Considering a Home in Conway Farms?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Conway Farms and the surrounding Chicago North Shore golf market.
Conway Farms is a genuinely purpose-planned Lake Forest neighborhood, developed in step with the adjacent private golf club of the same name: construction ran from the club's 1991 opening through 2006, encompassing single-family homes, condos, and townhomes on tree-lined streets and cul-de-sacs west of Waukegan Road and south of Route 60. The development has its own homeowners association and amenities -- parks, trails, tennis courts, an in-ground pool, an exercise room, a clubhouse, and a party room -- entirely separate from Conway Farms Golf Club's own private facilities. This developer-driven, concurrent-build relationship is what distinguishes Conway Farms from the North Shore's older, organically-grown estate neighborhoods around clubs like Onwentsia or Old Elm.
