Andaré at Talamore

Independent Assessment

Lennar's own official community page markets Andaré at Talamore as exclusively for homebuyers 55 and better, giving the age-restriction finding stronger-than-average, builder-direct support. Home-count reporting is inconsistent across sources: one secondary source reports 78 single-family homes, while another secondary source cites 102 -- neither figure could be traced to a definitive builder statement of the final planned total. Both figures are reported here with that caveat rather than presented as settled. Andaré at Talamore is distinct from Sun City Huntley: the two are unrelated, differently sized, and differently built (Lennar/Andaré vs. PulteGroup/Del Webb), and only Andaré at Talamore is covered.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers who want a smaller, more intimate 55+ enclave within a large, amenity-rich masterplan -- rather than a freestanding age-restricted development -- may find Andaré at Talamore appealing, since residents can draw on Talamore's broader recreational infrastructure (parks, sports venues) in addition to the age-restricted section's own clubhouse and pool.

Homes, Builders & Development History

Lennar built Andaré at Talamore under its Andaré active-adult sub-brand within the larger Talamore masterplan in Huntley. The community offers six distinct floor plans ranging from roughly 1,343 to 1,880 square feet, with two to three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and attached two-car garages. One secondary source places the Andaré section's home count at 78 single-family homes, while another cites 102 -- both are reported here as unconfirmed.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

No current, publicly confirmed base-pricing range specific to Andaré at Talamore was found. Buyers should request current available floor plans, lot premiums, and base pricing directly from the Lennar sales office.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

Current Lennar listings (homes under construction with specific address-level pricing) indicate Andaré at Talamore is actively selling new construction as of the last update. Buyers should expect standard new-home builder considerations -- construction timelines, design-center upgrades, and Lennar's warranty program -- and should confirm current phase and availability directly with the sales office.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Andaré at Talamore are subject to McHenry County and Huntley property tax administration. A current effective property tax rate for the specific parcels was not independently confirmed; buyers should confirm exact current figures with the McHenry County Assessor's office.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Andaré at Talamore's single-story homes are low-maintenance, with yard work and snow removal included, and residents have access to a clubhouse, fitness center, and outdoor pool as part of the age-restricted section. The broader Talamore masterplan adds an outdoor pavilion with a fireplace and picnic tables, tennis and basketball courts, and a fishing pond with its own pier -- giving residents a mix of dedicated 55+ amenities and shared masterplan-wide recreation.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Andaré at Talamore sits in Huntley, McHenry County, reported by secondary sources as roughly an hour from downtown Chicago -- suiting buyers who want a suburban, exurban setting with metro access rather than a close-in commute. A specific drive time could not be independently verified.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Lennar's own official community page markets Andaré at Talamore as exclusively for homebuyers 55 and better. The recorded declaration of covenants for the Huntley parcel was not independently reviewed, so the precise occupancy rule and any exceptions were not confirmed firsthand. Buyers should confirm current age-verification requirements directly with the Lennar sales office, and should independently verify that any given address within the larger Talamore masterplan actually falls within the age-restricted Andaré section rather than the surrounding, non-age-restricted community.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

The conflicting 78-vs-102 home-count figures for Andaré at Talamore could not be resolved, and a current, Andaré-specific HOA fee and base pricing were not confirmed; all should be confirmed directly with the Lennar sales office. Because Andaré sits within the much larger Talamore masterplan, buyers should also clarify which amenities are exclusive to the age-restricted section versus shared with the broader, non-age-restricted Talamore community, and should take care not to confuse this community with the unrelated Sun City Huntley when researching online.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Andaré at Talamore is one of several Lennar Andaré-branded 55+ communities in the Lake/McHenry corridor, alongside Andaré at Glenloch (Algonquin), Andaré at Woodlore Estates (Crystal Lake), and Andaré at Remington Pointe North (Volo). Within Huntley itself, it is entirely distinct from and unrelated to Sun City Huntley, one of the largest Del Webb communities in the country -- buyers researching 'Huntley 55+ communities' should carefully distinguish between the two, as they differ enormously in scale, builder, and amenity set despite sharing a town.
