Doubletree Lake Estates is the gated, 24-hour guarded lake community in the Town of Winfield. People search Crown Point because the schools are Crown Point for most addresses. The town hall and the tax bill are Winfield. Say both names when you search.
Who lives in Doubletree
Buyers who want a gate, a private lake, and a custom or semi-custom house, and who already accepted Crown Point schools. The HOA site describes waterfront, wooded, cul-de-sac, and walkout lots. That mix is why one street is not a comp for the next. Illinois buyers who toured Crown Point and wanted more privacy than the square often add this neighborhood to the same weekend.
The tradeoff
You are not on the Crown Point square. You are in a guarded subdivision with dues and covenants. The HOA site has listed annual dues around $1,200 to $1,650 in older posts. Confirm the current number. If you want a public street and no gate, stay in town. If you want the lake and the guardhouse, budget for both.
What homes actually trade for
Houses here typically sit at or above $400,000. The community site has described architecture from the high $300s up to estate homes over $2 million, with current builder language in the $500s and up. Luxor Homes cites $550,000 to over $1 million. Davis Homes listed a 4,728 square foot home at $828,990. We do not have a verified 2026 neighborhood median. Use recent closed sales on the lake and off it, and do not price a waterfront lot with an interior resale.
Schools and commute
Community and builder pages list Crown Point schools. Confirm the parcel. I-65 at 109th Avenue is the usual interstate hop. There is no South Shore station in Winfield. If you need Chicago rail, you are driving. Check the current schedule.
