Churchill Club is on the east side of Oswego, near Douglas Road and Wolf’s Crossing. The neighborhood was built starting in 2004. It has single-family homes, townhomes, and a 55+ section called Steeplechase, all built around a big clubhouse and pool. What really sets it apart from other Oswego subdivisions is the schools. Churchill Elementary, Plank Junior High, and the Brokaw Early Learning Center are all inside the neighborhood. If you are looking at homes for sale in Churchill Club, Oswego IL, here is what you should know.
Where Kids Walk to School
For a lot of families, this is the main reason they buy here. Churchill Club is in Oswego Community Unit School District 308, and the elementary school, junior high, and early learning center are all inside the community. Kids walk or bike to school on the neighborhood paths. There is no drop-off line in the morning. High school students go to Oswego East High School, which is a short drive away. Most newer subdivisions cannot offer that. When a home comes up for sale on a street close to the schools, people notice.
