Inverness is a quiet, upscale community of almost 7,000 residents. Located in both Palatine and Barrington Townships, just 35 miles north of Chicago, Inverness offers a rich history and strong sense of community. In the 1920’s, Inverness was changed from Deer Grove to Inverness and development began for young families so the children could be raised in a unique and beautiful country environment. Inverness real estate options consist of single-family detached homes, townhouses and condominiums. The neighborhoods were designed to take advantage of the contours and natural features of the land.
