and volleyball.
The Robert Rolek Community Center serves as the headquarters of the park district. Additionally, it’s a community space that hosts several programs and activities throughout the year. Children can explore the ways of life at Children’s Neighborhood Museum. Children can imagine themselves in the real world by becoming a doctor, leading a classroom, or filling up gas. Volo Museum can be another all-day family adventure with its unlimited exhibits of automobile collections. Then, the space includes kid rides and an arcade area. Remington Trails is a hidden gem for those looking for outdoor activities and convenience.
Students can enter schools through the Round Lake Community School District, which holds a C- Niche Grade. Village Elementary School teaches students in grades one to five, and also carries a C- Niche Grade. There are several after-school clubs at the John T. Magee Middle School, including the National Junior Honor Society, Retro Gaming Club, and Environmental Club. Diplomas can be earned from Round Lake High School, which holds a B- Niche grade. On top of their diverse academics, this school provides several programs aimed at finding the highest potential within students.
Folks needing a casual spot for a bite can walk a couple of blocks to Sammie’s, where they specialize in gourmet sandwiches and hotdogs. Otherwise, residents will have to drive about 15 to 20 minutes to reach a plethora of dining options. Eggspress Café is the go-to for breakfast and lunch options. Popular dishes here include the Southern Bell Skillet and French Toast. Folks with a sweet tooth can grab authentic Mexican pastries from La Luz Bakery or grab the refreshing ice cream at La Michoacana. Convenient items can be found within the neighborhood’s CVS Pharmacy. Grocery essentials can be grabbed from Mendoza Grocery, located on N Cedar Lake Rd.
