At Shadow Hill in Elgin, national home builder, Ryland Homes, has teamed up with award-winning decorator, Designworks of Colorado, to bring shoppers three spectacular model homes.

According to Robert Meyn, VP of sales and marketing for Ryland Homes, the newly opened models are popular for their themed children’s rooms, including one with a “Finding Nemo” mural. “For the actual home buyers,” Meyn says, “the big draw has been the open floor plans with big kitchens and family rooms, as well as the sensible pricing.”

The models are part of Ryland’s Hartford collection, which consists of seven two-story homes ranging from 2,420 to 3,805 square feet in size with four bedrooms, 2 1⁄2 baths, elegant two-story foyers and living rooms in most plans, lofts per plan, partial basements and attached three-car garages.

“I can’t stress enough how impressed our buyers are with the openness of these floor plans,” Meyn says. “Two-story foyers, lofts, dual-access staircases and large island kitchens open to spacious family rooms are what buyers can expect to see when touring these models.” The three models include The Huntington, The Manchester and The Oxford.

Shadow Hill residents will enjoy a quiet, country setting, minutes from services and conveniences. I-90 is within 10 minutes of Shadow Hill, and local shopping can be found along Randall Road. The community is located at the intersection of Nesler and South Street in Elgin. For more information, call 847. 697.2999, or visit www.ryland.com.
