Living in Norton Lake

Norton Lake is the answer for buyers who want Campton Hills without a 1990s renovation project. The neighborhood sits in the village’s most convenient corner — west of Randall Road and south of Route 64, east of Fox Mill Boulevard off Carl Sandburg Road — and it’s the only place in the village where production new construction is actively underway. K. Hovnanian and Shodeen Homes have built here since 2016, and Shodeen’s current phases continue in 2026 with move-in-ready homes appearing periodically.

The plan centers on a roughly 10-acre spring-fed lake ringed by walking and biking trails, parks, and open space, with homesites of about a third to a half acre — generous by suburban standards, right-sized for buyers who want land without acreage upkeep. Shodeen’s current lineup runs about 2,400 to 3,000 square feet across seven floor plans including three true ranches, while earlier phases delivered homes up to about 4,700 square feet. Bell-Graham Elementary (CUSD 303) borders the neighborhood, and the association fee has run a modest $53–$85 a month per MLS-fed sources.

Recent sales have ranged from about $735,000 to $905,000 with a median around $845,000 per MLS-fed sources — new-construction pricing that still undercuts what a comparable new custom build costs on a private lot once land and site work are counted. For buyers weighing Norton Lake against resale Fox Mill, the math is a trade: newer everything and lake-and-trail surroundings here, versus more established landscaping and a lower entry price there. We run that comparison with clients weekly.
