Inside Union Village Homes: Three Standout Features
/When you visit this village in the making, you’ll immediately notice the variety of homes available. The single-family homes already built along Allen and Anderson streets at Union Village, Ohio are all unique. Yet, they are all part of a compatible streetscape. Townhomes have been a popular seller and add even more visual interest and options for homebuyers.
Some features of the homes are less than obvious but important to creating a clear sense of place at Union Village. These unifying features are part of building a neighborhood on the foundation of new urbanism that will stand the test of time.
Exceptional Craftsmanship is Essential to Union Village Homes
An extraordinary level of craftsmanship distinguishes Union Village homes from most new home construction. Authentic details are found throughout the interior and exterior of each home. Exterior window shutters open and close and are also sized appropriately. The windows themselves are vertically oriented, allowing a great deal of natural light into the room. Muntins, which simulate divided light, create an authentic, historical look to the home.
Hardwood floors, coffered ceilings and built-in shelving add style, character and even functionality to the homes. Each home takes on a unique personality based on its place in the neighborhood.

Front Porches Stand Out at Union Village
Placing garages in the rear of each home allows the porch to be the emphasis in the front. The neighborhood is designed to accommodate residents first and foremost, and cars are secondary. The porches have a minimum depth of eight feet, which provides residents room to gather, relax on swings and rocking chairs or enjoy other activities. The porches are also elevated to provide a sense of privacy and sweeping views of the neighborhood.
Some Union Village homes even offer second-story porches, which provides some separation from neighbors who pass by while it’s still possible to wave and say, “hello.”

Floor Plans are Designed for Simply Living
Union Village homes are designed to combine style with function for modern families. Mudrooms, nooks and laundry rooms are strategically placed for daily needs. Home offices and common areas for schoolwork are practical and found in many Union Village floor plans, while entertaining is also a consideration. Open areas connect kitchen, living and dining rooms. Some floor plans call for above-the-garage apartments and bonus rooms which are great for hosting guests.
