Homes for Sale in Fox Point, Barrington IL

Private Lake Living, Community Pool, Tennis Courts, and Established Barrington Homes

Homes for sale in Fox Point, Barrington IL offer buyers something notably different from many other Barrington subdivisions: an established single-family neighborhood built around its own private recreational amenities. Fox Point was primarily developed during the 1960s and 1970s and is located west of Ela Road and south of Lake Cook Road in Lake County. Homes vary considerably in design and size, with current subdivision data showing residences from approximately 2,740 to 6,780 square feet.

The neighborhood's defining feature is its amenity package. The Fox Point Homeowners Association identifies a private lake, community swimming pool, and tennis courts for residents, while subdivision data also lists a clubhouse, docks, park and playground, sidewalks, water rights, and waterfront properties.

For buyers who want recreational amenities without giving up the character of an established Barrington neighborhood, Fox Point deserves particular attention.

Learn more about Fox Point

Fox Point is centered around Lake Louise, giving the neighborhood a distinctive layout and lifestyle. The Village of Barrington’s comprehensive plan describes this part of Barrington as predominantly single-family residential, with homes surrounding the large man-made lake and nearby natural areas including Cuba Marsh and Flint Creek.

Unlike communities where buyers encounter only a handful of standardized layouts, Fox Point includes numerous established home models. Examples include the Ashley, Barcelona, Battersea, Berkshire, Bristol, Dorchester, Hudson, Lancaster, Monterey, Princeton, Roanoke, Sheffield, Versailles, and Wakefield. These layouts vary in bedroom count, bathroom configuration, basement style, and square footage.

The community’s amenities also remain active today. The Fox Point pool operates seasonally, and the homeowners association maintains resident information for the lake, tennis program, pool, architectural guidelines, community events, budgets, and association governance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. Fox Point's homeowners association identifies Lake Louise as the community's private lake, and subdivision information lists lake access, docks, water rights, and waterfront properties among neighborhood features. Buyers should still verify the exact lake privileges and responsibilities attached to the individual property they are considering.

Yes. Fox Point maintains a community swimming pool for residents. The association publishes seasonal operating hours, guest policies, and information about its swim program.

Yes. Fox Point has tennis courts, and current neighborhood information also lists a clubhouse, park/playground, sidewalks, streetlights, docks, lake amenities, and water rights. This combination makes Fox Point particularly relevant for buyers prioritizing neighborhood recreation.

Yes. Waterfront properties exist within Fox Point, and current listings include homes marketed specifically for their waterfront setting. However, not every Fox Point property is directly on the water, so buyers should distinguish between direct waterfront, lake views, and general community lake access when comparing homes.

Fox Point was primarily developed during the 1960s and 1970s. Current subdivision data reports construction between 1964 and 1978. Because these homes have had decades for remodeling and additions, renovation history can create substantial differences between otherwise similar properties.

Current neighborhood data reports homes ranging from approximately 2,740 to 6,780 square feet. Fox Point also includes numerous named floor plans, ranging from more modest layouts to homes exceeding 4,000 square feet.

Fox Point operates through an active homeowners association that imposes an annual assessment on homes to fund operating expenses and reserve contributions. The association states that certain social, competitive water-sports, and tennis programs are separately pay-for-use rather than funded through the regular assessment. Buyers should obtain the current annual assessment and association documents for the property rather than relying on older third-party fee estimates.

Current subdivision information lists Arnett C. Lines Elementary School, Barrington Middle School – Station Campus, and Barrington High School within Barrington Community Unit School District 220. Buyers should confirm current attendance boundaries directly with District 220 using the exact property address.

Yes. Fox Point currently has multiple single-family homes listed for sale, although the exact number and asking prices change as properties enter and leave the market. This gives buyers more immediate options than in some smaller Barrington subdivisions where inventory can remain at zero for extended periods.

Because most Fox Point homes date to the 1960s and 1970s, buyers should carefully review renovation history along with the roof, windows, HVAC systems, electrical service, plumbing, basement, drainage, insulation, and exterior materials. For lakefront properties, buyers should also investigate shoreline conditions, drainage, water-related responsibilities, and any association requirements affecting waterfront improvements.

Explore Fox Point Homes

Fox Point stands apart from many Barrington subdivisions because the neighborhood itself plays such a significant role in the ownership experience. Lake Louise, the community pool, tennis courts, parks, docks, and other recreational features give residents amenities that extend beyond their individual homes.

The housing stock also provides considerable variety. Buyers can compare different architectural styles, floor plans, renovation levels, waterfront positions, and home sizes rather than choosing among nearly identical properties. That makes condition, location within Fox Point, and proximity or orientation to Lake Louise particularly important when evaluating value.

If lake-oriented living and an amenity-rich neighborhood match your priorities, explore homes for sale in Fox Point, Barrington IL and discover available properties in one of Barrington's distinctive established communities.
