Walk the home at your own pace.
Across from the Lake.
Waverly Road is one of Highland Park's most sought-after addresses, sitting directly across from Lake Michigan. The home faces the water and the shoreline path, with lakefront parks, the beach, and open water just steps away.
Ravinia Festival, downtown Highland Park's shops and restaurants, and Metra service into Chicago are all within easy reach. It is the kind of street where the drive home slows you down on purpose.
