Oakwood Hills is a small, established market with just three named communities: Oakwood Hills, Chalet Hills Estates, and Fawn Ridge. There's no active adult or new construction segment here — these are all resale-only neighborhoods built out long ago, and turnover is limited. Chalet Hills Estates stands out as the largest of the three by recent sales activity, with homes trading well into the high $800,000s, reflecting larger lots and custom-built houses typical of this pocket of McHenry County. Oakwood Hills itself, the community sharing the town's name, offers a wider spread of prices and is where most entry-level activity happens, while Fawn Ridge is smaller and sees only occasional turnover. Because inventory is thin across all three subdivisions, buyers need to move quickly when something does come on the market, and patience is often required for the right fit to appear. Overall, this city suits move-up and established buyers looking for larger single-family homes on generous acreage rather than starter properties or maintenance-free living, with pricing that spans from more modest older homes to upper-mid six-figure custom builds.
3 homes sold in the past year ranging from $580,000 to $900,000.
