Northeast Elgin's park-wrapped 1970s neighborhood
View Available Homes Call (847) 738-1884Parkwood sits on Elgin's northeast side, built mostly in the 1970s and 1980s around a network of parks and greenways that give the neighborhood its name. Single-family sections mix with the Parkwood Farms townhomes, keeping several price points in play.
It's a practical, family-oriented pocket: sidewalks, mature trees, and one of the easiest commutes in Elgin thanks to the nearby I-90 ramp.
Single-family homes have recently traded around $300K–$365K, with Parkwood Farms townhomes in the $280K–$336K range — steady, affordable, and quick-moving when priced right.
Three- and four-bedroom homes from the neighborhood's 1970s core.
Single-level and multi-level options that dominate the original sections.
Attached two- and three-bedroom homes providing the entry point.
Parkwood is served by School District U-46. School boundaries in the northwest suburbs can vary block by block — always verify your specific address with the district office before purchasing.
