Blue Island – Deer Point

Deer PointTucked alongside two of Chicago’s most historic South Side neighborhoods, Beverly and Morgan Park, Blue Island blends a rich history spanning some 180 years with the promise of the future, city leaders even challenging residents to “Think outside the Loop.”
With its tree-lined streets and rising home values, Blue Island pairs the charm and stability of suburban living alongside the convenience of urban amenities. Located just 16 miles southwest of Chicago’s bustling downtown core, Blue Island residents can enjoy short trips to the Loop via the village’s Metra rail station or Interstate 57, but also a range of shopping, dining, and recreational opportunities in their immediate vicinity.
A diverse, tight-knit community of 24,000 residents, Blue Island strives to be a safe, family friendly village rich in community spirit and quality of life. Residents can take pleasure in summertime TGIF community picnics, year-round recreational programming at the city’s 10 public parks, and the newly completed Calumet-Sag Trail, a 26-mile multi-use trail hugging the banks of the Calumet-Sag Channel and the Calumet River.
At Deer Point, a new home community spotted on Blue Island’s western edge, Greystone Homes offers five different single-family homes plans, including three two-story options and two split-level plans, starting at $165,000.
