Bourbonnais Offers Great New Home Value Close To The City

Heritage Meadows of Bourbonnais is a new community of value priced, quality built single family homes by Dunree Homes featuring 3-4 bedrooms and attached garages starting from only $179,000 and located within 60 minutes of downtown Chicago. Using the finest materials and craftsmanship, this community features six outstanding floor plans by talented architects. Two professionally decorated models are open for daily inspection and four more two-story floor plans are available for review. Designs are constructed to the highest standards and with pre-construction prices that run $100,000 (or more) below similar new homes in the Tinley Park area!

Heritage Meadows offers more home for the money and much less congestion for the homeowner. Given the size of these large, beautiful homes, their proximity to downtown Chicago, their countryside setting and especially their low pre-construction prices, Heritage Meadows of Bourbonnais is one of the hottest new home opportunities in the Chicago area and well worth a short drive.

Bourbonnais, one of Chicago's best kept real estate secrets, is about the same commute as many other southern and western suburbs. Founded in 1830, this progressive, growing community maintains a small town atmosphere but is located just 60 miles south of Chicago's Loop along I-57. It is a growing community of over 16,000 residents who avoid the hectic commotion of heavy traffic and instead enjoy an easy-going lifestyle with a wide range of year-round shopping, social, cultural and recreational activities. In a recent article about the growth of Bourbonnais, Mayor Robert Lithum said, "I wouldn't be surprised to see us hit 200 to 250 new homes this year. I would say that within 10 years Bourbonnais will overtake Kankakee for the largest community in Kankakee County." Currently, it serves as the home of the Chicago Bears summer training camp and Olivet Nazarene University.

The Bourbonnais school district has an excellent reputation where students are challenged and inspired to engage the learning environment. Core subjects of reading, writing and math are stressed as well as excellence in science, social sciences, fine arts and physical education. Heritage Meadows residents have access to 17 Bourbonnais parks covering 100 acres of land. Popular attractions include basketball, tennis, picnic shelters, bike trails and access to the Kankakee River.

Heritage Meadows has a list of popular special touches which are normally found only in the finest homes. These features include a full basement, vaulted ceilings, oak doors and trim, ceramic tile in baths and foyers, deluxe casement windows and custom oak kitchen cabinets.

In addition to all the standard features and options, Dunree Homes also has other practical features which improve the value of these outstanding homes like 200 amp electrical service, four telephone and four television outlets, copper plumbing water supply with water shut-offs on all plumbing fixtures, 80% high efficiency furnace, sump pump and drain tile throughout.

These hands-on builders meet personally with home buyers to give attention to their needs and requests, and to make certain each new home meets expectations.
