Kensington Club Neighborhood Guide
Kensington Club is one of Plainfield's most established master-planned communities, sitting on the north side of town near Route 59 and built around the kind of amenities that make a neighborhood feel like a destination in itself. The centerpiece is a clubhouse and pool complex that draws residents together through the warmer months, and the broader community is large enough that there are always people out on the streets, in the parks, and at neighborhood events. It is the kind of place where knowing your neighbors is more the rule than the exception, and where families tend to put down roots rather than pass through. The trade-off for all that scale is that the subdivision spans enough ground that crossing it takes real time, and on the hottest summer days the pool lot fills quickly. For families who want an active, amenity-rich community where there is always something happening, Kensington Club delivers consistently.
