About the community
Attached townhomes with two-car garages at the attainable end of DuPage County.
Timber Creek is a small community of attached two-story townhomes on Timber Drive in southwest Warrenville, just east of Route 59 and reached by way of Meadow Avenue. It was built between roughly 1989 and 1991 and holds about 92 homes, all with attached two-car garages, private fenced patios, and no basements. Vaulted and cathedral ceilings and skylights run through the floor plans, which is very much the late 1980s DuPage design vocabulary and makes the square footage read larger than it measures. What sets it apart is the combination: a two-car attached garage and District 200 schools at one of the more accessible price points in DuPage County, with a public park sitting inside the community itself.

What it’s actually like to live here
Timber Creek is what people in DuPage County are usually looking for when they say they want a low-maintenance home that does not feel like an apartment. The units are two-story townhomes with private fenced patios, vaulted ceilings and skylights that make the floor plans live larger than they measure, and two-car attached garages, which is not a given at this end of the market. The association handles lawn care, landscaping, snow removal, trash, exterior maintenance, and common insurance, so what you own is essentially the inside of the house and your patio. That combination attracts a specific mix: first-time buyers who want out of renting without taking on a lawn, downsizers who are done shoveling a driveway, and commuters who want to be a few miles from the Route 59 BNSF platform without paying Naperville prices for the privilege.
The setting is the part that surprises people. Timber Drive is a quiet residential loop set back from Route 59 rather than fronting it, and Kiwanis Park sits inside the community with a playground, swings, a picnic shelter, and pickleball, with several units backing directly to it. Beyond that, Warrenville is unusually well surrounded for a town of its size. Roughly 10,000 acres of forest preserve and Fermilab land wrap the city, the West Branch of the DuPage River runs through the middle of town and supports fishing and paddling, and the Illinois Prairie Path cuts through as well. Blackwell, Warrenville Grove, Herrick Lake, McDowell Grove, and St. James Farm are all local rather than day trips. If your weekend involves a bike, a kayak, or a dog, this is a strong address, and Cantigny Park and the Cantera entertainment cluster cover the rest.
The honest tradeoffs are worth stating plainly. The homes are now in their mid thirties and condition varies sharply unit to unit, with some carrying recent roof, window, HVAC, and kitchen work and others openly marketed as needing updates. Read the inspection carefully and the association's reserve study more carefully still, because in an attached community a neighbor's deferred maintenance is partly your problem. These are compact plans: under 1,500 sq ft with no basement and predominantly two bedrooms means storage is finite and this is not a home you grow a large family into. DuPage County property taxes are real, so budget the tax and the monthly assessment together rather than treating the assessment as the only carrying cost. Downtown Warrenville is small and quiet by design, so a walkable restaurant row means driving to Wheaton or Naperville. And there is no Metra station in Warrenville itself, so rail commuting means a drive to a park-and-ride rather than a walk to a platform.
The questions buyers actually ask
Timber Creek FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Timber Creek. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- Timber Creek is fully attached, so the association is a material part of the cost of ownership. Recent assessments reported on sales here run roughly $280 to $350 per month, covering common area insurance, exterior maintenance, lawn care and landscaping, trash removal, and snow removal. Dogs and cats are reported as permitted. No public association website, reserve study, or management contact was located, so request the declaration and bylaws, the current budget, the reserve study, and the Illinois 22.1 disclosure before waiving contingencies, and ask specifically about special assessment history and any rental restrictions.
- What are property taxes like?
- Roughly $5,000 – $8,000 per year, depending on home size and value. DuPage County assessor records are the source of truth. Happy to pull a specific bill on any home you're considering.
- What's the typical closing timeline?
- 30 to 60 days from accepted offer to keys. Cash deals can close in two weeks. Conventional financing is usually closer to 60.
- Are the homes in Timber Creek townhomes or single-family houses?
- Attached townhomes. Every unit is a two-story attached townhome with a two-car attached garage, a private patio, no basement, and a monthly association assessment. There are no detached single-family homes here. One point that matters for financing: although these live like townhomes, the recorded plat is a condominium, so ownership here is condominium rather than fee simple. Confirm the form of ownership and the association documents with your lender and attorney early, because condominium financing is underwritten differently.
- When was Timber Creek built, and how big is the community?
- It was built between roughly 1989 and 1991 and holds about 92 townhome-style condominium units, all on Timber Drive off Meadow Avenue east of Route 59. It is a small, self-contained neighborhood rather than a sprawling subdivision. Note that a separate townhome cluster further along Timber Drive was built in 1987 and is not part of Timber Creek.
- What does the association cover, and how much is it?
- Recent assessments have run in the range of roughly $280 to $350 per month. Association data reports the dues cover common area insurance, exterior maintenance, lawn care and landscaping, trash removal, and snow removal. Dogs and cats are reported as permitted. Before you go firm, ask for the declaration and bylaws, the current budget, the reserve study, and the Illinois 22.1 disclosure, and specifically ask about any pending or recent special assessments and any rental restrictions.
- Is there a pool or clubhouse?
- No. Timber Creek is a no-frills association with no pool and no verified private clubhouse. The real amenity is Kiwanis Park at Home Avenue and Meadow Avenue, a roughly one-acre Warrenville Park District park inside the community with a picnic shelter, swings, a tot lot for ages five and under, a playground for ages six to twelve, and pickleball. Residents also have Warrenville Park District access to the Recreation Center on Warren Avenue with its indoor track and fitness equipment.
- Which schools serve Timber Creek?
- Community Unit School District 200, the Wheaton Warrenville district. Listing records for Timber Drive addresses consistently report Clifford Johnson Elementary School on Continental Drive in Warrenville, Hubble Middle School on Herrick Road in Warrenville, and Wheaton Warrenville South High School on Tiger Trail in Wheaton. Those come from MLS data rather than a district boundary map, and attendance boundaries can change, so confirm your specific unit's assignment directly with District 200 before you rely on it.
- How is the commute, and what do homes cost?
- Timber Creek is directly east of Route 59 with I-88 roughly two to three miles south. The nearest Metra station is Route 59 on the BNSF line in Aurora, about four miles south, an accessible station with roughly 4,400 park-and-ride spaces. Union Pacific West line stations in Winfield and West Chicago are also a short drive north. There is no station in Warrenville itself. On pricing, check the Market snapshot on this page since it pulls live from the MLS. Qualitatively this sits at the attainable end of the DuPage County market and is one of the more accessible ways to buy an attached home with a two-car garage in District 200.

Your local agent
Joe knows Timber Creek
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
