Lincolnshire Woodlands is a Tree City USA
For nearly four decades, the village of Lincolnshire has been deemed a Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation. The northeast residential enclave of Lincolnshire Woodlands is no exception. “It’s like we’re under one big canopy,” says Village Manager Brad Burke. “The connection with nature of one of the biggest reasons people are drawn here.” From nearby conservation areas to rolling greenways, the area offers no shortage of outdoor recreation among the foliage. All of the greenery pairs with acre lot sizes, nearby big-box stops and the highest-ranked school district in the country according to Niche. Additionally, a CAP Index crime score of 1, compared to the national average of 4, has turned Lincolnshire Woodlands into something of a haven just 30 miles north of Chicago.
Lincolnshire Woodlands is the perfect neighborhood to appreciate the beauty of the seasons.

Colonial, Georgian and Creole architectural styles
Many of Lincolnshire’s trees line the quiet residential streets of Lincolnshire Woodlands. Homes with traditional architecture—featuring Colonial, Georgian and even Creole façades—rest on acre lots with well-manicured lawns blending seamlessly into the natural landscape. These homes were primarily constructed between the midcentury and early 2000s, typically priced between $750,000 and $1.5 million. Ranch-style homes and bilevels are as common as the custom builds they neighbor, at times offering the same square footage for $450,000 to $750,000. “The housing stock is broader than what you’ll find in surrounding areas, too,” Burke says, referring to the neighborhood’s selection of townhomes at Sutton Place. Occupying a handful of streets between Westminster Way and Sutton Court, these properties offer attached garages with paved driveways priced between $350,000 and $525,000.

From conservation areas to the rolling hills of Ravinia Green Country Club
Named after Lincolnshire’s first mayor, Balzer Park rests in a wooded enclave next door to Sutton Place. Walking paths weave beneath the trees, leading to the park’s playground, basketball and tennis courts, also accessible from Windsor Drive. Residents farther north tend to frequent Memorial Park, where paved trails orient around modest, maintained gardens. Those seeking a more immersive natural experience can head 2 miles south to the Edward L. Ryerson Conservation Area, a protected space popular for hiking in the summer and cross-country skiing in the winter. Golfers gather at the Ravinia Green Country Club just south of Duffy Lane. A clubhouse and state-of-the-art fitness center accompany the 6,866-yard, 18-hole course shaded by old-growth weeping willows. The club offers programming for all ages and a robust calendar of tournaments for competitive players.

String lights on the patio at Wright’s Brew & Bistro
While Downtown Chicago is a 30-mile commute on Interstate 94, residents of Lincolnshire Woodlands tend to stay closer to home thanks to nearby corporate offices along the interstate and the village’s thriving shopping and dining scene. “People rave about Wildfire, a steakhouse on the other side of the river,” Burke says in regard to the upscale American chain off Route 40. “But I prefer Wright’s Brew & Bistro at the Lincolnshire Marriott because of the wooded features and laid-back atmosphere.” The restaurant’s patio out back twinkles under the glow of string lights and nearby firepits. There, patrons browse a full menu of cocktail flights, burgers and brews. As for the essentials, residents can head 3 miles east on Route 22 for Mariano’s supermarket or 4 miles south on Route 45 for Woodman’s Food Market. Additionally, Costco Wholesale sits 3 miles up I-94.
Wright’s Brew & Bistro serves classic American fare out of the Lincolnshire Marriott.

Riding the Metra into Downtown Chicago
Residents of Lincolnshire Woodlands are mostly car-dependent, considering bus service is not provided and bake lanes are scarce. However, cyclists can easily reach the neighboring town of Half Day via a separate bike path that parallels Route 22, crossing the Des Plaines River. The nearest emergency room is located at Endeavor Health Highland Park Hospital, 6 miles east, while Downtown Chicago is 30 miles south on I-94. Many opt to take the Metra out of the Lake Forest or Lake Cook Road stations instead, each offering an hour’s ride into the city. Those traveling out of state typically fly out of Chicago O’Hare International Airport, 17 miles south on Route 45.
The local Metra Line provides public transit services in Lincolnshire Woodlands.
