Flossmoor
South Suburban prestige. Country club living.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD STORY

Flossmoor is the southern suburbs' clearest expression of classic American country club living. The village was developed in the early 20th century as a planned golf and residential community, and that original vision remains strikingly intact. The Flossmoor Country Club anchors the community's social identity. The tree-lined streets, Victorian-influenced architecture, and genuine small-town downtown give Flossmoor a character that is increasingly rare — a community that knows exactly what it is and has maintained that identity across a century of change around it.

WHY RESIDENTS LOVE IT

•   Flossmoor Country Club —a historic club with golf, tennis, swimming, and dining that anchors thecommunity's social life.

•   Metra Electric Line —direct service to Chicago's Millennium Station in approximately 45 minutes.

•   Architecturallydistinctive housing — the village's Victorian and craftsman homes have genuinecharacter and presence.

•   Exceptional communitystability — Flossmoor's identity has remained consistent for over a century.

HOMES & ARCHITECTURE

Flossmoor's housing reflects its planned resort-community origins. Victorian, craftsman, and colonial revival homes dominate the historic neighborhoods near the country club and downtown, featuring large front porches, mature landscaping, and architectural details that are increasingly difficult to find. Mid-century colonials and ranches fill the neighborhoods developed after WWII, offering solid construction and good bones. The overall quality of Flossmoor's housing stock is unusually high for the south suburban market.
