Meridian Porter maintains an active presence in Illinois with two communities on the north shore and northwest suburbs. In Green Oaks, the builder's Arbor Lakes community anchors the higher end of the lineup, featuring the Wellington floor plan and priced near the million-dollar mark for buyers seeking a more move-up, luxury-oriented product. Further northwest in Wauconda, Highland Terrace stands out as the larger of the two communities by floor plan count, offering a deeper lineup that includes the Aberdeen, Bristol, Edinburgh, Emerald, Inverness, Stanford, Stirling, and Sutherland models, with entry pricing well below Arbor Lakes and construction still underway. Between these two communities, Meridian Porter covers a meaningful price spread within the Lake County market, giving buyers a choice between an established luxury enclave and a still-developing neighborhood with more plan variety and accessible pricing. Overall, this builder's Illinois footprint suits buyers who want new construction flexibility, whether they're targeting a higher-budget custom-feel home in Green Oaks or a more moderately priced, actively selling floor plan in Wauconda.
