From little league parades to its Tuesday farmers market, Lemont boasts all the characteristics of small town charm, a primary reason the southwest suburban community entertains generation after generation as well as a surplus of new residents.

A community with roots in the mid-1800s, Lemont, but a 30-minute drive from Chicago's downtown, has evolved into one of the Southland's quiet gems despite the emerging bustle of modern life. Despite a plethora of new communities boosting the town's population, Lemont has maintained its cozy feel as much as its rolling terrain and waterway views.

Against the backdrop of this Rockwell-esque portrait, Castletown Homes is now developing 20 luxury homes in The Glens of Connemara community. Many of the lots find themselves bordering golf course property, park land, cul-de-sacs, or Ludwig's Farm, a Lemont staple. Such locations provide homeowners scenic views, safety, and privacy.

With the opening of the I-355 extension in November, Lemont inherits an exit at 127th Street, thereby easing traffic and providing Lemont with a quick, convenient connection to Chicago's west and northwest suburbs as well as the Stevenson Expressway (I-55).
