Grande Reserve anchors Yorkville’s northeast side along Route 34 and Kennedy Road — a master-planned community with a 9-acre resident aquatic center, an on-site K-6 elementary school and new construction still underway in 2026.
Grande Reserve is Yorkville’s biggest master-planned community and the center of gravity for new construction in town — Shaw Local’s 2025 review of city permit data called it the subdivision with the most new construction in Yorkville. The community spreads across the city’s northeast side, north of Route 34 (Veterans Parkway) along Kennedy Road, Mill Road and Bristol Ridge Road, and is organized into dozens of platted units and neighborhoods. The first wave of homes went up starting around 2005 under the original development plan; construction slowed after the late-2000s downturn, then restarted around 2019 with Ryan Homes and later D.R. Horton, with Gladstone Builders also delivering homes in some sections. Building continues in 2026 — 80 new permits were issued here in 2024, and a 154-lot final plat (Units 10B and 11B, east of Kennedy Road) was scheduled for Yorkville City Council review in June 2026.
Amenities are the community’s calling card. The resident-only Grande Reserve Aquatic Center covers about nine acres and includes a zero-depth-entry pool, a spray play area, a lap pool and a lounging pool, plus pool volleyball, alongside a roughly 4,200-square-foot clubhouse. Grande Reserve Elementary School (CUSD 115, grades K-6) sits inside the community at 3142 Grande Trail — the newest townhome sections are a short walk away — and the city’s Grande Reserve Park A and Park B, miles of bike and walking paths, ponds and open space fill out the plan. A master homeowners association managed by Foster Premier maintains common areas across the community.
For buyers, Grande Reserve offers the widest spread of price points and home ages on Yorkville’s north and east side. New D.R. Horton townhomes start around $310,000 and top out in the mid-$370s, while resale and newer single-family homes generally run from the mid-$360s to about $600,000. The community turns over steadily — roughly 50 sales closed in the first half of 2026 with a median around $357,500 across all product types — so buyers can usually choose between building new and buying a near-new resale. One line item to check: many central sections carry a special service area (SSA) tax on top of the regular tax bill, up to about $2,826 per single-family home in 2026, which runs through the early 2030s and can be prepaid.
Pricing reflects Grande Reserve sales and active listings as of mid-2026.
D.R. Horton is actively building two-story townhomes off Kennedy Road and Mill Road — four floor plans (Norfolk, Fairfax, Tallmadge, Portsmouth) from 1,543 to 1,845 square feet with 2-4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and 2-car garages, priced from about $309,990 to $372,990 in mid-2026. These are the community’s entry point and sit closest to the on-site elementary school.

The community’s roughly nine-acre, resident-only aquatic campus at 2855 Grande Trail includes a zero-depth-entry pool, spray play area, lap pool and lounging pool, plus pool volleyball, next to a clubhouse of about 4,200 square feet. It is the largest private pool complex in any Yorkville subdivision guide we publish.
Grande Reserve Elementary School (CUSD 115, grades K-6) sits at 3142 Grande Trail in the middle of the neighborhood. The newest townhome sections are about a tenth of a mile from its door, and much of the community can reach it on internal sidewalks and paths.
Miles of bike and walking paths thread through the community and connect to the city’s Grande Reserve Park A and Park B, neighborhood ponds and open space. The master plan reserves green corridors between the platted neighborhoods rather than building lot-to-lot.
D.R. Horton and Ryan Homes were both selling here in mid-2026, and a 154-lot final plat east of Kennedy Road was moving through city approval in June 2026. Buyers can compare new builds against near-new resales inside the same community — a choice few Yorkville subdivisions still offer.
Grande Reserve is served by Yorkville Community Unit School District 115. Verify current attendance boundaries with the district, as they can change.

Grande Reserve fronts the Route 34 retail corridor, so groceries, restaurants and everyday errands sit at the community’s edge, with more along Route 47 including Raging Waves waterpark a few minutes north. Downtown Yorkville, the riverfront and Bicentennial Riverfront Park with the Marge Cline Whitewater Course are about ten minutes southwest.
Route 34 runs east to Oswego in about ten minutes and on to Montgomery and Aurora, while Kennedy Road and Route 47 connect north to I-88 in roughly 15 minutes for east-west tollway access. Orchard Road puts Aurora’s west-side employers about 20 minutes out, and the Naperville corridor is generally 30-40 minutes.
Downtown Chicago is roughly 55 miles east. Drivers take I-88 via Route 47 or Orchard Road; train commuters catch the Metra BNSF line at the Aurora Transportation Center, about a 25-minute drive, or drive to Route 59 for express service. Plan on 60-90 minutes door to door depending on mode and time of day.
