Living in Surrey Ridge

Surrey Ridge is Sleepy Hollow’s widest-spectrum neighborhood—the only place in the village where a $155K condo and a $570K single-family home share the same streets. Built primarily by Windsor from 1979 into the early 1990s, west of 8th Street off Route 72, the neighborhood runs along Surrey Lane, Acorn Drive, Locust Drive, and Glen Oak Drive. The single-family side offered plans including the Adams, Ashley, Cambridge, Heritage, Homestead, Queen Anne, and Quincy—mostly 2,300–2,900 square feet, with resales now spanning roughly 2,300 to 4,500 square feet on lots averaging about 0.7 acre.

The attached section is what makes Surrey Ridge singular: the village’s only townhomes and condominiums, units around 1,100 square feet that have recently traded between roughly $155K and $200K with monthly assessments generally in the $230–$330 range. Single-family homes carry no association fee. Recent single-family sales have run from about $345K to $570K, and average property taxes land near $7,700—modest for the village. Turnover across both sections is thin: a handful of sales a year combined.

The neighborhood’s position puts the Dundee Township Park District’s Sleepy Hollow Center—tennis, basketball, sand volleyball, playground, preschool—essentially next door on Winmoor Drive, with Sabatino Park’s festival grounds close behind. For buyers, Surrey Ridge is the village’s pragmatic answer: the same wooded, no-commercial-district setting as everywhere else in Sleepy Hollow, at the widest range of entry prices.

What Living Here Comes With

🎾

Sleepy Hollow Center next door

The DTPD facility on Winmoor Drive — tennis, basketball, sand volleyball, playground, and preschool — sits at the neighborhood’s edge, the closest recreation access of any village neighborhood.

🏡

Two products, one setting

Attached units and 0.7-acre single-family lots share the same wooded streetscape — the neighborhood reads as village, not complex, which keeps attached-unit demand strong.

🌳

Wooded 0.7-acre lots

Single-family lots average about 0.73 acre with the village’s signature mature tree cover — privacy that newer corridor subdivisions can’t match at these prices.

🛍️

Route 72 access

The neighborhood sits off Route 72, minutes from both the Randall Road corridor and downtown West Dundee — errands and dining split the difference between the two.
