About Mettawa

Gated estates, equestrian land, and Stevenson enrollment

Mettawa is unique in D125 — and in all of Lake County. Its 5-acre minimum lot ordinance means this can never become a conventional subdivision. Every property is an estate. Many include equestrian facilities. The Equestrian Connection facility referenced in Kildeer serves this broader area as well.

The portion of Mettawa inside D125 is one of the most sought-after combinations in the northern suburbs: estate-scale privacy, preserved natural land, and enrollment at Illinois's #1 ranked high school. Price points typically start at $1.5M and climb well above $3M for larger properties.

👑

5-acre minimum by ordinance

Mettawa's zoning ordinance requires a minimum of 5 acres per residential lot. This is protected by law — the estate character is permanent, not just a current trend.

🐴

Equestrian properties

Many Mettawa properties include equestrian facilities — stables, paddocks, riding areas. One of very few communities in D125 where true equestrian living is possible.

🔒

Supreme privacy

Gated entries, long private drives, setbacks measured in acres. Mettawa offers a level of privacy that is genuinely rare this close to Chicago's northern corporate corridor.

🎓

Stevenson High School
