One Chippewa Trail

The magnificent respite found at One Chippewa Trail in Brecksville features some of the most luxurious manors money can buy. But Petros Homes offers something that most other builders just can’t provide—an entire team of experts to guide you through every aspect of the new construction process.

Date: 07/22/2008 The word luxury conjures up the image of a lot of different things.

Boats, cars, jewelry, even real estate may, at some time, have the word “luxury” applied as a manner of introduction.

And while you might think that owning something magnificent enough to support such a moniker should simply be classified as “expensive,” there are those rare occasions when a tremendous amount of quality, superior craftsmanship and exquisite attention to detail lends itself to just one word.
Luxury.

At One Chippewa Trail—the recently constructed manor home community launched by Petros Homes—discriminating homebuyers in search of the true meaning of the word luxury need look no further.

“This location is unlike any other,” says Gary Naim, president of Petros Homes. “It promises the serenity and tranquility that most professionals are looking for in a neighborhood, with homes that have been constructed using the finest craftsmen available, and the best materials we could find.”
And that’s just part of the reason that of the original 13 carefully chosen, half-acre home sites, only three remain available for purchase.

Located just east of the center of downtown Brecksville, One Chippewa Trail offers homeowners the unique ambiance of a rushing waterfall—courtesy of the Chippewa Creek; wooded enclaves that are delicately balanced by breathtaking meadow views; and the convenience of protected parkland located just across the street.

Its seemingly secluded country manor flavor is belied by the fact that residents are just a short drive—or walk—from every conceivable shopping and dining amenity. But unlike some overly developed developments, One Chippewa Trail forgoes the obtrusiveness of a communal clubhouse in favor of larger green space and quiet comfort.

Extras also come standard on every Petros design. “We’ve chosen to present our homes as materially superior wholes,” Gary promises.

This means that every home in One Chippewa Trail includes what other custom home builders consider extras, like granite countertops, stone fronts, cement fiber siding, Kohler plumbing fixtures, designer appliances, hardwood floors, and architectural exterior details like copper roof accents and cupolas.

In fact, Petros Homes’ One Chippewa Trail was bestowed the award for Best Architectural Design and voted Community of the Year by the Cleveland Choice Awards. And Gary says the starting price for a home in One Chippewa is a fraction of what you’ll pay for the same home at resale.

“It’s been the fastest selling communities we’ve ever designed,” he boasts. A superb bonus for business professionals who may find their residency in Brecksville cut short by a promotion or transfer.

Convenient access to major highways and Downtown Cleveland make One Chippewa Trail a commuter’s dream.
Of the three remaining home sites, one lot already boasts a 3,212 square foot completed residence overlooking the soothing waters of Chippewa Creek. The other two lots promise relaxing meadow views, delicately married to a backdrop of mature pines along with other indigenous old-growth trees.

The completed home is available for immediate occupancy—for now.

It features three bedrooms complimented by a first floor den and loft overlooking the great room. The partially finished walk out basement includes a sunken entertainment area, fireplace and rough in for a future full bath. The three-car garage allows plenty of room for cars and “toys” and the screened-in porch makes relaxing summer evenings all the more enjoyable.

For those fortunate enough to acquire the two remaining lots, there are four stunning floor plans to choose from that range in size from 2,500 to 4,000 square feet and allow for either first floor or two-story living. Custom options include three car garages, sunrooms, screened in porches and specialty outdoor enhancements.

“We make it easy for any buyer interested in new construction to get the customization they’re looking for, without going through the drudgery of multiple store visits and numerous builder meetings,” Gary promises.
To do that, Petros Homes employs a team of professionals to guide you through every aspect of construction.

“Typically, our buyers need only visit with us four or five times,” he offers. “We carefully review all of their requirements and then present them with options that we think match their preferences. It saves a lot of time and takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process.” An important thing for anyone who spends most of their day at work and wants to use their downtime for relaxing, instead of pouring over paint swatches.

Your Petros building experience doesn’t end once the house has been completed either.

“From concept to completion, no other builder can match our level of service,” Gary stresses. “In addition to an in-house design staff, we also employ a team of warranty and service professionals to handle any concerns once your house is finished.”

In the unlikely event that the lot of your dreams is not located within the charming One Chippewa Trail community, Petros Homes is more than happy to bring one of their award-winning designs to the site of your choosing.

And now, any home can benefit from the Petros touch.

“We’ve recognized the need for existing homeowners to find reliable and trustworthy home remodeling professionals,” Gary offers. “We provide the comfort of dealing with a well established custom builder who knows how homes should come together. Adding custom remodeling to our offerings just made sense.”

One Chippewa Trail is located just off of St. Route 82, east of Downtown Brecksville. The model is open Saturday through Wednesday from Noon to 5 p.m. For more information about this or any other Petros Homes location, or the new home remodeling service, call 440-821-1754.
