About the community
A settled late-1980s attached-home community in southwest Tinley Park.
Cambridge Place is an established attached-home community on the southwest side of Tinley Park, in Cook County, with homes dating to the late 1980s. It is sold as townhomes and condominiums rather than detached houses, on streets centered on Windsor Parkway, Drummond Drive, and Cambridge Place itself, east of LaGrange Road and south of 175th Street. A homeowners association maintains the exteriors and common areas, which makes it a natural fit for commuters, first-time buyers, and right-sizers who want a turnkey home. The setting is one of the reasons buyers choose it: minutes from the dense LaGrange Road retail corridor, two Metra stations, and the historic Oak Park Avenue downtown.

What it’s actually like to live here
Cambridge Place fits a buyer who wants Tinley Park's location without the upkeep of a detached house. The homes are roomy for attached living, and the association handles the exterior chores that eat weekends: lawn care, common-area landscaping, and snow removal. That makes it a natural fit for commuters, busy professionals, first-time buyers stepping up from renting, and empty-nesters trading down from a larger yard. The late-1980s vintage means mature trees and established streets, and it also means buyers should expect to update kitchens, baths, and mechanicals in many units and should read the association's reserve study to understand how big-ticket common repairs are funded.
Day to day, the draw is convenience. The LaGrange Road corridor covers nearly every errand within minutes, I-80 is close for regional driving, and two Metra stations put a ride to downtown Chicago within reach, a real advantage for anyone commuting or heading into the city for events. Tinley Park's Oak Park Avenue downtown adds a walkable, small-town layer of restaurants and seasonal festivals that many purely arterial suburbs lack, and the Cook County forest preserves nearby give quick access to trails and open space.
The honest tradeoffs: property taxes in this part of Cook County run high relative to the national average, and that carrying cost should be modeled alongside the monthly assessment before making an offer. As with any attached community, you are buying into shared governance and a shared budget, so the health of the association (reserves, any special assessments, rental and pet rules) matters as much as the individual unit, and those items should be verified through the disclosure packet.
The questions buyers actually ask
Cambridge Place FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Cambridge Place. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- How much is the HOA?
- townhomes and condos are $400 per month.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- Cambridge Place is a managed townhome and condominium association with monthly assessments (reported in the low-400s per month on recent listings). Assessments for a community of this vintage commonly fund exterior and common-area maintenance, landscaping, snow removal, master insurance, and reserves, but the exact inclusions must be confirmed from the association's declaration and current budget for the specific unit.
- What are property taxes like?
- Roughly $6,000 – $9,000 per year, depending on home size and value. Cook County assessor records are the source of truth. Happy to pull a specific bill on any home you're considering.
- What's the typical closing timeline?
- 30 to 60 days from accepted offer to keys. Cash deals can close in two weeks. Conventional financing is usually closer to 60.
- Is Cambridge Place townhomes or single-family homes?
- It is an attached-home community, sold as townhomes and condominiums, built in the late 1980s. Any single-family or detached listing would be the exception, so confirm the ownership type on the specific listing.
- When were the homes built?
- In the late 1980s, roughly 1986 to 1988. Expect mature landscaping and homes that may benefit from interior and mechanical updates.
- Is there an HOA and what does it cost?
- Yes. Monthly assessments have recently run in the low-400s. What the fee covers (exterior maintenance, landscaping, snow, insurance, and reserves, and possibly water) should be confirmed from the association's declaration and current budget before you buy.
- What schools would my child attend?
- Most likely Kirby School District 140 (Christa McAuliffe Elementary and Prairie View Middle School) for elementary and middle grades, and Consolidated High School District 230 (Victor J. Andrew High School) for high school. Tinley Park attendance boundaries interlace with neighboring districts, so confirm the assigned schools for your exact address.
- How is the commute to Chicago?
- Strong. Tinley Park has two Metra Rock Island District stations, Oak Park Avenue and 80th Avenue, with service to LaSalle Street Station, plus quick I-80 and LaGrange Road access for drivers.
- What are property taxes and current prices like?
- South Cook County tax rates are high by national standards, with an effective rate in the high-2 percent range of market value. For current prices, days on market, and inventory, see the live Market snapshot on this page rather than a fixed number.

Your local agent
Joe knows Cambridge Place
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
