Prestwick Neighborhood Guide: Frankfort, IL

Prestwick is one of Frankfort’s most distinctive neighborhoods — and one of my favorites for buyers who want character. Built around a golf course with homes unlike most of the area, it offers something genuinely different. Here’s my local take.

Golf Course Living with Real Character

Prestwick is part of the Prestwick Country Club golf course, and the neighborhood maintains very unique homes you won’t find elsewhere in the area. If you appreciate individuality over cookie-cutter construction, this is your kind of place.

An Underrated Value

Prestwick may have seen a dip in popularity over the years, but that’s exactly what makes it interesting: if you like affordable character, you’ll like Prestwick. It’s a chance to get a distinctive home, often at a more attainable price than Frankfort’s newest luxury builds.

The Frankfort Lifestyle

Like the rest of Frankfort, Prestwick puts you close to a beautiful, busy historic downtown with great restaurants, bars, and a weekend farmers market — plus the strong schools and community feel the town is known for.

Location & Commute

Prestwick offers a prestigious yet convenient location in Frankfort, with Route 30, Route 45, and I-80 all within easy reach. Metra’s SouthWest Service from nearby stations provides a roughly 50-minute ride into downtown Chicago, and Frankfort’s historic downtown is just minutes from your front door.

Schools

Prestwick families are served by sought-after Frankfort schools, with students attending the highly rated Lincoln-Way Community High School District 210 for high school. The combination of top schools and an exclusive setting makes Prestwick one of Frankfort’s most desirable communities.

Life Around Prestwick

Built around the private Prestwick Country Club and its championship golf course, this is one of Frankfort’s signature luxury neighborhoods. Residents enjoy golf, social events, and a country-club lifestyle, all just a short drive from historic downtown Frankfort, the Old Plank Road Trail, and local shopping and dining.
