"A suburban feel" with city-level amenities
With proximity to exciting entertainment, popular parks and bustling businesses, West Hoffman Estates could easily be a noisy, crowded place. However, this neighborhood in the village of Hoffman Estates doesn’t sacrifice solitude for access to amenities. “It’s got a suburban feel, even a rural feel,” says Hoffman Estates Director of Development Services Peter Gugliotta. “There’s quite a bit of open space around the neighborhood, including forest preserves and strong park facilities. Still, it’s very proximate to Interstate 90 and some large employers, as well as retail, restaurants and entertainment.”
Rows of homes are nestled near a water tower and corn fields giving you serene living.
Shopping and retail are never far from West Hoffman Estates with its open-air centers.

From birdwatching to baseball
West Hoffman Estates enjoys immediate access to Arthur L. Janura Preserve, an expansive collection of public conservation spaces. It includes Shoe Factory Road Nature Preserve, a 9-acre gravel hill prairie. “Very extensive pathways have been built out for hiking and biking, connecting to nearby residential areas and the rest of the village,” Gugliotta says. The preserve is also a sought-after location for bird watchers, home to Timberdoodles, ruby-throated hummingbirds, Eastern Screech Owls and more. The neighborhood also features a forested 18-hole disc golf course at Black Bear Park, whose pond is a prime spot for wintertime ice fishing. It’s within walking distance of many residents, as is Cannon Crossings, a neighborhood athletic complex. Locals can practice and compete at its baseball, soccer, tennis and volleyball facilities.

Big-ticket events and family-friendly nightlife
I-90 runs through the center of West Hoffman Estates, separating its homes from various commercial and entertainment options. NOW Arena, a 12,000-seat venue, is home to the Windy City Bulls, the Chicago Bulls’ NBA G League affiliate team. “It hosts a wide variety of events, between Cirque du Soleil, monster truck shows, pro wrestling, Olympics qualifiers and a good variety of concerts,” Gugliotta says. “It draws a lot of people from different crowds.” The nearby Main Event features interactive entertainment, including bowling, laser tag and a ropes course. It operates across the street from The Saddle Room, an American restaurant with a seasonal menu, a wine bar, and indoor and outdoor fireplaces. Residents are short distances from retail areas such as Poplar Prairie Stone Crossing, featuring Target and HomeGoods. Other nearby grocery options include Jewel-Osco, Aldi and Elgin Fresh Market.

New Traditional architecture abounds
Quiet, winding residential streets fill West Hoffman Estates south of I-90. New Traditional architecture is the most common sight, with many local homes built over the last 20 or 30 years.

Townhouses with attached garages are also available in the neighborhood, starting in the low $300,000s for two-bedroom builds. Homebuyers in the neighborhood will spend about $500,000 on average, which might buy a four-bedroom detached house with roughly 2,700 square feet.

The future of work in Hoffman Estates
West Hoffman Estates was once home to a massive Sears Holdings corporate campus. The facility shuttered a few years ago but has some exciting changes in its future. “It was purchased by a company that’s planning to redevelop the entire campus with data center buildings,” Gugliotta says. “I feel like it’s a good use for the site — it’s important to repurpose campuses like this into something more modern and viable in the future.” Residents can quickly take I-90 to other workplaces throughout the village. The interstate also offers a direct 36-mile drive to downtown Chicago.
