Round Lake Beach Land for Sale - Central Northwest
1.69-ACRE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT SITE — C-3 PUD — ROLLINS ROAD, ROUND LAKE BEACH
Prime 1.69-acre commercial development site on Rollins Road, Round Lake Beach's primary retail corridor, carrying approximately 30,700 vehicles per day (Illinois Department of Transportation, 2023 average annual daily traffic). Zoned C-3 General Business District with a PUD designation, the parcel supports a wide range of retail, restaurant, medical, office and service development. Priced at $563,469 — approximately $333,000 per acre — well positioned against the corridor's national-retail anchors.
WHY THIS SITE WORKS
Rollins Road is where Round Lake Beach shops: the corridor is anchored by national retailers and daily-needs service businesses, and the surrounding communities of Round Lake, Grayslake and Hainesville continue to add rooftops that feed it. A 1.69-acre C-3 parcel on this corridor fits a freestanding retail or medical building, a multi-tenant strip, a restaurant, a child care center, or a service pad — ground-up product this submarket has little of and keeps absorbing. Drive-through formats are achievable as special uses through the village.
THE SITE
1.69 acres on Rollins Rd frontage with approximately 30,700 VPD. Zoned C-3 General Business with a PUD designation. Shovel-ready development opportunity — no demolition or prior structure to unwind. Buyer to verify all site conditions, utilities, entitlements and the recorded PUD plan in due diligence.
LOCATION
Rollins Road is the primary east-west commercial corridor serving Round Lake Beach, Round Lake, Hainesville and the western Grayslake area — one of Lake County's fastest-grown residential concentrations. Easy access to Route 83 and Route 120 connects the site to the broader central Lake County market, and the Rollins Road Metra station (Milwaukee District North) serves the corridor.
