About the plan
A planned Shodeen community in Campton Hills, IL
LaFox of Campton Hills is a Shodeen master-planned community proposed for the La Fox area of Campton Hills. As put forward, it covers roughly 962 acres and would deliver about 900 single-family homes, with around 440 of those acres preserved as open space. That open-space share is a big part of the pitch: a community designed with parks, trails, and greenway rather than wall-to-wall rooftops, which fits the semi-rural character of Campton Hills.
Shodeen is a well-known Kane County developer with a long track record of large master-planned communities in the Tri-Cities area. On a project this size, the individual home builders and their floor plans are typically rolled out phase by phase, and none of that has been released for LaFox of Campton Hills yet. It would be premature to guess, so this page states what is on the public record and marks the rest as not yet released.
It is important to be clear-eyed about the stage. Campton Hills annexed the land in 2025, and as of 2026 a special taxing district to fund infrastructure was still under review. This is a long-runway project measured in years, not months. For a buyer with time, that is not a drawback, it is an opportunity: getting educated and on the list now means you are ready the moment the first real phase, builder, and price sheet appear.
Location and lifestyle
Campton Hills and La Fox: open space with a train
Campton Hills is one of the more distinctive communities in Kane County: a village that deliberately kept a low-density, semi-rural feel west of the busier St. Charles and Geneva Tri-Cities. The La Fox area sits along Route 38, surrounded by farmland, forest preserve, and estate-style acreage, so a master-planned community here is a notable addition rather than one more subdivision in a wall of them.
The commuter story is what makes La Fox unusual for an area this open: it has its own Metra station on the Union Pacific West line, which runs into the Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago. Pair that with quick access to the Randall Road corridor for shopping and to downtown St. Charles and Geneva for dining and the Fox River, and you get country-style surroundings without giving up a real train and real amenities.
On schools, a Campton Hills address in the La Fox area may fall in St. Charles Community Unit School District 303 or Central Community Unit School District 301, depending on the exact parcel, so this is one to confirm carefully with the districts before you buy. I will publish the confirmed schools here once they are set for the community.
Market context
New construction in Kane County
Large, greenfield master-planned communities have become rare in the close-in collar counties, which is what makes a roughly 962-acre plan in Kane County notable. When a developer with Shodeen's track record commits to a community of this scale, and designs it around a large open-space set-aside and a Metra stop, it is a long-term bet on demand for new construction on the west edge of the Tri-Cities.
For buyers, the value of following a project this early is information and position. On a phased community, the first releases in each neighborhood tend to offer the best lots and the most pricing flexibility. Being on the list from the start means you hear about each builder and each phase as it opens, instead of finding out after the best homesites are gone.
The honest framing is that this is planned, not selling. Timelines on a project this size shift as approvals, financing, and engineering firm up. That is exactly why an educated, ready buyer has the edge, and why getting on the list now, at no cost, is the smart first move.
What you need to know
Buying new construction, the smart way
Whichever builders end up in LaFox of Campton Hills, the same rule applies: the person at the model's sales desk works for the builder, not for you. You are allowed, and smart, to bring your own agent to represent your side, and in almost every case it costs you nothing, because the builder budgets a co-broke commission into the deal whether you bring an agent or not.
The catch is timing. Most builders require your agent to register you on your first visit. Tour or sign up alone first and bring an agent later, and the builder can refuse to recognize them, and you lose your representation. So get connected with a buyer's agent before you tour, have them register you, and let them read the contract, the addenda, and, on a community like this, the special-taxing-district disclosure, so you know exactly what you are signing.
That is where I come in. I'm Joe Keegan, a broker with Brokerocity, and Subdiview is how I track new construction across the northwest and western suburbs. I represent buyers at LaFox of Campton Hills and other new communities at no cost to you, and I make sure you are registered correctly before your first visit.

- Who is building LaFox of Campton Hills?
- The developer is Shodeen, a longtime Kane County developer known for large master-planned communities in the Tri-Cities area.

This local guide is where verified builder, pricing, and plan details will appear first.
- When will homes at LaFox of Campton Hills be available?
- There is no sales date.

- What is the special taxing district I have heard about?
- A large master-planned community needs roads, water, sewer, and other infrastructure, and developers often fund that through a special taxing district, which was under review in 2026 for this project. For a buyer, a special taxing district can affect your property-tax bill, so it is something to understand before you buy, not after. I will help you read exactly how it applies to a specific home once details are public.
