Frank Cotroneo, an owner at Artista Homes, says one feature many homeowners enjoy is a three-car ga- rage, with space to park quads and snowmobiles as well as cars. Many rural homes are bungalows, and as a custom builder, Artista can tailor homes for individual needs and interests, including age-in-place designs — something people who are attached to their commu- nities want. “la Salle is a small town with a strong community, so a lot of the people we’ve built for know each other, the faces are familiar when you’re taking your kids to the park or taking your dog for a walk,” says Cotroneo. Tim Comack describes Kingswood South as an en- clave community nestled along the banks of the la Salle river, surrounded by pristine forest and prairie field vistas, and intertwined with the meticulously landscaped Kingswood golf Course. “In Kingswood South you get 100 to 110-foot lots that are up to 400 feet deep,”he says, adding commuters in both la Salle developments have the benefit of living in a relaxed, peaceful environment just a 10-minute drive from the city.
