Move in to Bryn Mawr this month
At Bryn Mawr in Crystal Lake, four executive-style homes are ready for October delivery. Priced from the $380,000s, the four homes range up to 3,779 square feet in size with three-car side-load garages and full basements.
"Upscale homes of this magnitude generally are nine to twelve months in the making, but buyers of these homes can enjoy an estate-style home within thirty days.'' Robert Meyn, vice president of sales and marketing for Ryland Homes, the developer.
Located on Route 176 just east of Route 47 and less than a half mile from Crystal Lakes' 309-acre Lippold Park, Bryn Mawr will include 300 single-family homes on home sites measuring up to ½-acre in size. Ten sprawling two-story home designs are offered ranging from 2,807 to 4,235 square feet in size with homes currently priced from $363,990 to $449,990. Three professionally-decorated model homes are open daily for touring.
Boasting a pristine environment, homes will benefit from curving streetscapes, 50-foot setbacks and acres of open space. A limited number of home sites suitable for English basements are available.
"The four homes for October delivery represent two of our most desired floor plans," Meyn said. "Two South Hill and two Rutherford designs are available with numerous upgraded features such as oak railings, wood burning fireplaces, hardwood flooring, stainless-steel appliances and more. And, each of these homes is offered at a terrific savings."
The two home plans available for October delivery include:
• The South Hill. A 3,025-square-foot two-story plan with an elegant two-story foyer that leads to the formal living room to the left and formal dining room to the right. The heart of the home consists of the spectacular two-story family room which is open to the island kitchen and breakfast room. The study, an ideal in-home office, is also to the rear of the home as is a powder room and spacious utility' room.
Upstairs, the master suite defines elegance with his-and-hers walk-in closets as well as a designer luxury bath that features a double-bowl vanity, corner soaking tub and separate shower. Three nicely-sized secondary bedrooms are served by a full hall bath.
One of two South Hill homes available this October is at 394 Kay Street and priced at $439,990 while the other is located at 403 Helen Street and is priced at $405,990.
• The Rutherford: A 3,768-square-foot home that includes a charming covered front porch which leads inside to the spectacular two-story foyer. Once inside, the formal living room is open to the formal dining room providing unending entertainment options. The private study is at the front of the home while the rear of the home consists solely of the large family room, breakfast room and kitchen with oversized island. A powder room, laundry room and access to the three-car side-load garage are also found on the first floor of the Rutherford.
Upstairs, the master suite has a private bath, featuring a corner soaking tub and separate shower, as well as his-and-hers walk-in closets. Three generously-sized secondary bedrooms each include a walk-in closet and are served by a large hall bath with soaking tub and separate shower.
