Haverford in Schaumburg

Haverford is a well-positioned townhome community located along Haverford Drive near the intersection of Higgins Road and Plum Grove Road in Schaumburg, Illinois. Developed during the late 1980s and early 1990s, Haverford emerged at a time when Schaumburg was rapidly transforming into one of the Northwest Suburbs’ most desirable residential destinations. The community was designed to meet the growing demand for low-maintenance living without sacrificing space, comfort, or convenience, offering buyers an attractive alternative to traditional single-family homes while still maintaining a distinctly residential neighborhood feel.
 

What makes Haverford especially appealing is the balance it strikes between practicality and livability. The community features spacious two-story townhomes with 2 to 3 bedrooms, attached garages, open-concept living and dining areas, generous primary suites, and private outdoor spaces. Many homes were designed with vaulted ceilings, large windows, fireplaces, and flexible loft or family room layouts that gave residents more usable living space than many competing townhome developments of the era. The floorplans appealed to a wide range of buyers, from young professionals and first-time homeowners to empty nesters looking to simplify without downsizing too drastically.
 

Location has always been one of Haverford’s strongest assets. Situated near Higgins Road, residents enjoy immediate access to Route 53, Interstate 90, and other major transportation corridors that connect Schaumburg to Chicago and the greater Northwest Suburbs. The community is also just minutes from Woodfield Mall, one of the region’s premier shopping and entertainment destinations, along with countless restaurants, retail centers, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences. Nearby parks, forest preserves, and recreational facilities operated by the Schaumburg Park District give residents plenty of opportunities to stay active and enjoy the outdoors without venturing far from home.
 

For many homeowners, Haverford represents the ideal combination of accessibility, comfort, and long-term value. Its quiet interior streets, mature landscaping, and functional home designs have helped the community maintain its appeal for decades. While Schaumburg has continued to evolve around it, Haverford remains the kind of neighborhood that offers dependable suburban living in a location that continues to be highly sought after.
