Andaré at Woodlore Estates

Legally age-restricted 55+mixed

Andaré at Woodlore Estates is a Lennar-built 55+ community within the larger master-planned Woodlore Estates development in Crystal Lake, McHenry County's largest city. Construction began in 2018 under Lennar's Andaré active-adult sub-brand, offering six ranch-style floor plans exclusively to buyers aged 55 and better. Homes are low-maintenance, with lawn mowing and snow removal included, and the community is organized around an on-site clubhouse. As of the last update, secondary sources indicate no active homes for sale, suggesting the community may be fully built out and resale-only, though this was not definitively confirmed.

Overview

Independent Assessment

Lennar's own official community page states the homes are available exclusively for homebuyers aged 55 and better, a direct builder-source restriction claim that gives the age-qualification finding here stronger-than-average support. However, a secondary-source figure of approximately 105 total homes could not be independently corroborated -- no source found gave a definitive total planned or built home count, only the six-floor-plan lineup and size range. This gap is flagged in atAGlance and should be resolved with a direct call to the Lennar sales office or a review of the recorded plat before the home-count figure is treated as reliable.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers who want a low-maintenance, single-story 55+ home in Crystal Lake -- within two miles of shopping, dining, and healthcare, and less than four miles from Three Oaks Recreation Center and Lake Park/Main Beach -- are likely to find Andaré at Woodlore Estates appealing, particularly those who want an established rather than still-under-construction community.
