Two aspects of North Hinsdale

On the northern side of the railroad tracks from historic downtown Hinsdale is the neighborhood of North Hinsdale, about 20 miles west of downtown Chicago. “You can divide the north part of Hinsdale into two sections: The western part by Monroe Elementary and the eastern by The Lane Elementary,” says J. Maggio, a broker with J. Maggio Group with almost 20 years of experience. He has also lived in the neighborhood for about six years. “The homes in the western part will have larger lots, while the eastern part is denser with some newer construction happening.”

North Hinsdale is located in the vibrant, award-winning city of Hinsdale, IL.

What’s new is old again

Queen Anne, colonial and Tudor revivals are some of the classic architectures found in the neighborhood. “To prevent some of the older homes from being torn down for newer ones, there’s an incentive program that will give homeowners tax freezes or expedited permits to update their property,” Maggio says. R. Harold Zook was a famed suburban Chicago architect who did much of his work in Hinsdale, where he had a home and studio. He is known for developing Tudor and Georgian design houses and more modern styles on ones built in the 1930s and ‘40s. His influence continues to be seen in new construction. “You can see it in the stone construction with the newer homes. You won’t see sticks and bricks,” he adds. The price range runs from $750,000 to $4 million.

Farmers Market by the tracks

The Hinsdale Farmers Market occurs on Chicago Avenue between Garfield and Washington Streets near Burlington Park from June through October.

Instead of the typical weekend for farmers markets, the one in Hinsdale is on Monday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. The butcher shop is alive and well at Prime ‘n’ Tender Meats, family owned and located on York Road since 1985, specializing in oven-ready items and carrying beef, poultry, veal and various deli products. Whether pancakes for breakfast or sandwiches and wraps for lunch, Garden Berry Café is open until 3 p.m. daily, just a few steps from the butcher shop.

Multiple chances to enjoy the outdoors

Burlington Park is named after the Burlington Northern train tracks it’s situated near. The park hosts a weekly summer concert series on Thursdays in June, July and August. It’s part of what the park calls Uniquely Thursdays, with food trucks, beer, and wine. When there’s no special event, there’s plenty of green space, walking paths and numerous benches and picnic tables. The park’s centerpiece is a fountain, which is a popular gathering place. Burns Field Park has tennis and basketball courts, baseball and soccer fields and paddleball courts. A rink is available for ice skating, but the temperatures need to be below freezing for up to six consecutive days to be safe to skate. Peirce Park has several baseball fields, batting cages, a playground, and a concession stand open during baseball games.

Residents of North Hinsdale have access to multiple parks and tennis courts.
