Grand Opening at Dettmer Homes’ Bramblett Crossing Condominiums

By Kevin Weaks It’s the most affordable way to become a homeowner, but you don’t have to give up any of the luxury at Dettmer Homes’ new Bramblett Crossing Condominiums, which start in the $120s. Plus, qualified first-time homebuyers get a tax credit of up to $8,000.

And there’s one more thing: “We are right at the intersection of Mexico Road and Hwy. K, so location doesn’t get much better,” said Scott Dettmer.

A tax credit of up to $8,000 is available for qualified first-time home buyers purchasing a principal residence on or after Jan. 1, 2009 and before Dec. 1, 2009. The law defines “first-time home buyer” as a buyer who has not owned a principal residence during the three-year period prior to the purchase.

Bramblett Crossing Condominiums, when completed, will consist of 20 buildings with 12 units in each. The low-maintenance, garden-style condominiums are unusually large with a spacious 1,119 square feet of living space that includes two bedrooms, two full baths, a dining area, kitchen with breakfast bar, large living room with porch or patio view and a fullsized laundry room. Upper level condos

the first and second floors have ground level access. The community will have a pool and pool house when completed, and low-maintenance living.

“Currently we have nine inventory units nearing completion and ready for quick occupancy,” said Dettmer.

have vaulted ceilings.

“We have more standard features in these than some builders have in their singlefamily homes,” Dettmer said.

Covered parking is available, and residents will enjoy a community pool and pool house and 8 acres of common ground.

Uniquely in these condominiums, both

Closeout at Locksley Crossing, ‘country charm’ at Falcon Crest

By Kevin Weaks With only four homesites remaining at Locksley Crossing in Lake Saint Louis, Helmut Weber Construction is treating buyers to unprecedented closeout savings. Because these homesites are not built on, buyers still can choose from 12 floor plans that include ranches, two-stories, and story-and-a-half models in a variety of square footages to meet the needs of both down-sizing and expanding families.

Plus, Weber is now offering two stylish inventory homes in time for fall move-in. The two-story Craftsman-style, 3,000-square-foot “Birch” with four bedrooms, bonus room and three-car garage is now priced at just $285,900.

Also just completed is the popular “Willow” a two-story with over 3,500 square feet and priced to sell at just $329,900. Both inventories for sale include fully sodded yards and landscape packages.

To see all the additional features included visit hwcstl.com or the community today. Take Hwy. 40 or Lake Saint Louis Boulevard. to north on Technology Drive to the community. Call 379-2009 or 314-401-3208 to schedule an appointment.

“Country charm” describes the ambience of Falcon Crest in nearby O’Fallon, recently voted one of Money Magazine’s “Best Places to Live.” One of the few locations where you can still find single family homes offering affordability coupled with unprecedented craftsmanship and starting from the upper $170s.

Falcon Crest features a new “country cottage” look that deviates from the typical styles that have saturated the market.

“We’ve brought a new trend in housing to buyers who want exciting new construction in O’Fallon at an affordable price,” said sales manager Sheila Knutson. Living spaces will range from 1,200 to 2,100 square feet and include many upgrade features that are standard in their base price.

A two-story inventory home is available for immediate move in. Priced at just $204,900 it has too many upgrades to list.

This home is priced for fast sale and geared towards first-time homebuyers wanting to take advantage of the tax credit that ends on Dec. 1, 2009.

Take I-70 to north on Hwy. K-M, which changes to Main Street, and then turn west on Civic Park Drive to right on Emge and then stay on Emge as it winds back left into Falcon Crest on the left, and turn onto Sunset Lane.

Call 379-2009.
