The Allerton's kitchen at The Highlands in Lake Geneva flows into a dining area and family room.
The Highlands in Lake Geneva will offer 45 semicustom homes on quarter-acre lots with rolling land, mature woods, a pond and a park.
The Highlands are just a few miles from Lake Geneva's downtown shopping and restaurant district, as well as picturesque Lake Geneva itself.
The Layton, representing one of two available ranch styles, offers 2,154 square feet of living space for $269,900.
With an open, airy layout, a hardwood foyer greets visitors and flows seamlessly into a spacious sitting area topped by a high-angled ceiling, a cozy family area centered around a stone fireplace, an open kitchen with plenty of cabinet and counter space, and a carpeted dining room.
An office or den space provides a private retreat just inside the front door.
The master bedroom and bathroom suite includes a sliding door onto the deck, a separate shower and a double vanity. A hallway past the office area leads to two more bedrooms and another bath.
The two-story Allerton model, base priced at $309,900 for 3,645 square feet of living space, features a three-car garage and an 8-foot etched-glass front door.
The neutral, warm layout includes wall niches for favorite objects, and 9- and 10-foot ceilings throughout.
To the right of the front door, the sitting area flows back into the dining area, where high windows let in natural light. A door leads from the dining room through to the kitchen, with its granite island, top-of-the-line cabinets and appliances, and a sliding door to the backyard.
Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the family room, highlighted by a cozy fireplace and wood mantel.
A special feature is a home theater, complete with two rows of comfortable seating, and stairs with a handrail, with an adjacent bath room.
At the top of the carpeted stairs is a spacious game room/loft, and an enormous master bedroom suite with bath, with not one, but two walk-in closets, an enclosed power room, double vanities, and a separate soaking tub and shower. Beyond are three more bedrooms and another large bath.
Other ranch and two-story models range in size from 1,989 square feet to 3,358 square feet, and are base priced from $265,900 to $294,900.
All homes feature three or four bedrooms, spacious kitchens, breakfast areas, living rooms, family rooms, formal dining rooms, dens, master-bedroom suites and attached two- or three-car garages.
Standard luxury features include custom paint, furniture-quality cabinetry, central air conditioning, gourmet appliance package and basements.
Optional amenities such as fireplaces, three- or four-car garages, skylights, imported ceramic tile, Corian or granite countertops and hardwood flooring are also available.
