Carillon Club

Independent Assessment

Because 'Carillon' is reused as a marketing name across at least seven distinct, unrelated Chicago-metro 55+ communities -- including Carillon (Plainfield), Carillon Lakes (Crest Hill), Carillon North (Grayslake), Carillon at Stonegate (Aurora), and Carillon at Heatherstone (Beach Park) -- Carillon Club's Naperville-specific facts were confirmed against sources naming Naperville, D.R. Horton, and the 95th Street/Route 59 location specifically, rather than relying on any source that might conflate it with a same-named community elsewhere. The community's own HOA site, carillonclubhoa.com, independently corroborates the gated status, the 18,000-square-foot clubhouse, and the 3-hole golf course, giving the core facts strong support. At least one senior-living aggregator (miradorliving.com) lists Carillon Club under an 'assisted living' category page -- the same Seniorly/Mirador-style boilerplate pattern that is often attached to genuine, ordinary for-sale HOA communities. Given the overwhelming weight of independently corroborated evidence describing Carillon Club as a for-sale, D.R. Horton-built, deed-based 55+ homeownership community with its own HOA and clubhouse -- not a care facility -- that aggregator listing is treated as noise consistent with the established pattern, not as evidence the community offers care services.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers wanting an amenity-dense, actively programmed 55+ community -- with a 24-hour guard-gated entrance, an 18,000-square-foot clubhouse, indoor and outdoor pools, and an on-site 3-hole golf course -- will find Carillon Club a strong fit, particularly those who value a full-time activities director and an extensive club roster (bocce, ceramics, euchre, mah jongg, men's and ladies' golf, and more).

Homes, Builders & Development History

D.R. Horton built Carillon Club between 2007 and 2017, delivering approximately 778 homes across 23 distinct floor plans -- ranging from roughly 960 to over 2,600 square feet -- spanning condominiums, attached townhomes, and detached single-family designs. The community sits at the corner of 95th Street and Route 59 on the west side of Naperville, roughly 40 miles from downtown Chicago.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

Current closed-sale pricing at Carillon Club was not independently verified. Secondary sources report original new-construction starting prices around $355,000-$389,000, with active resale listings reported spanning up to roughly $830,000 depending on housing type and floor plan. Buyers should request current comparable sales from a local agent, since pricing will vary substantially by housing type (condo vs. attached townhome vs. detached single-family) and original construction vintage across the 2007-2017 build-out.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

With construction completed by 2017 and no evidence of ongoing new-home sales found, Carillon Club operates primarily as a resale market. Buyers should budget for an independent inspection reflecting each home's age across the 2007-2017 build-out and should request the HOA's current financials, reserve study, and governing documents (including age-restriction language) before purchasing.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Carillon Club are subject to City of Naperville and DuPage County property tax administration; DuPage County is reported (per an unverified aggregator-sourced figure cited on this site's DuPage County area page) to carry some of the lowest effective property tax rates in the Chicago metro. No independently confirmed current effective property tax rate for specific parcels within the community was found; buyers should confirm exact current figures with the DuPage County Assessor.

Golf

Carillon Club includes an on-site 3-hole, par-3 golf course intended for residents to practice their short game, distinct from the larger 18-hole and 27-hole public courses found at some other Chicago-metro 55+ communities (such as the 27-hole Links at Carillon in Plainfield, an unrelated community despite the shared 'Carillon' name). Current course hours, any associated fees, and whether the course is open to the general public were not independently confirmed.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Carillon Club's 24-hour guard-gated entrance and 18,000-square-foot clubhouse anchor a genuinely amenity-dense lifestyle for a community of its size, supported by a full-time activities director and clubs spanning bocce, ceramics, cocktail hours, euchre, golf, mah jongg, a men's breakfast club, and Mexican train dominoes. The mix of condominiums, attached townhomes, and detached single-family homes across 23 floor plans gives buyers meaningfully more housing-type choice within one community.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Carillon Club sits on the west side of Naperville, DuPage County, at the corner of 95th Street and Route 59, roughly half a mile west of Route 59 and approximately 7 miles from I-88. The community is reported to be about 40 miles from downtown Chicago, with Naperville's historic downtown, parks, shops, and restaurants a reported 15-20 minute drive away.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Carillon Club is consistently and repeatedly described as an age-restricted 55+ community by its own HOA website (carillonclubhoa.com) and by every independent secondary directory reviewed. The exact current restriction language and age-verification procedure were not confirmed against DuPage County's recorded declaration of covenants for the community, which was not independently reviewed. Buyers should confirm current requirements directly with the HOA before purchasing.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Carillon Club's reported HOA fees run roughly $313-$743/month depending on housing type, reflecting its larger amenity base and gated security. As a community built out over a decade (2007-2017), buyers should also expect meaningful variation in home condition and mechanical-system age depending on original construction date and subsequent owner upkeep. Nothing in the sources reviewed confirmed current exact HOA fees for a specific housing type, current closed-sale pricing, or the precise current operating hours/membership terms for the golf course; buyers should verify all of these directly.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within Naperville, Carillon Club offers considerably more scale and amenity depth (778 homes, an 18,000-square-foot clubhouse, and an on-site golf course) than its smaller DuPage County neighbors Ashwood Crossing (103 homes, no clubhouse), Hampton Park (62 homes), and Hobson Villas (42 homes). It should not be confused with any of the other unrelated Chicago-metro communities sharing the 'Carillon' marketing name, including Carillon (Plainfield), Carillon Lakes (Crest Hill), Carillon North (Grayslake), Carillon at Stonegate (Aurora), and Carillon at Heatherstone (Beach Park) -- all separately owned and governed.

Current Listings

Multiple secondary marketplaces (55places, Homes by Marco, chicagosuburbliving.com) and the community's own HOA site list current available resale homes by floor plan; a connected local agent can also assist.

How many homes are in Carillon Club?

Approximately 778 homes across 23 floor plans (condominiums, attached townhomes, and detached single-family homes), built by D.R. Horton between 2007 and 2017.

Is Carillon Club the same community as the other 'Carillon' communities in the Chicago area?

No. Carillon Club in Naperville is a distinct, separately built and governed community from Carillon (Plainfield), Carillon Lakes (Crest Hill), Carillon North (Grayslake), Carillon at Stonegate (Aurora), and Carillon at Heatherstone (Beach Park). All share the 'Carillon' marketing name but have no shared corporate ownership.

Yes, it is described as a 24-hour guard-gated community.

Does Carillon Club offer assisted-living or care services?

No. It is an ordinary for-sale, HOA-governed homeownership community with its own dedicated HOA website. At least one senior-living aggregator attaches generic 'assisted living' category boilerplate to its listing; no evidence the community itself offers care services was found.
