1980s Two-Story Living at Arlington Heights' Far North End
View Available Homes Call (847) 738-1884Terramere is far-north Arlington Heights' newer chapter — a 1980s subdivision of substantial two-story homes with attached garages, contemporary floor plans, and its own park at the neighborhood's heart.
For buyers who want Arlington Heights schools and services but newer construction than the village core offers, Terramere is usually the first stop — the homes are larger, the systems newer, and the streets purpose-planned around Terramere Park.
Terramere homes typically sell in the $550,000–$800,000 range — a newer-construction premium over the village's mid-century stock, but well below what comparable homes cost on the North Shore. Families upgrading within the northwest suburbs drive steady demand.
The subdivision's signature homes — generous footprints and two-story foyers.
1980s designs with vaulted spaces, many extensively updated.
Homes backing to or facing Terramere Park carry a premium.
Terramere's far-north location means school assignments vary by block between area elementary districts, feeding District 214 high schools including Buffalo Grove High School. School boundaries in the northwest suburbs can vary block by block — always verify your specific address with the district office before purchasing.
Terramere sits near Lake Cook Road's retail corridor, Buffalo Grove's Town Center, and Long Grove's historic downtown, with Route 53 access minutes away for commuters. Explore our full Arlington 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 Terramere 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.
