ILLINOIS & WISCONSIN– September 25, 2024 –– With holiday entertaining and the promise of visiting friends and family just around the corner, Shodeen Homes is offering home buyers the opportunity to be settled into a new home for the holidays at communities in Illinois and Wisconsin.
“Homeowners tend to reassess their lifestyle needs prior to the holidays,” said Jaynelle Then, Sales Director for Shodeen Homes. “Motivated by large gatherings, returning college-aged children and visiting guests, buyers look to open-concept home designs with large kitchens rooms to family rooms, extra bedrooms and full basements to accommodate their entertaining needs.”
Shodeen Homes, a family-owned new home builder for more than 60 years, offers low-maintenance Village homes and traditional ranch and two-story designs for buyers who are ready to move now. These homes include today’s top design trends such as island kitchens with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, 9-foot first-floor ceilings, family rooms with fireplaces, luxury vinyl plank flooring, full basements and more.
According to Then, home benefits transcend design elements by including industry-leading, energy-efficient features that save buyers money, particularly during cold, winter months.
“Shodeen goes beyond industry standards to include energy-efficient features such as a house wrap air infiltration barrier system, 92% energy efficient forced air gas furnace, high-efficiency central air conditioning, Energy Star Power 50-gallon hot water heater and insulated sidewall, vapor barrier, attic and exterior basement walls,” Then said. “In addition, every Shodeen home is backed by a 1- 5- and 10-year warranty, giving buyers peace-of-mind on their new home purchase.”
