About the community
A new M/I Homes single-family community minutes from historic downtown Plainfield.
Leighton Pointe is a new-construction single-family community by M/I Homes on the northwest corner of Heggs Road and 135th Street in Plainfield, in Will County. Planned at roughly ninety homes and now selling, it delivers larger two-story homes on a walkable street grid with sidewalks and a pocket park, less than about ten minutes from historic downtown Plainfield. A three-car garage and full basement come standard, and the homes lean to the move-up size range. As an early-to-mid-phase community, it offers both to-be-built and quick-move-in homes while sections continue to deliver.

What it’s actually like to live here
Leighton Pointe is aimed at move-up buyers who want a large, brand-new home with modern open layouts, a three-car garage, and a full basement as standard, in a town that consistently ranks among the most desirable in Will County. Daily life centers on space and newness: energy-efficient construction, current finishes, and a low-maintenance home where nothing needs replacing for years. The pocket park, sidewalks, and direct access to the amenity-rich Community Park at Grande Park make it easy to get outside, and Plainfield's large park district, river trail, and historic downtown give the area a real community feel beyond the subdivision itself.
The honest tradeoffs of new-construction living apply here. Because the community is still building out toward roughly ninety homes, early residents live alongside active construction, truck traffic, and unfinished streetscapes until the neighborhood completes, and landscaping and tree canopy take years to fill in. Builder pricing and incentives move with the market, which means two neighbors can pay meaningfully different amounts for similar homes depending on when they bought, so read the HOA and any special assessments closely before signing.
Prospective buyers should weigh the commute and the tax picture realistically. This is a car-oriented location: there is no train in Plainfield, so a Metra commute means driving to a BNSF station first, and the trip to downtown Chicago is a real one. Will County property taxes are well above the national average, and new-construction bills tend to climb after the first full assessment. For the buyer who values a large new home, good schools, and suburban amenities over a short transit commute, Leighton Pointe delivers a strong package.

Your local agent
Joe knows Leighton Pointe
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.
