South Pointe is the newest single-family neighborhood in South Elgin—two-story Lennar homes built 2019–2023 off Barry Road near Route 25, from about 2,258 to 3,550 square feet, now trading as near-new resales at roughly $515K to $640K.
South Pointe is where South Elgin’s housing stock got its latest chapter: Lennar built the community between 2019 and 2023 off Barry Road, west of Route 25 and south of Middle Street on the village’s east side. The neighborhood is exclusively two-story single-family homes—no attached product—on a compact street grid with its own park and playground, and it sold out before the adjacent Park Pointe townhomes finished in 2024.
The homes run from about 2,258 to 3,550 square feet with the open-plan layouts, flex rooms, and attached garages Lennar was building at the time—current-code construction with young roofs, mechanicals, and windows, which changes the inspection conversation compared with the village’s 1990s stock. Several plans, including the larger Santa Rosa-type footprints, push past 3,200 square feet. On many resales, portions of the original builder warranty—particularly structural coverage—may still transfer; we confirm specifics with the warranty administrator during attorney review.
For buyers, the math is simple: this is the newest detached housing in South Elgin, and it trades at a premium to the village median—recent resales have run roughly $515K to $640K against a village-wide median sale near $351K. The HOA is minimal (about $42–$44 a month), the U-46 feeder pattern runs Clinton Elementary, Kenyon Woods Middle, and South Elgin High, and the village center’s riverfront parks are a few minutes west. Supply is the constraint—often zero or one active listing—so serious buyers watch it rather than wait for it.
Pricing reflects South Pointe sales and listing data as of mid-2026.
The community’s smaller two-stories—roughly 2,258 to 2,700 square feet with three-to-four bedrooms—anchor the entry of the neighborhood’s resale range and draw move-up buyers from the village’s 1990s subdivisions.

The neighborhood includes its own park and playground on the internal street grid, with sidewalks throughout—typical of Lennar’s late-2010s community design.

Route 25 and the Stearns Road corridor put IL-390 and the I-90 interchange within practical reach, and Bartlett’s Metra station on the Milwaukee District West line is a short drive east.
