Lake Run Estates is North Aurora’s established luxury address — Toll Brothers two-stories from roughly 2,800 to 5,900 square feet near Orchard Road, with recent sales from the $630s past $800K.
Lake Run Estates sits at North Aurora’s far west edge — south of Tanner Road and west of Orchard Road in Blackberry Township — and it is the village’s definitive Toll Brothers community. Construction ran from about 2005 through 2012, and the product is exactly what that builder’s name suggests: substantial two-stories with three-quarter and full brick fronts, side-load garages, and elevations that read estate rather than subdivision. Home sizes run from roughly 2,800 to nearly 5,900 square feet, with models including the Braemore, Carmel, Columbia, and Duke.
Inside, the homes deliver the late-2000s luxury package at scale — two-story family rooms, floor-to-ceiling fireplaces, dual staircases in some plans, and primary suites sized for furniture that wouldn’t fit in a production build. Because Toll Brothers sold these as semi-custom, option levels vary meaningfully home to home, which is why two similar-looking listings can appraise differently. Recent sales run from $632,000 to $813,032 with a community median around $680,000, and the current top listing asks $899,900.
Carrying costs are worth understanding before you fall for one: the HOA is trivial — roughly $340 to $400 a year — but property taxes on homes this size average around $12,500 annually, so the tax line, not the fee line, is what belongs in your payment math. Per current District 129 boundaries the community feeds Fearn Elementary, Herget Middle, and West Aurora High School (verify per address). Orchard Road’s I-88 ramp is effectively the neighborhood’s driveway, which makes this one of the best large-home commuter positions in the Fox Valley.

The community’s volume band — 2,800–3,600 square foot plans like the Columbia and Duke with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Recent closings at $632,000–$680,000 put these below comparable Toll product in DuPage by a wide margin.

Three-quarter and full brick fronts, side-load garages, and deep setbacks give the community a consistency of scale that newer mixed-product subdivisions can’t match.
