NEW BUCKINGHAM COURTE LUXURY TOWNHOME NEIGHBORHOOD NOW OPEN FOR V.I.P. PREVIEWS IN DES PLAINES
Low Maintenance Townhome Community By The Dearborn-Buckingham Group Offers Outstanding Value With Close-In Location

Des Plaines, IL - (June 20, 2008) - The Dearborn-Buckingham Group has announced that previews have begun at Buckingham Courte, its newest low maintenance townhome neighborhood conveniently located in Des Plaines. Hot on the heels of the Dearborn-Buckingham Group's successful Buckingham Pointe townhome community in Des Plaines, Buckingham Courte offers buyers a true luxury townhome in a highly convenient location within this well established suburb. Community previews can be scheduled by calling 1-847-881-2560. Buckingham Courte is conveniently located on Touhy Avenue, within minutes to downtown Des Plaines. The community has been planned for just 18 premium-quality townhomes loaded with deluxe amenities. Special V.I.P. preview pricing is being offered in the low $300s for a limited time only. The first deliveries are scheduled for spring of 2009.

"Buckingham Courte will be another success story for us in Des Plaines, a community where townhome buyers have recognized our high quality construction, strong value and great locations," said Christopher Coleman, president of The Dearborn-Buckingham Group. "At Buckingham Courte, we will be offering our now famous high level of included features that buyers have found irresistible. We are now scheduling previews of this neighborhood, where shoppers can learn more about our special savings during our introductory phase."

The Dearborn-Buckingham Group has five different floor plans available at Buckingham Courte, both attractive two-story townhomes sized at approximately 1,500 to 1,900 square feet. The homes feature two or four bedrooms, lofts (which can be converted into an additional bedroom), 2-1/2 baths, luxury master suites with walk-in closets and private baths, full basements, central air conditioning and two-car attached garages.

As a very intimate neighborhood, Buckingham Courte features townhomes in clusters of just four and five units each, with easy access directly off of Touhy Avenue. The townhomes feature detailed architectural touches such as gable-end rooflines, brick trim on the first floor, decorative columns, shutters and bay windows, just to name a few.

The homes will be situated in a professionally landscaped block long cul-de-sac layout with a very private, enclave-like feeling, while still being just minutes away from downtown Des Plaines.

"Aside from the intimate setting at Buckingham Courte, our layouts offer a level of flexibility that townhome buyers usually don't expect to find at this price point," Coleman said. "We include many desirable features, such as 9' first floor ceilings, two-story ceilings in select rooms and hardwood or ceramic tile entry foyers that help set these townhomes apart from the crowd. Our floor plans have also been designed to be flexible, with options that create super-sized master suites, oversized closets, tech space or additional bedrooms."

Each townhome at Buckingham Courte also includes classic white painted Colonist six panel doors and trim, wall-to-wall carpeting and designer-selected light fixtures. Comfort and convenience features are central air conditioning, large 50-gallon hot water heaters and efficient gas forced-air heating.

One of the most spectacular features at Buckingham Courte are the full basements that come standard with each home. The Dearborn-Buckingham Group even offers a finished basement option to create even more living area inside these homes.

A long list of deluxe options can also be added to each plan at Buckingham Courte to create a home that meets the needs of every buyer. Some of the options include wood burning or direct-vent fireplaces, skylights, wood stair rails, a selection of flooring upgrades that include hardwood and ceramic tile, solid surface countertops and concrete patios or wooden decks.

The Buckingham Courte neighborhood highlights a close-in location perfect for buyers who work in the city or suburbs. The community is minutes from Interstates 90, 94 and 294, for quick connections to O'Hare, the surrounding suburbs or downtown Chicago. Metra train service and the CTA Blue Line are minutes away in downtown Des Plaines, with Pace suburban bus service also making stops throughout the area.

"Buckingham Courte represents a fantastic opportunity for townhome buyers to purchase a beautifully appointed home in a location that offers the ultimate in convenience and accessibility. With only 18 homes in this entire neighborhood, we expect demand to be high, so I urge shoppers to set up their preview appointments quickly," Coleman said.
