The Village describes Port Barrington Shores as containing 36 luxury residential units, although a 2025 village document referenced 33 condo units for municipal service purposes. Buyers should rely on current association and title documents for the exact legal unit count and ownership structure.

Documented models include the Atrium, Brigadiere, Castaway, Driftwood, and Innsbrook. These include both two- and three-bedroom configurations, with several plans providing three or more bathrooms.

Review flood-zone information, flood insurance requirements, shoreline conditions, seawall responsibility, drainage, basement history, docking rights, and association rules. Waterfront properties should be evaluated differently from otherwise similar inland townhomes.

Current subdivision data reports monthly assessments generally ranging from approximately $314 to $464, depending on the property and source. Buyers should verify the current assessment and review exactly what the association covers, including exterior maintenance, common areas, waterfront infrastructure, and reserves.

With only a few dozen residences, available inventory can be limited. Buyers specifically targeting the community may benefit from monitoring it closely rather than expecting multiple waterfront properties to be listed simultaneously.
