On Kenosha’s west end, just north of the Illinois-Wisconsin Border, residents are just a short drive from the amenities and atmosphere of downtown Kenosha.
From traditional homes to modern builds
The small neighborhood of Jamestown features a variety of cottages, Colonial Revivals and split-level homes.

Most houses sit close together on quarter-acre lots, with larger wooded properties being featured with Jamestown’s older homes on 45th street. The average home price here is $320,000, but small, 1,000-square-foot ranch-style homes can be listed for under $200,000. The high end of the market is home to four-bedroom modern traditional homes with around 2,500 square feet.
