More than merely promising a high-quality home with an assortment of compelling features, the Manchester Cove townhomes deliver the goods. The two-bedroom, two-bath ranch townhomes, tucked inside the charming quaintness of Mokena’s 130-year-old village, leave nothing to want.
Manchester Cove’s 32 townhomes feature all-brick construction and full basements to go along with General Electric appliances (including laundry), large master bedroom suites, and oak doors, trim, and cabinetry. Recently, Hartz Homes introduced new pricing for Manchester Cove’s townhomes. With prices starting at $215,900, Hartz Homes has paired the unrivaled prices with its 50 years as one of Chicagoland’s most reputable homebuilders.
“We believe we’ve created a community here that meets homebuyers’ desires for value, craftsmanship, and quality of life,” said Phil Hartz of Hartz Homes. “With our starting price of $215,900, we are among the best bang-for-the-buck values in the entire Chicago area and hit on price points outdistancing even resale townhomes on the market.”
“The climate for homebuyers now is as good as it has ever been,” Hartz Homes divisional sales manager Michelle Koss said, reminding as well of today’s historically low interest rates. “To think that qualified first-time buyers, for instance, can get a new townhome in Mokena in the low $200,000s is a pretty amazing deal in 2010.”
Manchester Cove buyers select from one of two townhome models, each featuring an open floor plan and nine-foot ceilings: the 1,350-square foot, middle-unit Kenmore and the end-unit Lockwood, a spacious model consuming 1,450 square feet. In addition to full basements, all townhomes include an attached two-car garage, nine-foot ceilings, and central air. Select units have cathedral ceilings.
“These two townhome designs provide a spacious interior inside a solid brick exterior,” Koss said. “We believe our homeowners want a home that speaks to quality and value and we’ve provided just that.”
The Manchester Cove townhome community rests inside a secluded, private nook spotted one mile west of Mokena’s historic and revitalized downtown. In a sign of the village’s charismatic atmosphere, Mokena’s downtown hosts a French Market each Saturday morning from early spring to late fall.
One of the Southland’s most sought-after communities, Manchester Cove residents in Mokena benefit from a plethora of other amenities, including swift access to Interstate 80, Mokena’s Metra commuter rail station, Chicago water, and the award-winning Lincoln-Way High School district.
“Mokena remains one of the most appealing towns in the Southland and we’re thrilled to have such high-quality and valued townhomes to offer in a community that residents are proud to call their own,” Koss said.
Manchester Cove is located on 191st Street approximately one mile west of LaGrange Road. The Manchester Cove sales office, housed at 19210 S. 104th Avenue, and fully decorated townhome models are open Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday from 10am to 5pm and Sunday from 11am to 5pm.
