Lakewood Valley packs 736 homes, a clubhouse, an outdoor pool, tennis, and five ponds onto 194 acres along Wolf’s Crossing Road in far-southeast Aurora — amenity-rich District 308-corridor living at a mid-market price.
Lakewood Valley is the amenity play in far-southeast Aurora: 736 homes on 194 acres along Wolf’s Crossing Road west of Route 59, organized under a master association with four sub-associations, five ponds, and a genuine amenity campus — clubhouse at 2529 Dickens Drive, outdoor pool, tennis and sand volleyball courts, two park sites, and walking paths. Homes by Marco credits Lakewood Homes as builder, with buildout spanning roughly 1997 through 2004 depending on section.
The mix runs single-family homes from about 1,900 to 4,430 square feet with three to six bedrooms, plus townhome and condo sections around 1,100-1,400 square feet. Recent closings tell the story: singles mostly $400K-$560K with a median around $410K, attached homes roughly $250K-$290K. Master association dues for singles are low, while the townhome and condo sub-associations run about $220-$340 monthly with exterior maintenance included — always compare the fee to the coverage rather than the sticker.
The community sits in Will County’s Wheatland Township and feeds the District 308 corridor — Wolfs Crossing Elementary, Bednarcik Junior High, and Oswego East High School under current boundaries. One naming note: Lakewood Valley is distinct from the separate Lakewood subdivision in Aurora and Lakewood Springs in Plano; portals blur them, comps should not.
Pricing reflects Lakewood Valley sales and active listings as of mid-2026.
From about 1,900 to 4,430 square feet, three to six beds, built 1997-2004. The recent median ran near $410K — strong value for a full amenity package in the D308 corridor.
