Country Highlands Townhomes

Buyers often assume a set price range means consistent condition, but this is one of the older townhome communities in Oak Park, so condition varies a lot from one home to the next. A handful of homes have been renovated and are move-in ready, while others are still original and will need work. The listing photos matter more here than in a newer community.

Homes here typically run $750k-$850k. That range reflects both the renovated homes and the ones still waiting on an update, so where a specific listing lands often comes down to condition more than square footage.

Country Highlands is one of Oak Park’s older townhome communities, so you’ll find more variation from home to home than in some of the newer developments. Some have been nicely remodeled while others still have their original finishes, which gives buyers a wider range of price points and opportunities depending on how much updating they’re willing to take on.

Capri was built about a decade later, so the finishes tend to be more consistent from unit to unit. Country Highlands trades some of that consistency for an older, more established feel and a slightly lower entry price on the unrenovated end.

It fits buyers who are comfortable taking on some renovation work, or who specifically want one of the units that’s already been updated. If a fully done, move-in ready home matters more than getting into Oak Park at this price point, it’s worth being selective about which listing you look at here.

It depends on what you’d rather manage: a higher price now, or renovation costs and timeline later. A renovated unit costs more upfront but comes with fewer surprises. An original unit gives you more room to negotiate, but budget realistically for the work before you get attached to the price.
