Living in Grasmere

Grasmere is where I start most Mokena buyers who want an established single-family neighborhood without an estate-level budget. The community spreads across the village’s central-west side—west of LaGrange Road (US-45), north of LaPorte Road—and at roughly 585 properties it is the largest subdivision in Mokena by a wide margin. The build-out ran from the early 1990s through the early 2000s, which means mature trees, settled streets, and a housing stock that has been through several market cycles and held its value through all of them.

The homes are mostly two-story singles and ranches in the 1,800 to 4,200 square foot range, on lots around a quarter acre, with the kind of floor plans that still work for how people live—which is a big reason Grasmere leads the town in annual sales volume year after year. There is also an attached section, Grasmere Meadows on Manchester Drive, where units trade right around the $300K mark and give buyers the least expensive path into the neighborhood. Grasmere Park, a Mokena Community Park District property, sits inside the community.

On pricing: recent detached sales have run from the mid $400s to about $655,000 depending on size and updates, with actives in late summer 2026 spanning roughly $310,000 for attached units to $599,900 for larger singles. Detached homes carry little or no association fee, while the attached Grasmere Meadows units have reported fees in the $340–$355 per month range covering exterior maintenance—the reported figures vary by source, so we confirm the exact fee on any specific home before you offer. Grasmere sits in Mokena School District 159, and the Front Street Metra station is a short drive east.

The premium tier

Larger models—four-plus bedrooms approaching 4,000 square feet, three-car garages, cul-de-sac and backing-to-open-space lots—push into the $500s and low $600s. These are Grasmere’s move-up homes, and they compete directly with newer stock in Boulder Ridge at a friendlier price point.
