Spacious kitchens with staggered wood cabinetry
 Imagine a place to call home set against the scenic and beautiful backdrop of natural surroundings. A neighborhood where friends and family can relax and enjoy the everyday comforts of a luxury, amenity-rich community.  Home ownership without the burden of yard work and exterior maintenance. You’ve just envisioned the Courtyards at Pepper Creek, a residential community in beautiful Valparaiso that offers beautiful, maintenance-free, ranch homes ranging in size from 1,500 to 2,800 square feet and starting from the $230’s.


Maintenance-Free Ranch Homes means more time for you.
The Courtyards at Pepper Creek, an Epcon Community constructed by premier builder Wilcox Communities, is situated in one of the most desirable subdivisions of Northwestern Indiana.  Here residents enjoy surrounding ponds, woods and meandering walking trails, yet are located just minutes from all the conveniences and activities that nearby Valparaiso as well as the Chicagoland area have to offer.

The community’s unique floor plans offer all the appeal of a maintenance-free lifestyle in a single-family, ranch home. All homes are built as 2 or 3 bedrooms with a 2 or 2.5-car garage and highlight spacious living areas, volume ceilings, expanded master suites, stair-free living and beautiful landscape packages with a variety of plantings.  Buyers have plentiful options and a wealth of amenities when deciding on a living arrangement that caters to their personal needs, including the option for a covered porch and private courtyard.

Open floor plans centered around the private courtyard

Within the community, three featured stand-alone, ranch models offer something for every type of buyer. The Palazzo—the community’s most affordable option—features over-sized bedrooms, a customizable gourmet kitchen, an abundance of windows and many versatile room options, including a fireplace, den and a seasonal veranda. Buyers looking for maximum function in a home will find that the Portico’s layout offers optimal efficiency and storage space. Finally, the Promenade floor plan features an elegant, open layout with a wall of windows overlooking a gorgeous courtyard. All three single-family, ranch floor plans highlight impressive touches and distinctive features throughout, including a spacious garage, elegant entryways and walk-in closets.

“Attractive pricing, versatile floor plans, a prime location, impressive community amenities and full exterior maintenance services are just some of the reasons the Courtyards at Pepper Creek is the perfect place to call home,” said Leigh Nevers, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

Of course, any floor plan can be customized to meet a buyer’s personal needs and preferences. For those seeking luxury customization opportunities, home buyers can request a full basement, second-story bonus suite, and upgraded flooring and appliances, to name a few.

Because Wilcox believes its residents deserve more time to do the things they love to do, the Courtyards at Pepper Creek offers a carefree lifestyle for the active adult. Maintenance-free living means someone else takes care of the yard work and exterior upkeep — buyers never have to worry about keeping up with the lawn or outdoor chores again. Residents can have the peace of mind knowing a professionally managed association is caring for their home year-round.
