First Floor Master Plan Unveiled

Buckingham Orchard is a new luxury townhome community by The Dearborn Buckingham Group, Inc. in DuPage County. Conveniently located in northwest Lombard, near I-355 and North Avenue, the community will be home to 34 townhomes. Buckingham Orchard offers three floor plans to choose from, including the totally new Cedar plan. This first floor master bedroom plan has been very well received by townhome buyers. The ease and convenience of single level living has been combined with the flexibility and spaciousness of a townhome.

The first floor of the Cedar plan is open and bright. The foyer opens onto the two-story great room. A high half wall with a wood cap separates the great room from the kitchen. The large open kitchen offers plenty of counter space and a pantry for dry goods. As an option, the breakfast nook can be converted into more cabinets. Off the kitchen is the master suite with a walk in closet and a full bath with a double-bowl vanity and shower. The first floor also has a powder room and laundry room.

Upstairs, the plan has a very generous 19-foot by 19-foot family room, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. Also upstairs is a second bedroom, loft, full bath and storage closet. The plan also includes a full basement and a two car garage.

There are also several variations to the floor plan so individual buyers can tailor the design to their needs and style of living. These include adding a second master suite on the second floor, or even a third master suite on the second floor. There is also an option to finish a portion of the basement, bringing the total square footage of the townhome to over 2,200.

Buckingham Orchard is just minutes from the employment centers of Oak Brook and Schaumburg and less than 30 minutes to O'Hare Airport. Residents will enjoy a wide variety of park and recreational amenities and premier shopping and dining are also only minutes away.

The townhomes range in size from 1,650 square feet to 1,790 square feet and include high level finishes. Some important inclusions are basements, air-conditioning; two-car garages; two and one-half baths; two to four bedrooms; nine-foot first floor ceilings; volume ceilings (per plan); brick exterior accents; ceramic tile flooring in the foyer, and much more. Depending on the location some of the townhomes have look-out style basements, bringing more natural light into the lower level.

Pre-grand opening sales are being conducted on the site at 615 West Pleasant Lane in Lombard. Prices start at $347,900. The sales office is open Friday through Tuesday, from noon to 5 p.m.; and by appointment. Closed on Tuesday and Wednesday. The phone number is (630) 261-9404. (All prices are subject to change without notice.)
