In early 2017, Northbrook residents Bob and Christa Bolt were just starting to think a move to a maintenance-free community designed for empty nesters might be in their future in the next 10 years.

As construction progresses this summer at Anets Woods, the community is really taking shape as we continue to break ground on new home sites.

Edward R. James Companies is proud to announce the closeout of another successful community—Brighton Mews, our 29-unit luxury townhome development in the heart of Park Ridge, Ill. Key to the community’s fast sales pace—it sold out in less than two years—was the rare opportunity to buy new construction in this sought-after, inner-ring suburb just steps from the community’s bustling downtown.
Sales of newly-constructed homes rebounded in May, and government data was revised to show a stronger spring selling season than had been previously reported, another sign that the housing market remains on firm footing.
Anets Woods, a new community of 32 maintenance-free luxury single-family homes under construction by Edward R. James Companies at 1230 Voltz Road in Northbrook, is taking shape as the community’s entrance has recently been completed with the installation of lush landscaping and Pennsylvania fieldstone. A model home is also under construction at the community.
With 105 closings in 2016, Builder Magazine has ranked Edward R. James in the top 10 local leaders.
