Living in Tamms Farm

Tamms Farm is what “new construction” looks like after the builder leaves: a completed Lennar community, built between 2022 and 2025, where every home is still in its first years but nobody is waiting on a construction schedule. Lennar sold eleven floor plans here, from 1,455 to 3,146 square feet with three to four bedrooms, and many homes carry full basements — a feature that separates Tamms Farm from much of the corridor’s newer stock.

Because the community just finished, the resale market here is effectively a quick-move-in market: recent list prices have averaged in the $480Ks, with individual homes ranging roughly from the $430s to the low $500s depending on plan, basement finish, and lot. For buyers comparing against an on-order build at Prairie Ridge, the math is close and worth running both ways — Tamms Farm homes typically include the window treatments, appliances, landscaping, and fencing that base builder pricing excludes.

Ownership costs stay simple: the HOA has run about $38 a month, and the village’s Tamms Farm Special Service Area (No. 22) is currently listed as inactive. Average property taxes in the community have run around $6,600 — new-construction assessments phase in over the first years, so we pull the actual bill and its trajectory on any specific home. The location puts Bruce Ream Memorial Park, the Hampshire Forest Preserve, and downtown’s State Street a few minutes away.

Full basements

The differentiator

Many Tamms Farm plans include full basements — finished ones add real usable square footage at a price per foot the corridor’s new builds can’t match. Basement finish is the biggest value swing between otherwise similar homes here.

Move-in ready

Versus building new

Tamms Farm resales come with the extras builder base pricing excludes: blinds, appliances, landscaping, sometimes fencing. Against an on-order build, that package plus zero build wait is the pitch — we run the comparison for every client.
