River’s Edge lines the south bank of the Fox River about a mile west of downtown Yorkville — roughly 170 single-family homes off Fox Road, built from 2002 through the mid-2010s.
River’s Edge occupies the strip between Fox Road and the Fox River on Yorkville’s near-west side, about a mile west of the Route 47 (Bridge Street) bridge downtown. McCue Builders developed the original sections beginning in 2002, building through about 2011 along Kelly Avenue, Poplar Drive, Redhorse Lane, Stony Creek Lane, Flint Creek Lane and Tyler Creek Court. A later phase, the Reserve at River’s Edge off Windham Circle, filled in during the mid-2010s — MLS-fed sources credit Cardinal Homes with that work. Kendall County parcel records show about 170 homesites in all.
The setting is the draw here: the neighborhood’s north edge runs along the Fox River corridor, and MLS-fed data tags water rights and waterfront features on a number of homesites, particularly along Redhorse Lane. Rice Park and its playground sit adjacent to the neighborhood, creek greenways thread between streets, and Hoover Forest Preserve and Silver Springs State Park are a short drive further west on Fox Road. Downtown Yorkville’s riverfront — Bicentennial Riverfront Park, the Marge Cline Whitewater Course and the Bridge Street restaurant row — is about five minutes east.
River’s Edge trades in Yorkville’s mid-to-upper bracket. Closings in 2026 have run from $442K to $605K with a median around $544K, and mid-2026 actives were listed at $487K and $575K. Turnover is steady but not heavy — roughly three to nine sales a year — and a handful of vacant lots still change hands in the $58K–$60K range, which is unusual for a subdivision this established. Buyers here are typically trading up for square footage and the river-corridor setting while staying close to downtown.
Pricing reflects River’s Edge sales and active listings as of mid-2026.

See listings →The newer phase off Windham Circle north of Fox Road — recent sales include $528,500 and $559,900. Newer mechanicals and finishes than the original sections, and it suits buyers who want the river-corridor location with a later build date.

The neighborhood’s north edge follows the river’s south bank, and MLS-fed data shows waterfront and water-rights tags on a number of homesites, especially along Redhorse Lane. Frontage varies lot to lot — we verify it on any specific home.
Rice Park’s playground and shelter sit adjacent to the neighborhood, and Fox Road continues west to Hoover Forest Preserve and Silver Springs State Park within a few minutes’ drive.
Bicentennial Riverfront Park, the Marge Cline Whitewater Course and Bridge Street’s shops and restaurants are about a mile east — close enough for a quick trip, far enough to keep the neighborhood quiet.
A handful of vacant homesites remain and have listed recently around $58K–$60K — a rare chance to build in an established, 20-year-old Yorkville subdivision, subject to city and HOA requirements.
