About This Home

New Construction Home in Carefree Villas located in the Niles School District. This 1,607 square foot ranch delivers the simplicity of single-level living with a layout that feels intentional and well balanced. Just off the entry, a front bedroom offers flexibility for guests or a quiet workspace, followed by a generously sized full bath and a second bedroom tucked nearby. The primary suite is thoughtfully positioned at the rear of the home, creating separation and privacy, and includes its own bath. The central living area brings everything together with a vaulted great room that adds volume and light to the space. The kitchen makes a statement with a 48-inch island and pendant lighting, offering ample prep space and casual seating. The kitchen is also outfitted with quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, and a complete stainless steel appliance package with refrigerator. A peninsula connects the kitchen to a spacious dining nook large enough to accommodate a full size table, allowing the spaces to feel open yet defined. Storage is abundant throughout, keeping everyday essentials within easy reach. The mudroom serves as a practical drop zone with built-in storage opportunities and direct access to the garage and laundry area with washer and dryer included. Just off the dining nook, a 10x10 patio extends the living space outdoors and includes stairs to the backyard, making it easy to enjoy outdoor dining, relaxing evenings, or casual gatherings. RESNET energy smart construction will save an estimated $1,857 annually. Actual savings may vary; see HERS Rating Certificate and Energy Smart Flyer for details. Home includes a 10-year structural warranty, offering lasting peace of mind.
