Wildwood

Wildwood, situated within Chicago's Forest Glen Community Area, blends suburban tranquility with city convenience. Nestled along the Chicago River’s north branch and surrounded by nature preserves, this neighborhood offers a peaceful, country-living atmosphere, just 15 miles from downtown Chicago.

Wildwood boasts diverse architectural styles, from charming brick cottages to expansive homes in styles like Colonial Revival and Tudor Revival, with prices ranging from $370,000 to over $1 million.

The community is noted for its excellent schools, local amenities, and proximity to the North Branch Trail System, providing a unique living experience despite its Chicago address.

Homes in Wildwood, primarily built in the 1940s, have maintained their value well, and have uniquely larger lots, different from the average city lot. The advantage allows for additions and a nice yard space.
