Developer plans new homes for Crescent Village

When the Butlers were looking for their company’s next construction project, they knew that it needed to be something different from the homes that the company had been building for the past few years.

“The market has changed,” says Mandi Butler. “People are looking for different design features in a home than they were 10 or even 5 years ago. Our lifestyles are changing; we all have less time and want to be conscious of how we use that time.”

Future B Homes is very familiar with the North Gilham area and when they heard that there was an opportunity to design new single family homes in Crescent Village, the company saw this opportunity as a chance to build homes for today’s lifestyle.

Very few builders are building speculative homes in the current economy, but the Butlers believe the company has enough market knowledge and experience to deliver what buyers want. “Crescent Village provides the low maintenance, convenience and efficiency that people are demanding in their homes now.”

Future B Homes has been developing neighborhoods in North Eugene for over 30 years. Robert and Dorothy Butler built one of the company’s first homes on Crescent Avenue, and two generations later the family is following in their grandparents footsteps, having constructed over 200 homes in some of North Eugene’s premier neighborhoods: River Pointe, Crescent Meadows and, most recently, Hawthorne Estates.

Future B Homes has designed two styles of homes for Crescent Village. The look will be very similar to the three story homes that line the east side of Lord Byron Place currently, but will have one-story less than their three-story cousins. The model home, on the front lot of Lord Byron, will be showcased on this year’s Tour of Homes.

“Both home styles will have the master bedroom on the main level, which is a trend that we have found appeals to all types of people,” said Mandi. “Plus we have incorporated open living spaces that connect the living, dining and kitchen area. Despite the smaller footprint, the home will provide very generous storage areas, as well as flex spaces.
