About Brophy Farm

Brophy Farm is the most active market in Fox Lake — five single-family homes currently listed from $319,000 to $479,000, against overall activity from the $240s to $695K (median $347K). It's the town's newer-built family core, minutes from the Chain O'Lakes without the waterfront premium.

Full disclosure on why we know this market cold: Josh owns in Fox Lake and runs the Chain by boat all summer. This is the neighborhood we point mainland-priced buyers to when they realize lake-town living costs less than their suburban rent.

Off-Market & Private Listings

Some homes for sale in Brophy Farm never show up online

Our MLS runs a Private Listing Network — real listings agents can see that never appear on Zillow or any public site, because the sellers want privacy. We can't advertise them. What we can do is share matches directly with our own buyers. If Brophy Farm is where you want to be, tell us exactly what you're looking for — we'll watch the private side for you, and we'll only contact you about that.
