“ The New Boat-House micro-neighborhood connects the themes of boating essentials and living on the water’s edge, to easy access to boat slips and planned kayak launch “

A new micro-neighborhood of only 12 ranch and two-story, low-maintenance homes are NOW AVAILABLE. Built along Heritage Harbor’s award-winning marina and based upon water enthusiasts’ desire to connect with water, these homes are a boater’s dream.  

Less than 85 minutes from Chicago in Ottawa, Heritage Harbor offers several distinct neighborhoods, including villas, cottages, low-maintenance single-family homes and luxury, custom residences centered around a state-of-the-art 140-slip marina and Red Dog Grill Restaurant as well numerous neighborhood clubhouses and swimming pools. The Heritage Harbor activity director plans year-round events for residents and guests, including live music on weekends, crafts, cooking classes, tours, and the weekly, Saturday 5K walk and run.  

The New Boat-House micro-neighborhood connects the themes of boating essentials and living on the water’s edge, to easy access to boat slips and planned kayak launch.  An arrival home can fast lead to recreation and leisure time spent on the water.  Boaters and non-boaters alike appreciate Heritage Harbor’s scenic water views with Great Loop access, water skiing, jet skiing, pontoon boating, kayaking, fishing and more.   

Priced from the $299s, homes in the Boat-House neighborhood range from 975 to 1700 square feet in size with two or three bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, charming front and back porches, open concept living areas, as well as finished lower levels with recreation room, full bathroom, bedroom, storage, and covered deck.  

“The Boat-House homes feature generous porches, outdoor community spaces, and harbor views. The lower level walk-out faces the harbor walk, providing homeowners with immediate access to the water amenities. The monochrome streetscape ties these homes together as a micro-neighborhood on the West Peninsula. The Boat-House homes showcase the architectural style of modern farmhouse with a nautical flair. ”

Situated along the harbor, owners in this neighborhood will enjoy the proximity of their homes to the boat slips positioned directly in front of their homes. They will enjoy the nautical views as well as easy access to the docks and kayak launch. 

This multi-generational neighborhood is the perfect setting for generations to thrive, for the stirring of imaginations, and for the creation of lasting memories.
