Variety in Evanston Housing Options


Of the many communities along the North Shore, you might be hard pressed to find a broader selection of home options than exists in Evanston. And in a broad range of pricing as well.



  • Older homes from the 19th Century and early 20th Century: Georgian, farm houses, Cape Cods, bungalows, Dutch Colonial, and more

  • Contemporary condominiums that stretch high above street level to provide stunning lake views

  • Newly built single family homes that are designed to blend into their more established neighboring houses, but with today's amenities

  • Renovated older homes that offer a nod to the past, but with an eye to the needs of today's buyer (design, energy efficiency, cook-friendly kitchens, etc.)

  • Multi-unit properties for the investor or owner-occupied property owner, some from the early 1900's, and others from the mid-century era.

Today's market in Evanston has condominiums that range from $104,000 to $1,195,000.


There are single family homes on the market from $180,000 up to $2,500,000.


Townhomes can be found between $220,000 and $895,000.


And multi-unit properties are currently listed between $235,000 and $1,150,000.



The possibilities are not "endless," but they certainly are bountiful. Evanston is a dynamic city with a rich history and interesting contemporary attitudes shaped in part by the presence of Northwestern University and Evanston Northwestern Healthcare (ENH) Hospital, as well as multiple strong retail centers and a light industrial center.

Come on up and take a look at Evanston!
