Orchard Brook, Downers Grove
A Downers Grove, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.
Located in northern Downers Grove along 39th Street, Orchard Brook is a planned subdivision established in the late 1960s and 1970s. The neighborhood features two-story colonial and split-level homes situated around an interconnected network of common greenbelts, paths, and retention ponds.
Homes in Orchard Brook
Orchard Brook consists of single-family homes built in the late 1960s and 1970s, dominated by two-story colonials, split-levels, and ranches. Houses feature attached two-car garages and sit on quarter- to half-acre lots along curving streets and cul-de-sacs.
Orchard Brook sits inside Downers Grove, so the Downers Grove market report is the right read on prices and pace; the figures beside this are the town's, not the neighborhood's.
