Outstanding new home values in Peotone can be yours At Westgate Manor<br />

Distinctive Home Builders is building new homes from the low $200s<br />

When it comes to a preferred location,<br />

Peotone is a steadily growing<br />

suburb with a strong infrastructure<br />

and an irresistible small-town charm<br />

with a bright future—which is why Distinctive<br />

Home Builders chose the Will<br />

County village for its newest community<br />

of 38 single-family homes: Westgate<br />

Manor.<br />

“Peotone is a family-friendly village<br />

just south of Chicago and is one<br />

of the best kept secrets among new<br />

home seekers,” said Bryan Nooner,<br />

President of Distinctive Home Builders.<br />

“We expect to attract home shoppers<br />

from northwest Indiana and the<br />

south suburban Chicago marketplace.<br />

We will likely also see buyers from the<br />

Kankakee area because the Peotone<br />

school district is so desirable.”<br />

Several factors attracted Distinctive<br />

Home Builders to this hometown atmosphere<br />

community, not the least of<br />

which was its convenient location between<br />

Interstate 57 and Illinois Route<br />

50 and easy access to I-80. Commuters<br />

will enjoy several nearby train stations<br />

and a mere 35-minute drive to<br />

Chicago.<br />

“It’s a vibrant, growing community<br />

<br />

centers in the west and southwest suburbs<br />

with impressive commercial and<br />

industrial growth that has followed the<br />

residential boom here,” said Nooner.<br />

<br />

combined with lower construction<br />

costs add up to savings when compared<br />

to a similarly-equipped home in<br />

the area,” added Nooner.<br />

homes. Square footages span 1,600 to<br />

for two-story homes.<br />

“Most home shoppers feel there<br />

<br />

you need and what you want in a new<br />

home. With our new premium inclu-<br />

cantly<br />

by including additional features<br />

that our buyers told us were most important<br />

to them,” said Nooner, who<br />

added that “now is the best time to buy,<br />

because you can still take advantage of<br />

preconstruction prices that range from<br />

the low $200s which makes this a ter-<br />

<br />

Other premium standard features<br />

included at Westgate Manor are brick<br />

<br />

basements in most models, ceramic<br />

<br />

baths and foyer; and custom maple<br />

cabinets. Distinctive kitchen cabinets<br />

<br />

ers<br />

with dove tail joints, which is very<br />

rare in the marketplace.<br />

“When you build a new home with<br />

Distinctive, you truly are receiving a<br />

hand crafted home with custom made<br />

cabinets no matter what the price<br />

range,” noted Nooner. This year, Distinctive<br />

Home Builders is celebrating<br />

30 years building thousands of homes<br />

county areas.<br />

Prior to closing, each home undergoes<br />

an industry leading 100-point checklist<br />

to insure the home measures up to<br />

our high quality standards.<br />

portal. “Our customers simply<br />

download our Distinctive HomeBuilders<br />

app and they are in touch with their<br />

new home 24/7 from anywhere in the<br />

world. The app allows our customers<br />

to see the progress of their home and<br />

access their documents at any time,”<br />

Nooner explained. “Our customers really<br />

appreciate the integration of social<br />

media sites directly in our app allowing<br />

them to easily share photos and updates<br />

of their new home with family and<br />

friends,” he concluded.<br />

As a semi-custom builder, Distinctive<br />

Home Builders can modify any of<br />

its standard designs to cater to a customer’s<br />

tastes, which means that moving<br />

walls, adding extra windows or even<br />

extending the garage are all possible.<br />

Nooner added that “All our homes<br />

<br />

built to the new National Energy Code<br />

guidelines. Every home we build has<br />

upgraded wall and ceiling insulation<br />

<br />

<br />

customers take possession of their new<br />

home, we perform a blower door test to<br />

insure that each home passes a set of<br />

very stringent guidelines which insures<br />

that our homes are tight and energy ef-<br />

<br />

means lower gas and electric bills for our<br />

customers each month.”<br />

Peotone was established in 1856 and<br />

community event that concludes with a<br />

Lighted Parade at night. Peotone now<br />
