Refined suburban living on the east side of Bolingbrook
Primarily built by a single home builder over the late 1990s, Hickory Oaks offers a suburban lifestyle that’s lived-in and timeless without feeling out of step with today’s needs. Situated on the west end of Bolingbrook, residents enjoy quick access to shopping, parks and commutes to Naperville and other nearby communities while enjoying a straightforward, easy-paced home life. “It’s a very family-friendly community with newer, contemporary homes,” says Keith Dickerson, a Realtor with Compass.

New traditional homes and split levels built in the 1990s
Gently curved residential streets weave through this community, where late 20th-century single-family homes sit on lanes and cul-de-sacs. Most of the area’s properties were originally developed by local home builders Pasquinelli Homes in the mid-1990s and share a new traditional style. Shared elements include vinyl and brick exteriors, attached garages with driveways and faux exterior shutters. Ranch homes in the community usually use a split-level floorplan, sitting alongside two-story homes with vaulted ceilings. Prices typically range between $320,000 and $510,000.
