Live South Elgin listings updated daily from the MLS — plus what local buyers should know before making a move.
Townhomes are South Elgin’s deep bench. Three communities carry most of the inventory: Park Pointe, Lennar’s 2020–2024 build with resales at roughly $365K–$395K; Cambridge Bluffs, the established townhome neighborhood east of Route 31 trading from the low $300Ks to about $415K; and Prairie Pointe, whose townhome phases run through the $300Ks. In a village where the median sale is about $351K and detached homes climb quickly past $400K, this is where first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors all shop—and where well-priced units go pending in days.

Active listings pulled directly from the MLS.
Two-to-three-bedroom homes from roughly 1,400 to 2,221 square feet, most with attached two-car garages. The range runs from 1990s associations with mature trees to Park Pointe units a few years old with current-code construction and, in some cases, transferable builder warranty coverage. Monthly HOA fees span widely—roughly $170 to $325 depending on the association and what it covers—so the all-in monthly cost varies more than list prices suggest.
Park Pointe is the newest: three Lennar plans (Georgetown, Amherst, Chelsea) finished in 2024, HOA around $173–$223. Cambridge Bluffs offers more square footage per dollar with fees around $310–$325 covering more of the exterior. Prairie Pointe’s townhome phases are the entry point, often in the low-to-mid $300Ks. All three sit in U-46’s Clinton–Kenyon Woods–South Elgin High feeder pattern—verify by address.
Most South Elgin townhomes are fee-simple with standard financing—simpler than condo lending—but always confirm title type up front. Compare HOA fees against inclusions, not just each other: a $310 fee covering roof and siding can beat a $180 fee that doesn’t. Investors: these associations lease reliably, but check rental caps and waiting lists before you write.
Competition is real—townhomes are the village’s most-contested product under $400K, and roughly half of recent sales closed over list. Tour within a day or two of listing and come pre-approved. If your budget stretches past $400K, compare against entry detached homes on the under-$500K page—sometimes the step up is smaller than it looks. Call or text Kealan at 630-381-4995 to run both.
