A secluded, forested feel in Woodland

Part of the Village of Deerfield, Woodland feels like a forested escape from suburban living. Yards along the winding streets have trees reaching far into the sky, shading properties and creating a secluded, private atmosphere. “It’s a very family-friendly, walkable neighborhood with fantastic schools and lots of parks close by,” says Realtor Diane Markus with @properties. “It really encompasses a lot of what people are looking for when they move out of the city.” Still, the community is just a mile from downtown Deerfield, where residents can enjoy village events and restaurants.
