Brookside Meadows Opens with Special Pricing
and All New Designs for 2009

It’s unusual for the opening of a new development to receive as much attention as the long-awaited inauguration of Brookside Meadows, Crana Homes’ new residential community in Tinley Park. But, these days it has become more important than ever for people seeking new homes to invest in solid craftsmanship that will stand the test of time. Brookside Meadows is doing just that with Crana Homes making pre-construction pricing and special financing available for a limited time on exciting new 2009, quality-built, single-family attached home designs.

Brookside Glen opened in 1996 and was complete in 10 years, an incredible six years ahead of schedule. Today Brookside Glen families are not only delighted with their homes, but the investment potential of their homes has proved to be astounding - some of the first home buyers have seen their homes rise an unprecedented $150,000 or more in value. Some Crana homes have proven to be a great investment with up to 10 to 15% annual increase in value!

Because the foundational principles are the same, that same result is expected for Brookside Meadows. Crana Homes has a distinguished reputation with a long history of fine workmanship and the kind of customer service commitment that is best described as personal attention from professionals who care to see people happy in their homes. Frank Bradley, President of Crana Homes, prides himself in merging Old World craftsmanship from his Master Carpenter legacy with the current trends and contemporary styles which are bound to appreciate over time. He is bringing this same personal philosophy to Brookside Meadows - a philosophy of listening closely to homeowners and personally investing himself in seeing their dreams realized.

Brookside Meadows is located in Tinley Park, just minutes from the Metra commuter train station, near the major highways I-80, I-57, and I-355.The community is located just one block east ofLaGrange Road on LaPorte Road. There is more than a weekend-full of shopping nearby, as well as a wide variety of restaurants, cafes and diners.

The strength of Brookside Meadows is in the connectedness to the greater Chicagoland community combined with the peacefulness of a friendly
neighborhood locale.

The development itself sits in a secluded, quiet residential area, enjoys Lake Michigan water and has a top-rated school district. Crana Homes wants to help residents spend more time enjoying their new homes, so there is no exterior maintenance - grass is cut and snow is promptly plowed soon after it falls.

Brookside Meadows will have 100 single family attached homes and 21 single family homes. New model single family attached homes are ready for touring. These homes represent a great value and include two car garage, full basements, oak doors, oak cabinets and ceramic tile. The optional lookout/walkout basement is another feature that homeowners appreciate. The homes also have superb insulation and energy-conscious 'green features.' The Sales Center is open where home-seekers can sit with a representative to discuss the development of their new home.

The “Glenvar” joins the group of new designs for 2009. It is one of the four single-family attached home styles available in Brookside Meadows. With a spacious loft overlooking a great room and optional fireplace, this two or three bedroom split level home is stylish and comfortably elegant. The great room flows into an open kitchen with plentiful counter and cabinet space. The master suite features an optional tray ceiling and with a chic master bathroom available with a spa-worthy whirlpool tub. The Glenvar is one of many reasons why the opening of Brookside Meadows is welcome sight for new home buyers!
