CASTLEWOOD ESTATES DEVELOPMENT CASTLEWOOD ESTATES • PROJECT LOCATION: One block northeast of the intersection of Archer Avenue and 127th Street. DEVELOPERS:. 0 & R Wolf, Inc.- owned by - Gregory & Renee Wolf BUILDERS: Energy Craft Homes, Inc.- owned by - Gregory & Renee Wolf • PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: The property consists of 19.5 acres to the north and east of the mansion currently owned by the Ateitis Foundation. There are approximately 7.5 acres of mature trees, 11 acres of meadows and farmland, and a one acre spring fed pond on the property. PROJECT GOALS: It is the developers intention that this project be designed in harmony with the natural setting of the area and to preserve and/or improve the, existing features of its natural beauty. We will be introducing a very high quality, medium to high priced development, with semi custom homes, revolving around a central theme, Old World European Styling and Craftsmanship. Our goal is to provide all the traditional grace and beauty of the past, yet respond to todays lifestyles; open, bright, livable. We feel that this blending of .the past and present is the type of residential design especially suited to the Lemont area. • The obvious success of Equestrian Estates, Crystal Tree and other "high end developments" demonstrates a desire for high quality luxury homes in Lemont. PHASE DESCRIPTION: We will construct this project in 3 phases: 1. Commercial 2. Residential 3. P.U.D. 1 PHASE ONE: PHASE TWO: PHASE THREE: 1 • Commercial; we will begin with the development of the 90,000 sq ft parcel. fronting Archer Avenue. This initial phase will include construction of an 8,000 sq ft office building and a neighborhood park. Both will border on the existing one acre spring fed pond. Initial plans call for keeping nearly 75% of the mature oaks and pines on this site. On the park side of the pond, we will add a variety of trees, shrubs and flowers, as well as install park benches, picnic tables and possibly, a gazebo. We have several reasons for beginning the project with the commercial phase: 1. Immediate accessibility via Archer Avenue 2. Immediate visi.bilty and marketing of the project, enabling us to establish the quality and Old World theme from the beginning. 3. Allows us to predetermine the market regarding the P.U.D. phase of the project. Single Family Residential- density 1.94 per acre; this phase of single family homes will consist of 15 lots ranging in size from 13,000 to 19,800 sq ft. There are nine basic plans to choose from. Each with a wide variety of options and accessories available to customize every home. Besides the extensive perimeter landscaping by the developer, every home /lot sale will require a minimum landscape package that will include grass, trees and shrubbery. P.U.D. - density 2.63 per acre; it is our intention that this phase be developed as a combined single family detached, single family attached, and another neighborhood park. This phase consists of approx. 6.75 acres. The south half of the phase is wooded and overlooks the 5 acre wooded estate and mansion owned by the Atei1i.s Foundation. It is on this portion that we propose single family attached housing, 6 to 8 duplex homes. The north portion will consist of 6 to 9 single family homes. The park will be located at the west entrance of Castlewood Estates surrounding the professionally designed and landscaped retention pond. A P.U.D. zoning will allow for greater flexibility i. n determining the actual number of detached and attached homes as well as the size of the park. The actual numbers will be established by consumer desire; determined by pre - construction sales. ►.__.411 qua wlujwuaswwurl snia: l'" -' r■■■t J ��s _____.1 iii: RBI :.: �� ■■111 IIlilillM UIMi1111 NY1111 IUIIMM !
