The Chateaux: Red Seal Homes’s smaller single-family home plan

In a recent Daily Herald article...

Red Seal Homes has unveiled a smaller single-family home plan — the Chateaux, available in both ranch and two-story designs — at its Provenance community of single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes in the Northbrook area of Cook County, Ill.

“The Chateaux homes at Provenance offer the privacy of a single-family home yet a slightly smaller footprint that makes them ideal for young families moving up from an apartment or townhome, or empty nesters looking to rightsize,” said Brian Hoffman, an executive with Red Seal Homes. “Also, because they’re maintenance-free, Chateaux homes allow buyers to enjoy the advantages of single-family living without needing to spend unnecessary time on upkeep.”

Provenance offers home office solutions in your new home, perfect for telecommuters.

At Provenance, we are finding more of our buyers asking for telecommuting options — and we are able to deliver to that need.

(Original article was written by Jeffrey Steele for Forbes.com, found here).

Excerpt:

If it seems more people you know are telecommuting, it’s not your imagination. Almost three percent of the U.S. workforce, or approximately four million workers, spend at least half their work hours working from home. Regular remote work soared 115 percent from 2005 to 2015, a clip 10 times that of the workforce in general. Employers save more than $11,000 yearly for every half-time remote worker in their employ. Those savings total $44 billion across the entire existing population of at-home workers.

Little wonder Builder Magazine found a dedicated home office buyers’ favorite choice of bonus rooms. The increasing amount of work undertaken from home is starting to reshape how builders lay out rooms, and impacting how real estate agents market homes with dedicated office space.

Flexible floor plans

At Provenance, a Northbrook, Ill. master-planned community, home builder Red Seal Homes grants buyers of the community’s single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes a choice of home office selections. Its single-family home option, The Estates, features a first-floor office or study, Its Terrace townhome option delivers an unfinished basement that buyers can transform into a home office.

Telecommuting in Chicago is becoming a great option with new homes allowing for dedicated home offices.

Brian Hoffman, Red Seal Homes, 3rd-Generation Owner

“Many Provenance buyers work from home at least several times weekly, ranking dedicated home offices high on their must-haves lists, says Red Seal Homes’ executive Brian Hoffman. “Likewise, buyers of our townhomes can easily convert their loft or third-bedroom space to an office, if they don’t want to finish their basement.”

Charlotte Park project underway in Nashville

A new Charlotte Park project on the edge of The Nations, called 2AVES, is now underway.

(Originally written by Staff Reports at Nashville Post).

Chicago-based Red Seal Homes announced this week site work is underway related to a townhome project in Charlotte Park, its first development in Nashville. Called 2AVES, the residences will be located at Vernon and James avenues just west of The Nations. According to a release, 2AVES will offer 58 two- and three-bedroom, semi-custom townhomes that can be finished according to buyers’ preferences.

The townhomes (pictured) will be priced starting at $315,000 and span 1,350 to 2,050 square feet with a choice of six floor plans. Each home will have an attached two-car garage.

Sales for 2AVES will begin in August, with move-ins anticipated for March 2019.

Nashville-based Centric Architect is handling design. “Over the past few years, we’ve realized the significant growth of the Nashville market and see a prime opportunity to fill an offering gap in Music City real estate,” Todd Fishbein, third-generation owner at Red Seal Homes, said in the release. “We’re bringing a service to the table not currently available in Nashville — the ability for buyers in our price point to put their own unique stamps on their new homes. Built with quality and efficiency in mind, rather than speed, our homes are made to last generations and mold to needs across the board — just as our company has.”

New Nashville Townhomes in The Nations near Centennial Boulevard

Red Seal Homes is excited to plan new townhomes to be located in The Nations near Centennial Boulevard in Nashville.

(Townhomes eyed for The Nations, originally written by Staff Reports at Nashville Post).

A multi-building townhome project is being eyed for a site in The Nations, with the prospective developer to go before the Metro Planning Commission in January to seek a rezoning to accommodate the effort.

Chicago-area-based Red Seal Development (founded 85 years ago) would serve as developer. A spring 2018 groundbreaking is eyed on the multi-parcel site, which has addresses of 1003, 1011, 1013 and 1013B 44th Ave. N. The collective 1.86 acres sit about one block south of Centennial Boulevard.

RSD has the West Nashville property under contract with owner Sudekum Capital LLC. American Towel & Rental Service operates from the 1003 parcel.

Todd Fishbein, RSD co-owner with Brian Hoffman, said the project’s working name is 44th Avenue Townhomes. The project would yield 38 townhomes in eight buildings. Nine of the residences would be designated as workforce housing units.

RSD will go before the commission on Thursday, Jan. 11, to request specific plan zoning. Nashville-based Centric Architect is handling design. A rendering has not yet been finalized.

Catalyst Design Group, also locally based, is handling land planning and engineering. “We’re excited and proud to be part of Nashville’s growth,” Fishbein said. “We look forward to building special Red Seal communities as the larger Nashville community grows.”

First move-ins at Provenance

In a recent article published at ChicagoTribune.com, Red Seal Homes celebrates first move-ins at Provenance, our own Brian Hoffman, third generation owner of Red Seal Homes, spoke about the newest development within the Red Seal Homes development, Provenance—the community’s first residents are moving into their new homes! Here’s an excerpt from their story:

Our residents moving in at Provenance over the next several months perfectly illustrate how our range of housing styles and floor plans appeal to a really diverse cross section of buyers,” says Hoffman. “For example, our first residents to take occupancy are downsizers who chose a single-family ranch home for this stage of their lives. But we’ve also sold a number of The Estates single-family homes to families at various stages, from those with young children up to households with high-school-age kids. —Brian Hoffman
