Snapping Turtle is a residential neighborhood on Chicago’s Southwest Side, anchored by the 46-acre Marquette Park. The park provides direct access to paved walking and jogging paths, open athletic fields, and the Marquette Park Golf Course. The park’s central lagoon supports seasonal fishing and is bordered by mature trees that offer shade along the shoreline. Several playgrounds and tennis courts are located within short walking distance of surrounding blocks. The CTA Orange Line’s Western Avenue station sits two blocks from the park entrance, connecting residents to the Loop in approximately 20 minutes. Daily shopping needs are met by the retail corridor along 63rd Street, which includes a full-service grocery store and pharmacy. Street parking is widely available on residential blocks, and most single-family homes have detached garages. The neighborhood’s grid layout places nearly every residence within a five-minute walk of green space or transit.
Snapping Turtle currently has 5 single family homes for sale, 5 condos for sale, and 6 lots for sale. There is 1 foreclosure for sale. For anyone looking for a brand new home, there are 9 new construction homes for sale.
