Moose Lake Estates is North Aurora’s semi-custom address — Gladstone-built brick-and-stone two-stories across 130+ acres south of Mooseheart Road, still adding new homes, with listings averaging in the mid-$600s.
Moose Lake Estates occupies the northwest quadrant of North Aurora — south of Mooseheart Road between Randall Road and Route 31 (Lake Street) — and it’s where the village’s semi-custom market lives. Gladstone Builders opened the community in 2004, paused through the downturn years around 2008–2010 like most of the Fox Valley, and has been building steadily since, with new construction still delivering. The community spreads across more than 130 acres with a park near its center, and the entrance off Moose Lake Drive sets the tone: brick, stone, and mixed-media exteriors rather than repeated vinyl elevations.
The product is two-story semi-custom, mostly 1,900 to 4,100 square feet, across a large model portfolio — Gladstone’s “stone” series names like the Elmstone, Riverstone, Greystone, Brookstone, and Hearthstone recur throughout the community. Four-bedroom layouts with 2.5 or 3.5 baths dominate, and full, partial, or English basements are the norm. Because buyers selected finishes and options at build time, no two streets read identically — which is precisely the appeal for buyers stepping up from production-built subdivisions.
Listings here average in the mid-$600s per MLS-fed data, with the HOA at a modest $33–$42 a month. The location works hard: Randall Road’s retail corridor borders the community’s west side, the I-88 interchange at Route 31 is minutes south, and Mooseheart Road connects east to Route 31 in one move. MLS-fed sources place the community in West Aurora District 129 — with Goodwin Elementary, Jewel Middle, and West Aurora High School cited — and as always with boundary questions, confirm the current assignment for any specific address with the district.
