Del Webb, a national builder of active-adult communities for those 55 and older, announced its first new community in the Greater Chicago area in over 15 years: Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb.
This community will introduce new low-maintenance ranch homes from Del Webb’s GenYou collection. Nestled in Aurora, Illinois’ second largest city, Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb will be just 10 minutes from a variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment destinations along Routes 59 and 34.
“We are thrilled to offer the signature home designs, amenities, and lifestyle that Del Webb is known for at a brand-new community,” says John Hudson, Illinois division vice president of sales for PulteGroup, the parent company of Del Webb. “There is already a lot of excitement and interest, especially among local 55-plus buyers who are looking to experience the next stage of life at an active-adult community, without having to move away from family in the Chicagoland area.”
At its grand opening this fall, Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb will debut six model homes available to tour. Del Webb’s GenYou collection of home designs were created after extensive research and consumer feedback to reflect the evolving needs and expectations of active-adult living. Floor plans will include large kitchen islands, tall sliding glass doors to maximize natural light and flow easily between indoor and outdoor living, spacious owner’s suites with spa-like baths, and ample storage space.
The community will also feature a 16,000-square-foot clubhouse with amenities including both indoor and outdoor pools; courts for tennis, bocce, and pickleball; a fitness center; billiards room; and social rooms. A full-time lifestyle director will be on site to develop and manage a robust calendar of activities and events to help residents live their lives to the fullest.
