Active adult community developer Del Webb will begin building a new community near Chicago, its first new development in the greater Chicago area in over 15 years.

Grand opening in the fall, Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb  will introduce into the market new low-maintenance ranch homes from Del Webb’s GenYou collection and resort-style amenities in a prime location. Nestled in Aurora, Illinois’ second largest city, just 10 minutes from a variety of shopping, dining and entertainment destinations along Routes 59 and 34, Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb will be a destination community for 55+ consumers.

Said 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+ 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, Lincoln Prairie by Del Webb will debut six model homes available to tour. The community will also feature a 16,000 sq. ft. 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.
