Do you fantasize about a Pinterest-perfect home in a quiet neighborhood with a convenient location? Well, stop dreaming and start building! The Chicago suburbs offer a sweet spot that's hard to beat.
In this blog, we'll dive into the numerous benefits of settling down in the suburbs of the Windy City, and why Overstreet Builders is the top choice for custom homes in this area.
Access to the City, Without the Hassle
Big cities have lost their allure in recent years. Increasing crime rates, overcrowding, and the high cost of living have driven people to seek refuge in better areas . But what if you still want the convenience and excitement that a city provides?
Living in the suburbs doesn't mean you're stuck in the boonies. The Chicago suburbs offer:
- Easy access to the city's world-class dining, shopping, and entertainment.
- A reprieve from the city's traffic and noise.
- More house (and yard) for your money.
Our Signature Neighborhoods in Elgin and Naperville put you within an hour's drive of downtown Chicago. So, you can enjoy all the perks of urban living without sacrificing your sanity or wallet.
A Community That Feels Like Family
Families are flocking to the suburbs for their tight-knit communities and friendly neighbors. What's it like living in the Chicago suburbs? Here you'll find:
- Excellent schools for the kiddos.
- Community events that bring everyone together.
- Safe neighborhoods where you can actually get to know your neighbors.
Located within the esteemed Indian Prairie School District , our Ashwood Park community ensures that your family will have access to top-tier education, exceptional test scores, and victorious athletic teams from elementary school through graduation.
And Elgin, Naperville , and other areas we build in have annual festivals, farmer's markets, and parades that draw people together. You'll be proud to call the Chicago suburbs home!
A Breath of Fresh Air and Space to Breathe
Instead of cramming into a tiny apartment or condo, why not have room to spread out and enjoy some fresh air?
Unlike the cramped quarters of the city:
- You'll have ample yard space for barbecues, gardening, or just soaking up the sun.
- Parks and nature reserves are aplenty, providing a serene escape from the hustle and bustle.
- The air is fresher, and the pace of life is just a tad slower.
One of the first things you'll notice about building a home in the Chicago suburbs is the amount of space you’ll have. Most of our lots are big enough to not only fit sprawling floor plans of up to 4,461+ square feet but also a yard for activities and relaxation.
We also offer the option to build on your lot , so you can choose a prime location that fits your lifestyle.
