Updated older homes in the shade
Tinley Park Gardens is comprised primarily of single-family homes in a mix of ranch styles, American Foursquares and Cape Cods. The houses in the neighborhood were built mainly in the 1950s and 1960s, and Cronin says many have since been renovated and updated. Homes are frequently three—and four-bedrooms and can range from around $200,000 up to $400,000 for a larger Cape Cod or Foursquare home. Homes offer decently sized front yards, with many large maple and walnut trees shading the driveways and large garages.
