A Northern Chicago neighborhood full of adventure
Looking at the Busse Woods neighborhood on a map, there’s a lot of green space. That's because the Ned Brown Forest Preserve, also known as Busse Woods, is roughly three-quarters of the neighborhood. Everything south of State Route 58 is open space for outdoor recreation. Above the wilderness, the neighborhood is also a bustling area filled with shopping centers, business parks, restaurants and residential properties. The Endeavor Health Northwest Community Hospital provides healthcare to the area, while the Arlington Lakes Golf Club adds more adventure. Residents of Busse Woods can live a comfortable city lifestyle while still having unlimited access to outdoor amenities.
One of the biggest draws of the neighborhood is Ned Brown Preserve, often known as Busse Woods.

Premier preserve filled with outdoor recreation
One of the biggest draws of Busse Woods is the natural preserve that carries the same name. The 3,558-acre Ned Brown Forest Preserve has a seemingly endless forest with ponds, lakes and a protected elk pasture for the wildlife to roam. Visitors can explore the preserve along 13 miles of paved trails that wind throughout the territory. Go hiking or biking through the natural scenery, or dive into the water recreation and go boating, fishing or kayaking. The Busse Lake Boating Center offers rentals for water transports, such as canoes and motorized boats, for those who don’t have their own. In the wintertime, visitors can even go cross-country skiing, ice skating and snowmobiling throughout the area. Large meadows and groves are perfect for picnicking with friends and family. In addition to the Busse Woods preserve, residents of the neighborhood can play a round of golf at the Arlington Lakes Golf Club. All ages and levels of skill are open to the 18-hole course. “We have good ties with the community, so we really try to provide excellent services for the residents nearby,” says Bryan Cox, general manager of Arlington Lakes Golf Club. “One of the interesting things that we offer are three-hole and six-hole rates, so if people want to come out during lunchtime or do not want to come out for long, we have options.” The club also offers leagues, lessons and tournaments throughout the year.

A wide range of housing options
Despite the neighborhood’s small residential area, there is a large variety of housing types in Busse Woods. The majority of the detached, single-family homes are modest ranchers and split levels that range from 1,000 to 2,000 square feet and cost between $330,000 and $450,000. There are also a handful of traditional multilevel homes that come with a garage and can get up to $600,000. These properties all have maintained lawns and vary in age. Those who want something a bit smaller can invest in one of the many condominiums or townhouses in the area. There are both old and new construction properties to choose from – newer townhouses with balconies, and luxurious brick condos with Colonial architecture. Residents can live in a one-bed condo with 1,000 square feet for around $155,000 or a 3-bed one with 1,8000 square feet for $270,000.

Shopping and dining between the highways
For a neighborhood that has more greenspace than developed land, Busse Woods still hits the mark with providing everyday necessities for its residents. "There's not a traditional downtown area here, but there are a lot of strip malls for shopping," says Kostas Giannikoulis, a local realtor with @properties Christie’s International Real Estate, who has over 20 years of experience. At the junction between Golf Road and West Algonquin Road, there is a large commercial space with shopping centers that have retailers like Walmart and Meijer. The area also has several fast-food and restaurant chains to choose from, like Raising Cane’s and Panera Bread. Those who want to go local can eat at the family-owned Taqueria Los Laureles with its authentic Mexican cuisine. There’s also Chef Ping, serving modern Chinese and Asian dishes. Between West Algonquin Road and Interstate 90, there are several business parks with commercial businesses, hotels and private medical practices. For more options, residents can head less than a mile east of the Busse Woods preserve to Woodfield Mall, where there are name-brand stores, department stores, restaurants and numerous entertainment options.
