Grand Dominion

Mundelein, Lake County, Illinois  ·  725 Homes  ·  55+ Active Adult Community

Overview

Grand Dominion is a single-family-only 55+ community in Mundelein, one of the larger north Lake County municipalities. The community distinguishes itself with upscale construction standards — higher-grade exterior materials, more substantial lot sizes, and premium interior finish packages compared to the typical mid-2000s suburban active adult build. At 725 single-family detached homes, it is one of the larger pure single-family 55+ communities in the north suburbs.

Lake County's effective property tax rate of approximately 2.5% is among the highest in the Chicago metro, and buyers should account for this directly. On a $375,000 home, annual taxes run approximately $9,375. The income tax exemption benefit partially offsets this, but Lake County is genuinely more expensive to own in than DuPage or McHenry.

Mundelein provides good north suburban positioning — close to Libertyville, Vernon Hills retail corridor, and the Milwaukee District North Metra line at Mundelein station. Northwestern Medicine Lake Forest Hospital is approximately 12 miles east.
