When autumn rolls around, bunches of bold orange leaves gather on the sidewalks of Brookdale. Even the stark green road verges are dotted with vibrant foliage from the new and old-growth trees lining the streets. Behind them stand Colonial Revivals and custom homes with traditional architecture—no two sharing the same features. Some flaunt the embellishments of the Queen Anne style, while others offer midcentury modern appeal. All offer paved driveways leading to two and sometimes three-car garages, as well as spacious backyards with modest gardens contained by neat fencing. Priced between $400,000 and $700,000, homes in these subdivisions rest on quarter-acre lots with neighbors no more than 30 feet apart. Townhomes line Aurora Road, Route 59 and Raymond Drive.

An academically intense school district
The Indian Prairie Community Unit School District 204 serves Brookdale, where students begin at the titular primary school. Brookdale Elementary earns an A on Niche, along with Thayer J. Hill Middle School. Students in seventh and eighth grade are encouraged to begin their athletic journeys, while those of all grades are offered a plethora of extracurriculars in preparation for attendance at Metea Valley High School. With an A-plus on Niche, Metea Valley strategically organizes extracurriculars according to discipline to promote resume building. “I know many kids that went through District 204, and they all ended up at any college they wanted,” says Vanessa Bianchi, a broker with The Ville Team at Coldwell Banker Realty. “It’s a great, academically intense district that’s brought people to the community. It’s so diverse, hardly anyone feels like an outsider.”
Metea Valley High School is a top-rated, public school located in Aurora, IL.
Brookdale Elementary School has 463 students in grades K-5.

Ample commuter parking at the Route 59 Metra station
The Route 59 Metra station is less than 2 miles south of most Brookdale residents, providing extensive commuter parking options for the hour-long ride to Downtown Chicago. Those preferring to drive can expect a 33-mile commute on Interstates 290 and 88. Chicago Midway International Airport is about 34 miles in the same direction. Those traveling locally can expect a 3-mile drive to Downtown Naperville, where the closest emergency room is located at Endeavor Health Edward Hospital. Bus stops are found along Route 59, while a bike lane is offered on Brookdale Road, which connects to several nearby parks. Most residents, however, are entirely dependent on both personal vehicles and the Metra.

Decadent milkshakes and markets
Route 34 extends south of the Brookdale community, where residents will find an array of shopping and dining options. Fresh Thyme Market, an upscale grocery store, is less than a mile from Patel Brothers and Jewel-Osco. Between them are trendy haunts like the Sugar Milk Café, which serves decadent milkshakes topped with two inches of whipped cream. Solemn Oath Brewery is home to a Community Dome Forest, a campground-style patio where guests congregate in the glow of string lights and firepits. Target Grocery is about 2 miles south of Brookdale on Route 59. “There’s this place on Route 59 called Entourage that’s independently owned,” notes Bridget Salela, a broker with The Ville Team at Coldwell Banker Realty. “They’re hitting it out of the park. They’re fairly new—just started three years ago—and they’re doing great. It just shows that good mix of both big box stores and independent places that pop up.”

The “greens” of Brookdale
Brookdale’s parks are often referred to as “greens,” thanks to the expansive, multi-purpose fields that comprise a majority of their acreage. Queensbury Greens, in particular, offers a playground surrounded by an open field for pick-up games. Fox Hill Greens is home to the Brookdale Racquet Club & Pool, a neighborhood swim club providing tennis and pickleball courts with classes, camps and league opportunities. The eastern border of the community is largely flanked by the McDowell Grove Forest Preserve, where 7 miles of trails link to surrounding preserves, inviting guests to cross-country ski and even ride on horseback. The West Branch DuPage River is ideal for fishing and boating, along with the 22-acre Mud Lake. Farther south, Heritage Woods and Burlington Park offer access to the West Branch DuPage River Trail, where shorter trails branch off into the dense wooded enclave across the water.
