Enduring Value Helps Propel Sales at Cranberry Hill Estates
SHELTON, CT – September 14, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — The enduring appeal of classic Colonial style homes designed for contemporary, maintenance-free living has helped spur continued strong demand at Shelton’s Cranberry Hill Estates.
The 40 single family homes in a detached condominium community offer a unique mix of pragmatic, energy-efficient features combined with numerous luxurious amenities included as standard features.
“Despite the generally soft Connecticut real estate market and the typically weak demand in summer, Cranberry Hill continues to capture homeowners’ interest,” said Cranberry Hill builder Shaun Nettleton. “We’ve sold so many homes that we have delivery dates leading right into November, but there are still some homes available now that could be ready for the holidays,” he added.
There is just one home left ̶ a Deerfield style — in Phase 1 of construction. As an added incentive, the builders have included $10,000 worth of upgrades at no cost, including an oversized outdoor deck, custom cherry kitchen cabinets and a fieldstone fireplace. At 2,900 square feet, the Deerfield is the largest model available at Cranberry Hill.
The 12 homes in Phase 2 of construction continue to sell briskly. Phase 2 is about 50% sold out. An Avon style home is available and ready for immediate occupancy.
“We had a good August,” Nettleton noted. “It’s usually a quiet month for sales but we were able to sell two more homes, so we’re very encouraged as we approach the fall market.”
Nettleton said the third and final phase of construction has moved forward ahead of schedule.
It’s no wonder that visitors are wowed by what they see. Each Cranberry Hill home feature state-of-the-art kitchens, walk-in master closets, gas fireplaces and oak floors, along with generous use of high-end materials like marble, stainless steel and custom paneling. Cranberry Hill homes offer energy-efficient gas heating, two-zone central air conditioning, and maintenance-free exteriors with a front porch. There are four different floor plans ranging in size from 2,000 to 2,900 square feet.
The community is being built by father-and-son team Tom and Shaun Nettleton.
