About Chestnut Corners

Chestnut Corners is one of Lake Zurich’s larger established single-family subdivisions, with roughly 270 homes developed primarily during the early-to-mid 1990s. The neighborhood is characterized largely by traditional two-story homes, mature landscaping, sidewalks and a cohesive residential streetscape created during a relatively concentrated construction period.

Historical neighborhood information places typical original home sizes generally around 2,100 to 3,000 square feet, although individual properties may be larger because of particular floor plans, additions or finished lower levels.

Homes in Chestnut Corners

Chestnut Corners was developed with multiple Lexington Homes floor plans, creating variety while maintaining a recognizable neighborhood character. Historical sources identify models such as Canterbury, Normandy, Norwood, Summit, Waterford and Wedgewood.

Many homes reflect the design priorities of the early 1990s: larger two-story layouts, formal living and dining spaces, attached garages and full basements. Individual homes have evolved considerably since construction, so updates, finished lower levels and remodeling can create meaningful differences between properties that began with similar floor plans.

Buying a Home in Chestnut Corners

Because Chestnut Corners is an established subdivision rather than a new-construction community, buyers may see significant differences in updates and condition from one home to another. Two houses based on similar original floor plans can present very differently after three decades of ownership, remodeling and maintenance.

Buyers should compare not only square footage and bedroom count, but also major mechanical updates, finished basement space, lot position, interior renovation and how the home compares with both recent sales and competing Lake Zurich neighborhoods.
