Shore Highlands House for Sale

Shore Highlands in Waukegan offers a mix of historical and newer homes, with single-story ranch-style and split-level designs prevalent. Many properties feature over an acre of land, though some are at a slight risk of flooding near the small pond off Highland Avenue. The neighborhood lacks sidewalks, but mature trees provide ample shade. Hinkston Park, just over a mile away, is a local favorite, featuring The Field House Sports Fitness & Aquatics Center with extensive amenities, including a gym, climbing wall, and pools. Shore Highlands is conveniently located near shopping and dining options, with a Jewel-Osco less than a mile away and Grand Avenue offering a variety of retail and dining choices, including Hispanic grocery stores and restaurants like El Sabrocito and Quonset Pizza. The neighborhood is adjacent to Gurnee, home to attractions such as Six Flags Great America and Gurnee Mills Mall. Outdoor activities abound with nearby forest preserves, a dog park, and the Bonnie Brook Golf Course. Shore Highlands is 6 miles from Lake Michigan's beaches and parks. While primarily car-dependent, a bus line runs along Green Bay Road, and downtown Waukegan, with its Metra stop to Chicago, is 4 miles away. Schools in the area vary, with Waukegan Community School District 60 on the east side of Green Bay Road and Gurnee Public Schools on the west, the latter receiving a higher overall rating.
