Cozy homes next to stellar schools and parks
Nestled in the southeastern corner of the vibrant village of Orland Park, Fernway Park is a smaller neighborhood that offers residents a blend of suburban tranquility and convenient access to modern amenities. The area’s ranch-style homes are a quick walk from both excellent schools and a variety of parks. There is also abundant shopping and dining nearby, so residents never have to travel far. Whether looking for a peaceful retreat or a vibrant community to call home, Fernway Park has something for everyone. "There is a good shopping center nearby, and the neighborhood parks are all very nice,” says Cheri Cronin, a broker with Coldwell Banker Realty who has served the area for over 40 years.
1960s ranch-style homes
In the Fernway Park area, locals can primarily find three-to-four-bedroom ranch-style homes built in the 1960s with large driveways and attached garages. “The area is a little older, but the homes have been well maintained and updated over the years," says Cronin. Homes can range from $200,000 to 400,000 dollars, with prices rising the closer the house is to parks and schools. Many homes also have spacious front yards with mature oak trees shading the driveways and front doors. Newer parts of the neighborhood have sidewalks, allowing for an accessible place for a stroll.
Major numbered Illinois roads
Two of the major thoroughfares outside of Fernway Park are 159th Street and 96th Avenue. These allow access to the greater Chicago area and a fast track to downtown. Multiple bus stops are also available right along 159th Street for locals to utilize. Many residents also have access to sidewalks and greenways throughout the neighborhood, so cars are not the only possible form of travel. Silver Cross Hospital is 11 miles away to the west for medical care. For trips to the east and west coast, the Chicago Midway International Airport is a 19-mile drive north towards downtown Chicago.
Orland Towne Center
Neighbors don't have to go far to shop with Orland Towne Center just to the northwest. The shopping center has many retail and fast-food favorites such as Burger King and Taco Bell. Residents can shop for groceries at ALDI or Walmart in the shopping center or Jewel-Osco right across the street. For breakfast on the weekends, check out Lumes Pancake House across the street from the town center. Established in 1991, Lumes uses only the freshest ingredients with a modern farm-to-table feel and is famous for its oven-baked pancake dusted with powdered sugar.
Parks mere feet from the front door
A few blocks to the east of the local Elementary School, you'll find Wlodarski Park, which has a playground, plenty of green space to have a picnic on a sunny day and a great walking path. The path connects to Buedingen Park, which offers multiple sports fields and another popular playset for local athletes. On the neighborhood's north end, Crystal Creek Park has three different playgrounds, each designed for a specific age group; plus, there is a sand pit with two diggers for all ages.
Kirby School District 140
Younger students can look forward to walking to school with Fernway Park Elementary School located in the center of the neighborhood. The school receives a B rating on Niche and features a wide variety of clubs and activities designed to meet the needs and interests of students. Students then head to Prairie View Middle School, which receives an A-minus, then finish at the A-rated Victor J. Andrew High School. The school is especially proud of its baseball team under their mascot, the Thunderbolts.
Party in the Park
Just outside the neighborhood, Orland Park has an annual celebration popular with residents known as Party in the Park. This event takes place in June in Kelly Park and provides three days of fun, from the best fireworks show in the southwest suburbs to great local live cover bands, great food from local businesses and family-friendly activities.
