I have a lot of buyers ask me "What is a coach home or a manor home anyway"?  It all started with Lexington Builders on the eastern edge of Schaumburg somewhere 30 years ago.  A 'Coach Home' is simply a different name for a "quad" or group of 4 homes put together.  In the coach home layout there are 2 homes on the 1st floor and 2 homes on the 2nd floor.  Then 2 of these groups of 4 are put together for a total of 8 and 'voila' the coach home!  Some other builders in the area also spun the name 'Manor Home' but it is the same concept. (Building Plan attached below for the truly curious).

Lexington Green is a large coach home community located off Meacham Road just south of Schaumburg Road on both the east & west sides of the street.  The community does offer a pool and clubhouse for the residents and exterior maintenance, snow removal, scavenger service and common area insurance is included in the monthly assessments.  A great golf driving range is located nearby along with the Fox Run Golf Course.  Close to Woodfield Mall, great restaurants and fast access to 355 North or South.

There are 4 models to choose from and could be either on the 1st (patios) or 2nd floors (balconies).  Each model has something unique to offer with "C" and "B" units having closet pantries and are middle units.  "A" and "D" units offer larger eat-in Kitchens and a formal Diningroom space.  A one car garage is included with each home.

C Units 2BR 1BA, Low price of $163,000 to the High Price of $194,500   13 total units closed

B Units 2BR 2BA, Low price of $171,000 to the High Price of $219,900   15 total units closed

D Units 2BR 2BA, Low price of $182,000 to the High Price of $216,000     14 total units closed

A Units 3BR 2BA, Low price of $197,000 to the High Price of $213,900     8 total units closed
