Cook County
Real estate in Oak Park, IL.
Oak Park
Oak Park is the rare suburb where the housing itself is the attraction. Wright's own house and studio are here, along with a concentration of Prairie School and Victorian architecture that draws people from well outside the region.
It is walkable, served by both the Green and Blue Lines and the UP-West Metra, and priced accordingly. Buying a period house here means buying its maintenance schedule too, and that is worth going into with open eyes.
What the housing looks like
- Prairie School and Victorian houses in the historic districts
- Foursquares and bungalows on tree-lined blocks
- Vintage courtyard condo buildings near the transit lines
