Living in Carillon at Cambridge Lakes

Carillon at Cambridge Lakes is the age-qualified side of Pingree Grove’s master plan — a 943-home 55+ community built by Cambridge Homes and D.R. Horton from roughly 2006 to 2020, south of Oak Knoll Drive off Brier Hill Road. Everything here is designed around single-level living: ranch single-family homes, duplexes, and townhomes, most with two bedrooms plus a den and attached two-car garages.

The lifestyle package is what sets Carillon apart at its price point. The clubhouse carries a fitness center, aerobics studio, indoor and outdoor pools, a whirlpool spa, ballroom, billiards, library, and craft rooms, and the grounds add tennis and bocce courts, walking trails, and a private 3-hole golf course. HOA fees — roughly $150 to $425 a month depending on product type — cover the amenities, with lawn care, snow removal, and exterior maintenance included on the attached homes.

Resales generally run from the high $200s for Bayside Series townhomes into the $300s for the Composer duplexes and Resort and Freedom Series singles, with the largest homes reaching toward $450K. Inventory is thin — often just a handful of active listings — and the single-level format keeps demand steady from downsizers across the northwest suburbs. If Carillon is on your list, an early-alert search matters more here than almost anywhere else we work.
