Property: Description

Ask any architect what style they most admire... Often the response is the Prairie school of architecture.  Why, because of the broad range of forms and shapes that it can take.  It is one architectural style which allows the greatest freedom for creation. 

To this end, the developers at Prairie Green Homes have taken great pains to landscape the site with naturally occurring vegetation, including spots of prairie grasses and ground covers, are arranged in a seemingly random fashion, but one which allows for the greatest privacy and enhancing various vistas of the property.  The pond, located on Home Site 5, provides a wonderful focal point for many of the properties and has been designed with wetland vegetation, promoting a natural habitat.  Asymmetry is the rule rather than the exception in the landscape design.  As it matures, this landscape will look and feel timeless and enhance the setting of each home.

In addition to the landscape detailing the developers have also on staff talented architects who are true students of the Prairie school of architecture to help create the best overall look of the neighborhood.  We have studied each site to determine the optimum style and placement of each residence.  This is not to say that the idea is to dictate what the homeowner will build.  But by making this study, the developers have created certain expectations for the homeowners’ architect to create a home that is harmonious with the surrounding homes and landscape.

Finally, environmental sensitivity is a major concern of the developers.  Not only creating the landscape that preserves and respects the natural feel of the land but also to create homes which impact the environment as little as possible.  The use of energy efficient construction techniques, use of passive solar measures and other progressive methods are encouraged.  We want to create a neighborhood that will provide lasting value both from an investment perspective as well as beauty and appeal.  We hope that 50 years from now people of this community will appreciate and admire the quality and vision of Prairie Green.
