Reasonably Priced New Homes in Exclusive Crown Point Community

One of four new communities recently introduced by Olthof Homes, Crown Point’s Wyndham Woods pairs their affordable American Prairie Collection with a secluded setting that features just 34 exclusive home sites enveloped in pristine natural woods, all within minutes of the beautiful and historic downtown square.

Ideally situated off of Marshall Street, just south of St. Anthony Hospital, Wyndham Woods offers homeowners a serene rural setting where development plans include a winding walking trail, lushly landscaped parkways and a welcoming decorative entrance. In addition to the popular shopping, dining and entertainment destinations that are unique to the downtown square district, Crown Point’s highly-acclaimed Lake Street Elementary, Taft Junior High School and the newly-built High School are all nearby as well.

Designed and built for people who want to enjoy life, Olthof communities offer new home buyers a variety of options to fit their personal lifestyle and budget needs. Strategically positioned in prime locations throughout northwest Indiana, they currently include Maintenance-Free options from the Easy Living Collection and Single Family homes from the company’s Estate Collection. The recent introduction of Olthof’s American Prairie Collection in four new communities makes new home ownership accessible to even more people.

“The American Prairie Collection is a compelling alternative for buyers currently looking at existing homes,” Carmen Ware, Olthof Homes’ sales manager, said. “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.”

Already proving extremely popular with buyers, the American Prairie Collection features Olthof’s signature open floor plans, quality construction and comprehensive home warranty.

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 to give buyers the freedom to invest their earnings as they wish. For example, you can choose to invest in more square feet, exterior finishes or the individual options that reflect your personal style and budget, according to Ware.

“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 or the option to take advantage of our current Bells and Whistles Extravaganza promotion to maximize their savings," she said. “We’ve had an incredible number of buyers take advantage of these tremendous savings in spite of the crazy winter weather.”

All together, there are four unique home plans in the American Prairie Collection. Each plan features a variety of options to personalize the interior spaces that include 3-car or extended garages, full basements and/or sunrooms. With Olthof’s flexible, value-priced option packages, buyers have been pleasantly surprised to find that the final prices of their new homes, which even include a few choice options, still remained very close to the quoted base prices, according to Ware.

Prior to an official grand opening, four new homes have been sold at Wyndham Woods. There is also a recently completed Ready To Move In home available there. The largest plan in the American Prairie Collection, this 2,720 square foot Brookfield features 4 bedrooms, 2 _ baths and a 2-car garage. Outside of a stunning lookout basement, Olthof has kept this home relatively basic and chose green and brown for the exterior with stone accents. The list price is $261,982 which does not include current promotional discounts.

Olthof expects to have their Wyndham Woods model and sales center, which will be a fully-loaded 2,323 square foot 2-story Shorewood with 4 bedrooms and 2 _ baths, open this week. In the meantime, there is an onsite sales trailer where you will find a great deal of information about the community and the American Prairie Collection.

Located adjacent to, or just down the street from some of their most successful communities, the four most recent Olthof communities also include Silverleaf, which is centrally located off of 109th St. just west of US 41 in St. John with plans for 236 new homes; Covington, which is also nestled quietly away from the Crown Point square just south of 231 off of Delaware with plans for 87 new homes; and Village Circle, which is conveniently located just north of US 30 on Great Lakes Dr. in Dyer where these 131 new homes will make this the area’s first to offer the entire Olthof product line.

Since 1961 Olthof Homes has built thousands of homes in communities throughout Northeast Illinois and Northwest Indiana. Their hallmark is designing a wide selection of homes in ideal locations with unique settings, appealing exteriors and open floor plans. These strengths have made them a leader in the local home building market.

While Olthof has earned a reputation for developing outstanding maintenance-free environments, single-family communities such as Wyndham Woods bring the value of their product along with the strengths of their outstanding home warranty and customer care department to another market.
