Distinctive Homes in One of Prospect Heights' Premium Pockets
View Available Homes Call (847) 738-1884The Shires is one of Prospect Heights' premium small neighborhoods — distinctive homes on the city's trademark generous lots, with recent sales approaching $700,000.
Small neighborhoods like this rarely list; when they do, buyers already watching the area move fast. That's where a locally embedded team earns its keep.
Recent Shires sales have been in the $690,000 range, placing it in Prospect Heights' upper tier. With only a handful of homes changing hands in any year, comparable knowledge and early awareness matter more than anywhere.
Individual designs over cookie-cutter.
The land that underwrites the values.
Modernized properties at the neighborhood's top.
Shires students attend Prospect Heights District 23 schools and District 214 high schools — verify your block's assignment with the district. School boundaries in the northwest suburbs can vary block by block — always verify your specific address with the district office before purchasing.
The full Prospect Heights package surrounds it: golf, the slough preserves, Metra rail, and Randhurst Village's shopping minutes away. Explore our full Prospect Heights guide →
Our MLS runs a Private Listing Network — real listings agents can see that never appear on Zillow or any public site, because the sellers want privacy. We can't advertise them. What we can do is share matches directly with our own buyers. If The Shires is where you want to be, tell us exactly what you're looking for — we'll watch the private side for you, and we'll only contact you about that.
