Ivanhoe is east Bolingbrook’s workhorse single-family neighborhood — 1970s-built streets south of Boughton Road with no association dues, homes from about 1,200 to 3,400 square feet, and 2025–26 sales mostly between $325K and $435K.
Ivanhoe covers the streets east of Bolingbrook Drive and south of Boughton Road — classic east-side Bolingbrook, built mainly in the 1970s with infill continuing into the 2000s. It is a pure single-family neighborhood: around fifteen floor plans ranging from compact 1,220-square-foot homes to 3,400-square-foot two-stories, on quarter-acre-class lots under a mature tree canopy, with no homeowners association anywhere in it.
The market profile is the village’s center lane. The average home runs about 2,050 square feet with an average build year of 1975, and recent trading has been steady: the 2025 median landed around $397K, with 2025–26 sales mostly falling between $325,000 and $435,000 and current listings running from the mid-$200Ks for project homes to $549K at the renovated top. Taxes average in the $5,700–$8,500 range depending on size and updates — and with no dues, the monthly math stays simple.
Who buys here: first-time buyers stepping up from attached housing, value-driven relocators from DuPage, and investors who like the rent profile on three-bed singles. Condition drives the spread more than anything — original-condition homes anchor the bottom of each band while flips and owner renovations push the top — so knowing what work was done, and how well, is most of the underwriting on any Ivanhoe purchase.
Pricing reflects Ivanhoe sales and active listings as of late summer 2026.
The value hunters’ tier — solid 1970s bones with first-generation finishes. Priced right, these are the cheapest detached path into the east side, and the renovation math usually works.
