First Five VIP Purchasers Save Up to $80,000 During Westleigh Farm Model Grand Opening
- A 'Great Gatsby' themed celebration, featuring a variety of refreshments, marks the much-anticipated luxury ranch model Grand Opening at Westleigh Farm in Lake Forest, where the first five VIP purchasers can save with rewards up to $80,000.
Being developed by North Shore Builders, the 47-acre community is on the former King Country Estate, said to be the inspiration for F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, 'The Great Gatsby'. More than half of the lush grounds are dedicated open space with ponds, orchards, meadows and walking paths. Additional elite neighborhood elements include a David Adler-designed clubhouse and a Howard Van Doren Shaw-designed amenity building that creates the allure of a Country Estate entry. The pristine enclave will consist of 26 maintenance-free single-family homes priced from $1.1 million and eight homesites for design/build custom homes.
"The finishing touches are underway and we are excited for buyers to tour the model and see, firsthand, the luxury, custom craftsmanship and picturesque surroundings that await them at Westleigh Farm," said Joseph Balistreri, project manager for North Shore Builders. "Our VIP interest list has been growing and as a thank you for buyer enthusiasm we are offering special rewards of up to $80,000 to our first five purchasers."
These initial buyers can create their own customization reward by choosing from several incentives such as a free three-car side-load garage, savings of up to 50% on a premium homesite or up to 50% of interior design selections up to $25,000.
"The majority of interest to date has come from empty-nesters in Lake Forest and the surrounding North Shore who want to streamline their lifestyle without sacrificing luxury," Balistreri continued. "These buyers want to remain, at least part of the year, in this highly-desirable area close to friends, family, the Chicago lakefront and all that the North Shore has to offer."
The 4,700-square-foot model home with three bedrooms and a study, 3 ½ baths, three-car side-load garage and finished lookout basement, features a French Eclectic exterior consisting of stucco and stone accented by a steep roof.
A covered porch and inviting foyer provide a warm welcome to the model and leads to the open concept living area with upgraded Estate Chef's kitchen boasting Viking appliances, ceiling-high Amish handcrafted cabinets, island/breakfast bar and a breakfast sun room. This area is open to the spacious great room with fireplace and the large covered deck extends the living area to outdoor beauty overlooking an orchard. Nine-inch wide plank wood floors accent the living area, formal dining room and study (or fourth bedroom).
The owner's suite, with a private covered screened-in deck, includes a spectacular walk-in closet and opulent bath with double vanities plus a deluxe shower and separate soaking tub. The home also features a main-floor laundry and owners' entry with closets and bench as well as access to the three-car side-load garage.
The lookout lower level is an entertaining paradise with a large recreation room highlighted by a full bar and island with appliances. An exercise room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a cigar room with paneled walls and vent, two additional bedrooms and a full bath make this area ideal for gatherings of any size as well overnight guests.
This distinctive home also includes integrated Smart home technology, Anderson windows and doors, Lennox high-efficiency furnaces and more.
In addition to the model, buyers may choose from a collection of ranch designs ranging from 3,523 to over 4,497 square feet with finished basements, and a choice of exteriors include The Colonial Revival, Farmhouse Revival, Shingle Cottage and French Eclectic. Homesites suitable for walkout and lookout basements are available.
