Elm Park sits at the edge of Chicago’s Northwest Side, where the 60-acre park itself anchors daily life for residents. Its central lagoon draws walkers and cyclists who follow the 1.2-mile paved loop that circles the water and links to the North Branch Trail, allowing uninterrupted travel south toward the lakefront. Two lighted baseball diamonds, six tennis courts, and a recently renovated playground sit within a short walk of most surrounding streets. An indoor fieldhouse provides year-round fitness classes and reservable gym space, while outdoor fitness equipment lines the eastern edge near Central Avenue. Street parking is plentiful, and the Kennedy Expressway entrance at Addison is three minutes away by car. The park is book-ended by two CTA Blue Line stations—Belmont to the south and Addison to the north—each roughly a half-mile from the interior, and multiple CTA bus routes run along Diversey and Central. Grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants concentrate along Belmont Avenue, all within a ten-minute walk of the park’s southern boundary.
Elm Park currently has 15 single family homes for sale, 4 townhouses for sale, 46 condos for sale, and 1 lot for sale. There are 3 foreclosures for sale.
