Chef-pleasing model at The Reserve
You don't have to be Rachael Ray or Emeril Lagasse to appreciate the expansive island kitchen layout in the Rutherford model at The Reserve of St. Charles. You simply need to want to entertain.
According to 85 percent of Rutherford buyers, the size and space allotted to the kitchen was the main reason they chose the Rutherford over other new home designs at the community. With the holidays around the corner, more buyers are coming in to take a first-hand look at the chef-pleasing Rutherford model.
Over one-third of the home's overall square footage is dedicated to the kitchen and family room. With a large breakfast room and formal dining room with bay window, you can have a sit-down meal for up to two dozen guests.
Located on Route 31 just north of Red Gate Road in St. Charles, The Reserve of St. Charles is an upscale single-family home community offering a collection of richly-detailed ranch and two-story designs ranging from 2,436 to 4,336 square feet and priced from $459,990 to $619,990.
The homes feature six-panel doors and 4-foot-4-inch wide base trim, designer ceramic tile and hardwood flooring, wood burning fireplace in the family room, full extended-pour basements, three-car side-load garages, oak railings, Lennox dual-zoned (per plan) air conditioning and premium landscaping packages. Three professionally-decorated model homes, including a Rutherford, are open daily for touring.
Priced from $574,990, the Rutherford offers more than a fabulous kitchen. The covered front porch leads to a two-story foyer. To the left of the foyer is the living room and adjoining dining room with bay window. To the right is the study and powder room.
The heart of the home consists of the family room and the large island kitchen with breakfast room. The laundry room leads to the three-car, side-load garage.
Upstairs, the master bedroom suite with his-and-hers walk-in closets and private bath includes maple cabinets with Corian vanity tops, ceramic tile surrounds and flooring, and Whirlpool jets in the soaking tub. Three secondary bedrooms all include walk-in closets and are served by a full hall bath. A loft completes the second floor of the Rutherford.
Buyers can choose to add an additional bathroom to the second floor.
A limited number of home sites suitable for English and walkout basements are available.
