FLAHERTY BUILDERS OFFERS
SELECTION OF RANCH HOMES AT SUTTON DALE IN FRANKFORT
FRANKFORT, IL, June 30, 2006-- To satisfy families who are
rediscovering the lifestyle and architectural benefits to be
found in ranch style homes, Flaherty Builders offers several
large ranch homes within its luxury Frankfort community,
Sutton Dale. Located on the west side of town along Nebraska
Street, these homes, which consolidate all primary living
space into a stair-free environment, provide 2,700 to 2,750
square feet of space and are base priced from $386,900 to
well over $414,900 (prices subject to change). Flaherty is
also willing to build custom ranches per the homeowner’s
request.
"We believe ranches are gaining in popularity because curb
appeal has been considerably enhanced, the stair-free
lifestyle offered within is extremely convenient and buyers
appreciate the huge basements that can be finished as game
rooms, additional bedrooms, workout rooms and more,” said
Mike Flaherty, president/founder of Flaherty Construction.
"Ranches also allow architects the freedom to put volume or
dramatic vaulted ceilings in virtually every room because
they do not have to worry about impacting rooms on the
second floor."
The 2,750 square-foot Tegan model with three-car garage is
base priced (with standard homesite) at $414,900 and
showcases the latest design trends found in today’s highly
desirable ranches. Curb appeal is of utmost importance for
today’s homebuyers, and Flaherty’s Tegan model excels in
this regard. Brick covers the entire home and a dramatic
roofline soars to new heights. A variety of gables, hips and
valleys provide all the ingredients necessary to create a
stunning exterior.
Due to the impressive roof pitches found on the Tegan, the
interior ceilings of the home are equally impressive.
Without a second floor in these homes to interfere, the
roof’s design directly impacts the interior of the home. The
volume in the roof can be translated into a wide variety of
custom ceilings inside the home. For example, the Tegan
features a vaulted ceiling in the great room, kitchen and
foyer, multi-level tray ceiling in the master bedroom and
optional in the dining room, and nine-foot flat ceilings
throughout the rest of the home. Windows also play a major
roll in dressing up the exterior of the Tegan. “The days are
long gone when the front windows of a ranch consisted of a
picture window in the living room and two tiny windows in
the bedrooms,” said Flaherty. “All of our ranches feature
dramatic windows that are usually toped with striking
transom windows.” Windows do more than dress up the exterior
of the Tegan, they also let an abundance of natural light
into the home and provide spectacular window scapes in
dining room, great room, den, master bedroom and breakfast
room.
The layouts of ranches have also evolved over the years to
meet different lifestyles. To maximize space usage, the
unused living room has been removed from the Tegan and the
space has been incorporated into the family room to create
an enormous great room. The great room has a vaulted
ceiling, fireplace and attractive optional skylights.
Amenities galore can be found throughout the Tegan model.
Standard amenities include a half basement with 8-foot
ceilings, insulated vinyl clad casement windows, oak trim &
doors, furniture-quality oak cabinets, gas range,
dishwasher, food disposal, dishwasher, ceramic floor and
wall tile in baths, whirlpool tub in master bath, three-car
garage, central air conditioning and oak flooring in
foyer/kitchen/dinette.
Within Sutton Dale, Flaherty Construction offers homebuyers
the opportunity to extensively modify any available floor
plan. Homes can be expanded, additional volume ceilings can
be incorporated (per plan), and some interior and exterior
walls can be relocated. If the homebuyer desires it, it can
be done in Suttondale. Flaherty Construction is eager to
make these alterations because the company has more than 30
years of experience in the homebuilding industry. Flaherty
will also build a custom home from a homeowner’s set of
approved blueprints.
In addition to ranch homes, Flaherty also offers a variety
of two-story homes that provide 2,850 to 4,000 square feet
of customizable living space. With homesites, two-story
homebuyers can expect to pay $392,900 to over $499,900.
Custom two-story homes offering more than 4,000 square feet
of living space can be constructed by Flaherty as well, per
homeowner’s request.
All of the homesites include city sewer and water and are
within the excellent grade school district of Frankfort and
the highly acclaimed Lincoln Way East High School district.
In addition, the community is only minutes from downtown
Frankfort, Mokena or New Lenox and near transportation
arteries Interstates 80 & 57 and Route 45. Chicago commuters
will be pleased to know that a Metra train station is less
than 3 miles away. For relaxation a variety of golf courses
and parks are nearby, and two riverboat casinos are at hand.
