Glenbrook High School District, serving The Glen, named #1 in Illinois

August 8, 2019 by Margaret Ludemann

Yet another award for the high school serving The Glen and greater Glenview, Illinois!  In April, I wrote a blog about Glenbrook South High School receiving a Project Lead the Way Distinguished School Award.  Project Lead the Way is a non-profit that works with schools to promote excellence in computer science, engineering and bio-medical science.  A previous ranking by Niche.com named the school one of the top 30 in the country (the country!) and #1 for extracurricular activities.  Adding to those prestigious awards comes the recently announced recognition, also by Niche.com, naming Glenbrook High School District 225 as the best in Illinois with a rating of A+.

My son recently graduated from Glenbrook South High School, and he’ll be heading to college in a few weeks.  Those of us who live in The Glen are fortunate to have one of the best high schools in the nation to educate our children.  In fact, quality of schools was the principle reason my family moved here 16 years ago.

The Glen is a residential and retail development with luxury homes of all types including single family, town homes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condos.  If you want to learn more about living in The Glen and about homes for sale, please contact me.  I’m an award-winning Realtor focusing on Glen homes.

The Book Market in The Glen. Books. Gifts. (And…a Puppet Theater?)

September 11, 2018 by Margaret Ludemann

Ask anyone in The Glen (in Glenview Illinois) about our local book store, and you’ll hear rave reviews.  “The Book Market at Hangar One” in Glen Town Center features new releases, bestsellers, bargain books, educational toys, gifts, soft seating, free family events, a kid’s corner, and a place to study or read.  So, not only is it a cool place to find great books, but it’s also a wonderful place for kids, families and fun.

I’ve always loved book stores.  I enjoy looking through the shelves to find something new or maybe a book I somehow missed.  I can’t tell you how many times in the 15 years I’ve lived in The Glen that I’ve spent a lazy hour or two hanging out in The Book Market exploring, reading and just relaxing.  I’ve also done some shopping, especially for my son when he was a little tyke.

And speaking of little tykes, it’s also such a fun place for kids.  Every month the Book Market sponsors a Puppet Theater.  The next one is at 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 13 featuring Al. E. Gator & Friends.  Other upcoming puppet programs include Dragon Days and Knight Time and The Shoemaker & Elves and the Night Before Christmas.  Another monthly event is Story Time, an interactive themed book reading.

So, whether you’re looking for books or gifts or for a fun place for children, The Book Market is the place for you.  And if you’re looking for a great place to live, consider The Glen.  We have upscale homes of every kind including single family homes, townhomes, duplexes, two-flats and condos.  Home prices range from the $330s to over $2 million.

Give me a call or send me an email.  I am an award-winning Realtor and Glen homeowner.

Gallery Park makes living in The Glen even better

July 18, 2018 by Margaret Ludemann

The Jewel of the Nile is a movie with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner.  It’s also an album by Nice & Smooth.  The Jewel of the Seas is a cruise ship.  Well, The Glen, a residential and retail development in Glenview Illinois, is not the Nile or a movie or a song or a ship…but we do have a jewel.  It’s called Gallery Park, smack dab in the middle of The Glen, for all to see, and all to enjoy.

Gallery Park was developed along with The Glen about 17 years ago, and it is a beloved spot for locals like me.  It is huge, and it offers so much.  There is a lovely lake (Lake Glenview) with fishing allowed in season.  It also has walking and jogging trails, soccer fields, and tennis courts.  When my son was a tyke he enjoyed Little Bear Garden and the water spray area.

The award-winning Glenview Park Center is located adjacent to the park, providing basketball courts, an indoor track, swimming, a water park, pre-school and a tremendous fitness center.

There are many great reasons to live in The Glen.  Gallery Park is but one of them.  We have lovely single family homes, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condos.  We have many to choose from right now.  And Glen Town Center’s restaurants and shops are walking distance from most anywhere in The Glen.  If you may want to live in The Glen, please give me a call at 847-401-1802.  I am an award-winning Realtor and long time Glen homeowner.

High school serving The Glen is in the top 0.001% in USA

August 31, 2017 by Margaret Ludemann

Glenbrook South High School (GBS) is the public high school serving kids in The Glen and greater Glenview.  The Glen is the upscale retail and housing development on the grounds of the former Naval Air Station Glenview.  Over 1300 children of all ages live in The Glen, and 379 attend GBS.

GBS was recently ranked as one of the top high schools in the country!  Niche is a Pittsburgh based company whose analytics identify and rank schools and neighborhoods.  Information is gathered to determine school rankings by compiling data which is collected and monitored by the U.S. Department of Education.  GBS ranked #30 of the more than 26,000 public high schools in the country.  My calculator tells me that this equates to the top 0.001%.  Lotta zeros there!  And it was just last year that Niche ranked GBS as the #1 high school in America for extracurricular activities which include clubs, organizations, music groups and athletic teams.

I’m fortunate that my son is a GBS Titan.  He’s getting an excellent education, and takes part in numerous activities.  I’m proud of him.  I’m proud of GBS.  And I’m proud to live in The Glen.

If you may be interested in living here, too, please contact me.  We have luxury homes of all kinds…single family homes, townhomes, row homes, condos, duplexes and two-flats.  Home prices range from the $300’s to over $2 million.
