About the community
A green, open-space new-construction community by Lennar in southeast Algonquin.
Algonquin Meadows is an active Lennar community on roughly 80 acres in the southeast corner of Algonquin, east of Randall Road and just north of Longmeadow Parkway. Entitled in 2024 and building out across 2025 and 2026, it delivers three product lines: single-family homes, traditional townhomes, and urban townhomes, under Lennar's Everything's Included approach where a defined feature package comes standard. The plan leans on open space rather than a clubhouse-and-pool campus, setting aside about a third of the site as naturalized stormwater basins, a conservation corridor, and ponds, which gives the single-family side a low-density, green feel.

What it’s actually like to live here
Algonquin Meadows is aimed at buyers who want a brand-new home in an established Fox Valley suburb without paying custom-build prices. The three-tier product mix, from urban townhomes to full single-family homes, lets a wide range of buyers into the same neighborhood: first-time and downsizing buyers on the townhome side, and move-up families on the single-family side. Because it plugs into an already mature stretch of Algonquin next to Willoughby Farms, residents get nearby schools, the Randall Road retail corridor, and Fox River recreation from day one.
The community's identity leans on open space and natural stormwater design rather than resort-style amenities. Roughly a third of the site is open ground, with naturalized basins, a wetland-buffering conservation corridor, and ponds giving the neighborhood a green, low-density feel on the single-family side. Longmeadow Parkway's 2024 completion is a real tailwind, improving east-west access across the Fox River that was a long-standing regional bottleneck.
The honest tradeoffs: this is not a clubhouse-and-pool community, and it notably lacks its own dedicated park, so families relying on public play space will lean on nearby Willoughby Farms Park. Kane County property taxes run at a high effective rate, which raises the true monthly cost beyond the mortgage, and there is no Metra stop in Algonquin, so plan on driving to rail. As with any active build-out, buyers will live alongside construction until the community sells through, and townhome buyers should pin down the full HOA picture before signing.

Algonquin Meadows FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Algonquin Meadows. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- Algonquin Meadows carries a homeowners association whose dues differ by home type: townhome owners pay for shared landscaping, snow removal, and common areas, while single-family owners typically pay a lower common-area assessment. Confirm the exact dues and what they cover for the specific home and product line with the builder and the recorded HOA documents.
- What are property taxes like?
- Roughly $9,000 – $17,000 per year, depending on home size and value. Kane County assessor records are the source of truth. Happy to pull a specific bill on any home you're considering.
- When was Algonquin Meadows built?
- Lennar built the community between 2025 and 2026.
- What's the typical closing timeline?

- Who is the builder of Algonquin Meadows?
- Lennar is the builder and developer. It is a Lennar Everything's Included community, meaning a defined set of features comes standard.

- Three collections: single-family homes, traditional townhomes, and larger urban townhomes. Most are three to four bedrooms with two-car garages, and the single-family plans include basements.
- What school district serves the community?
- Community Unit School District 300. Westfield Community School (K-8) and Harry D. Jacobs High School are commonly assigned, with the on-site Westfield building just east of the community. Attendance is set by address and can change, so confirm the specific homesite with District 300 before you buy.
- Is there an HOA, and what does it cover?
- Yes. Dues differ by home type: townhome owners pay for shared landscaping, snow removal, and common areas, while single-family owners typically pay a lower common-area assessment. Confirm the exact dues and inclusions with Lennar and the HOA documents.
- What is the commute and access like?
- The community sits about a quarter mile east of Randall Road, with Longmeadow Parkway (opened 2024, tolled river bridge) just south. Randall Road connects south to I-90 at Elgin. There is no Metra station in Algonquin, so the nearest commuter rail is in Cary, Crystal Lake, or the Elgin area.

Your local agent
Joe knows Algonquin Meadows
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
