Gladstone Homes Gives Homebuyers Green to Go Green

For a limited time, June 28 through July 20, Premiere Series and Signature Series homebuyers at Gladstone's Chatham Square in Plainfield, Ill., will receive a 2009 Toyota Prius, a $2,000 gas card, $75,000 in free options and up to 5 years of utility bills paid.

Plainfield, IL, June 26, 2008 --(PR.com)-- What does “green” mean to you? In current times, the first thought of many is protecting the environment. Others might think of cash. In traffic, of course, green means go. And then there’s being green with envy.

Gladstone Homes is rolling all of those meanings into its “Going, Going, Green” event, June 28 to July 20 at Chatham Square in Plainfield. Homebuyers who go to Chatham Square and purchase a single-family Premiere Series or Signature Series home during the event will receive an environmentally friendly 2009 Toyota Prius hybrid automobile and, to keep some extra green in their pockets, homebuyers also will receive a gasoline card valued at $2,000. This translates to 2 years’ worth of gasoline based on Prius’ average annual fuel cost calculated by the U.S. Dept. of Energy.

In addition, Gladstone is offering $75,000 in free energy-efficient and luxury options, and will pay the utility bills for the new homes for up to five years.

“Our homes at Chatham Square already offer whole-house wrap, insulated windows, high-efficiency furnaces and water heaters, all which help to optimize energy use,” said General Sales Manager Katie Minott. “But with just a portion of the $75,000 in free options, a family could choose a number of selections to further their energy and dollar savings, and use the rest to create the home of their dreams.”

In the 3,045 square-foot Megstone, a newly released Signature Series home design base-priced at $398,812 at Chatham Square, a family could add instant hot water dispensers to the kitchen and master bath, a whole house fan, a touch-screen programmable thermostat, low-e coating to the insulated windows, an attic fan, an insulated garage door and an energy-efficient fireplace using just less than 25 percent of the free options offer.

This would leave more than $56,000 in options available for luxury selections such as adding a private bath to a second-floor bedroom, kitchen upgrades that include stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, added ceiling height and ceiling detail throughout the home, premium lot selection, an additional garage bay for storage, a workshop or to park their new Prius.

“With this offer, a family can have an enviable new Premiere Series or Signature Series home and experience savings both at the point of purchase and for several years to come,” said Minott. “We welcome families to visit our models and see the Prius on-site at Chatham Square during this event.”

Chatham Square is designed around eight ponds, nearly 40 acres of open space, and includes over 1 mile of walking paths. The community is in the Oswego 308 School District, and is located near the corner of Heggs Road and 127th Street.
