While workers and interior designers have been hard at work putting the finishing touches on the much anticipated new Shorewood model from Olthof Homes’ recently introduced American Prairie Collection of Single Family Homes, a tremendous amount of excitement has been building for next weekend’s official grand opening at Crown Point’s Wyndham Woods.
“This model is the first Shorewood ever built by Olthof,” Carmen Ware, Olthof Homes’ sales manager, said. “It is truly everything we envisioned and more. Because this will be our only model in Wyndham Woods, we wanted to ensure that it portrays all of the charm and beauty of the American Prairie Collection. From the incredible wide-open living spaces to the magnificent views of this gorgeous community, we’re very pleased with the results. ”
One of four brand-new communities introducing Olthof’s affordable American Prairie Collection, Wyndham Woods will feature just 34 homes surrounded by natural woodlands, yet is just minutes away from Crown Point’s historic courthouse and downtown square.
Ideally situated on Marshall Street, just south of St. Anthony Hospital, Wyndham Woods offers homeowners a serene rural setting where development plans also include a winding walking trail, lushly landscaped parkways and welcoming decorative entrance. Along with the popular shopping, dining and entertainment destinations unique to Crown Point’s downtown square, residents will also appreciate the community’s close proximity to highly-acclaimed Crown Point schools including Lake Street Elementary, Taft Junior High School and the new state-of-the-art CP High School.
Already proving extremely popular with buyers, the American Prairie Collection features Olthof’s signature open floor plans, quality construction and comprehensive home warranty. In fact, prior to next Saturday’s official grand opening, 5 new homes have already been sold and are under construction at Wyndham Woods.
Combining fresh, architectural designs with a unique array of rich colors including blue, green, red, gray, mustard and tan, the American Prairie Collection includes ample square footage to meet the needs of today’s families, yet is reasonably-priced so you have the freedom to invest in the luxury options and upgrades that reflect your personal style and budget.
For example, options such as 3-car or extended garages, sunrooms, deluxe master baths, powder rooms and direct-vent fireplaces can be added to all of the plans in the American Prairie Collection. There are four distinct exterior elevations that include Traditional, Country, Classic, and Craftsman, all with unique brick and stone options. Interior standard features can be enhanced by selecting options individually or from a menu of value-priced option packages, according to Ware.
“With Olthof’s flexible option packages, buyers have been pleasantly surprised that even with a few choice options, the final prices of their new homes remained quite reasonable,” she said “The American Prairie Collection is a compelling alternative for buyers currently looking at existing homes. In the past Olthof Homes did not offer Single Family homes priced in the $210,000 - $230,000 range. We’re really excited to be able to offer buyers the choice of purchasing a brand new home in this value range.”
In addition to the Shorewood model at Wyndham Woods, which is a fully-loaded 2,323 square foot 2-story with 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths, models of the other 3 homes from the American Prairie Collection were recently opened in nearby Covington. Also located near the Crown Point downtown square, Covington is on Delaware, just south of 231.
“Right now we are offering special pre-construction discounts for a limited number of buyers at each of our four new communities featuring the American Prairie Collection,” Ware said. “In Wyndham Woods you can also save $20,000 on the first 2 Ready To Move In homes from the American Prairie Collection as part of our company-wide Red Tag Sale! promotion, when you close between now and the end of August.”
Recently completed, these Ready To Move In homes include the largest plan in the American Prairie Collection, a 2,720 square foot, 2-story Brookfield with a lovely front porch, full-height stone and windows on the garage door to enhance the exterior. With 4 bedrooms plus a game room and 2 baths, this home features an incredibly spacious kitchen that includes a handy built-in desk. There’s also a stunning lookout basement to take advantage of the incredible premium location. This is home is currently available for $254,915.
Also available now, the 1,968 square foot, 2-story Riverside has 3 bedrooms plus a game room and 2 _ baths. The great room features a fireplace, and the kitchen has beautiful cherry cabinets with upgraded Hi-Macs countertops and sliding doors from the breakfast area which lead to a generous concrete patio where you can enjoy the beautiful outdoor scenery. This home is available for $248,938.
The other two communities that offer Olthof’s American Prairie Collection include St. John’s Silverleaf, centrally located off of 109th St. just west of US 41, and Dyer’s Village Circle, conveniently located on US 30 between Rte. 41 and Calumet Ave. where the entire Olthof product line is now available with adjacent Hearthstone devoted to their Estate Collection of Single Family Homes and Rockwell dedicated to their Easy Living Collection of Maintenance Free Homes.
