About This Neighborhood

About Country Gardens

Country Gardens captures what drew families — including ours — to Prospect Heights in the first place: genuinely large lots, mature trees, and solid single-family homes with room to breathe. It's the kind of neighborhood where garden beds, backyard projects and space between neighbors still come standard.

The Dawn Simmons Team lives in Prospect Heights and has for decades — we've walked these blocks, sold these homes, and can tell you what each street is really like before you ever book a showing.

Homes & Market

The Homes of Country Gardens

Country Gardens homes typically sell in the $400,000–$650,000 range depending on lot, size and updates. The oversized lots are the real asset — buyers increasingly pay for land and expansion potential, and well-updated homes on premium lots set the neighborhood's ceiling.

Ranches on Half-Acre-Style Lots

The neighborhood's signature — single-level homes with serious yard space.

Expanded Family Homes

Additions and second stories that grew with their owners.

Renovation & Rebuild Opportunities

Large parcels that reward buyers with vision.
