Community of convenience in Palatine

Capri Village is an amenities haven squarely between Deer Grove Forest Preserve and Buffalo Creek Forest Preserve. These two preserves provide a peaceful escape from the traffic sounds of well-traveled roads surrounding the community. Within the community, residents appreciate the slower pace along cul-de-sacs and apartment complexes, with the convenience factor of having Illinois Route 53, Rand, Dundee and Lake Cook roads nearby to travel to the lines of shops and restaurants throughout Palatine. As a part of Palatine, Capri Village residents enjoy the many offerings of the Village throughout the year. “Palatine has a nice downtown area, train access to the city, good forest preserves, and family life, so people are out and about with those missions,” says Rhonda Dehn, Owner of Morkes Chocolates, who has lived in the area for more than fifty years.

Capri Village and other subdivisions

Apartments and renters comprise close to 50% of the neighborhood. Of the houses divided among subdivisions and side streets, most date back to the late 1950s, with some built as recently as the mid-2000s. Mid-size single-family homes have ranch-style and Colonial Revival architecture, often with garages at the end of private driveways. Homes list between $190,000 and $545,000, with a median single-family home price of $355,000. Two-bedroom condos mark the low end of this range, with a five-bedroom single-family house on the higher end. In addition to being in one of the most convenient areas of Palatine, Capri Village home prices are more affordable, as they are around $100,000 less than the average in Palatine.

Morkes Chocolates and major retailers

The restaurant scene in Capri Village offers a wide variety of cuisines from all over the world. Los Arcos Mexican Grill is a traditional Mexican restaurant that prides itself on their margaritas and bold flavors. American restaurants are also abundant, including Chicago Culinary Kitchen, which receives high marks for its barbeque, and Gators Wing Shack Grill and Pizza, where they mix wings in a wide assortment of sauces. Satisfying sweet tooth cravings, Morkes Chocolates sells mouthwatering treats with a candy-making history that dates back to 1920. Grocery stores also come in a wide variety, from Tianlai Asian Market to the Indian grocery store Asian Island. Off Dundee Road, a Jewel Osco fills additional grocery needs right next to Deer Grove Centre, where locals shop the racks at major retailers, including Target and Hobby Lobby.

Falcon and Osage neighborhood parks

Though the two forest preserves are just outside Capri Village, this neighborhood also has two of its own parks. Falcon Park is home to a 49,000-square-foot recreation center with a gymnasium, indoor turf field and walking track. Across the road, Osage Park provides nearly 8 acres of entertainment, from cycling and walking paths that pass by the mulch-covered playground to softball and baseball fields.

Palatine Jaycees hosts seasonal events

Capri Village residents are treated to the many events held in Palatine. “There is a Fourth of July four-day event put on by the Jaycees and a summer weekend event in August put on by the Village of Palatine,” Dehn says. “In September, the Rotary puts on an Oktoberfest event, but there are also a few other smaller events throughout the year.” With proximity to multiple forms of travel, locals appreciate short commutes to these events and neighboring forest preserves for quality time with community members.
