Knoch Knolls
Suburban Neighborhood in Naperville, Illinois
DuPage County 60565
"Homes go fast..."
According to Nicole Meyers, Knoch Knolls resident and Realtor with Christie's International Real Estate, “Homes go fast here. It’s a relatively good price point, it's super close to Downtown Naperville, and the schools are insanely good.” The subdivision was built in the 1980s with posh neo-colonial mansions made of brick on large, green lots. Some newer palatial modern farmhouses have been added, but the neighborhood has retained its character. Prices range between $700,000 and $1 million. Recently, one of the largest properties on the DuPage River, a massive neo-Victorian estate on an acre overlooking the river, listed for $3.4 million, but that’s an outlier.

The A+ Indian Prairie School District #204
The Indian Prairie School District #204 is, indeed, “insanely good,” with an A-plus rating from Niche and a ranking of 13th-best out of the 416 school districts in Illinois. Spring Brook Elementary School is walkable from every house and received an A-plus on Niche. It’s also ranked the 18th-best public elementary school in Illinois out of 2,225. Gordon Gregory Middle School also received an A-plus and is ranked 9th out of 1,380 public middle schools in the state. Similarly, Neuqua Valley High School received an A-plus and is ranked 9th out of 704 public high schools in Illinois. This year, 62 Neuqua Valley seniors in the World Languages Department were awarded the Illinois Seal of Biliteracy.

The Knoch Knolls Nature Center and DuPage River
The DuPage River, which runs alongside Knoch Knolls, seems to mirror the friendly and open character of the Midwesterners who visit it. Mellow enough for a swim or an innertube ride, the kayak/canoe launch sees a fair share of boaters adventuring downriver when the water level is high and moving at a fast clip. In 2014, the vast Knoch Knolls Nature Center opened to immediate fanfare, winning a sustainable design award and quickly becoming a neighborhood favorite for its family and kid-centered activities. Kelley Munch, Senior Communications Specialist for the city of Naperville, says, “The residents support and respect the parks and enjoy the events that take place during the year.” Knoch Knolls Park has grown to encompass almost 100 acres and offers miles of paved and dirt trails and, of course, Virginia Blue Bells. Old Sawmill Park is a small playground area nearby. Residents can continue a few blocks north to enter 1,800 acres of wilderness in the Springbrook Prairie Forest Preserve.

Take the Naperville Metra Station
Knoch Knolls is approximately 4 miles away from the Naperville Metra Station. The ride from Naperville to Union Station in Downtown Chicago takes about an hour, which is about the same time it takes to drive using Interstate 88. The rapid growth of Naperville and the surrounding western Chicago suburbs has allowed many residents to work in the area, making the commute around 90% shorter.Trader Joes and Indian food
Downtown Historic Naperville is just over 3 miles north of Knoch Knolls. The campus of North Central College has operated here since 1861. Today, it offers adult education for residents and musical performances and theatrical shows open to the public. There are many great restaurants in this area. On the other side of Springbrook Prairie is Mesón Sabika, where Spanish tapas is served in an old neo-colonial building. Sweet Toast Café is a popular breakfast spot next to Knoch Knolls. A Trader Joe’s and Endeavor Health Edward Hospitalare nearby. McDonald Farm has a concert series called Music on the Farm every summer, and Keller’s Farmstand sells local groceries all year long. Naperville Fire Department Station 5 and Care Animal Clinic are on the north side of the neighborhood.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
