Framingham complex taking open houses to the next level with a block party
This weekend, the homes of new Framingham community ‘Montage at Danforth Green’ will be unveiled with a block party.
Tired of an endless cycle of open houses and same old, same old tours?
Montage at Danforth Green, a new community in Framingham, is unveiling its model homes this weekend with a ribbon cutting ceremony, cocktail party, and a block party.
Brent Dumont, marketing manager for Boston Realty Advisors, said the fanfare accompanying the reveal is typical of developer Brendon Homes, which has won awards from the Builders Association of Greater Boston for its single-family homes and affordable communities.
“They do like to present their communities in the best light, so we do larger events,’’ Dumont said. “They’re very proud and they should be of the construction they do. They’re absolutely beautiful homes.’’
The community is located at 1060 Old Connecticut Path, two miles from the Mass. Pike and 20 miles from Boston, and close to amenities like The Natick Mall, Wayland Town Center, a Whole Foods, and other restaurants.
While the unveiling will focus on showcasing two designer model homes (one single-family home and one duplex) to potential buyers, the community will eventually contain 173 houses when its complete in three years.
The main event, a block party and model grand opening, begins at 11 a.m. on Sunday, June 14, when the public is invited to tour the homes and enjoy food trucks, ice cream trucks, music, giveaways, and refreshments.
On Friday, June 12, a ribbon cutting ceremony starts at 9:30 a.m. and is expected to see over 60 attendees, including local and state officials, said Dumont.
Over 60 percent of the 53 homes in the first phase of the community have been presold, with residents beginning to move in this July.
Here’s a peek inside the community:
Buyers can choose from seven different floor plans and between the two home styles: single-family or duplex. Homes feature kitchens and bathrooms with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, along with oak hardwood floors and gas fireplaces in the family rooms. Attached homes start at $429,900, while detached homes start at $529,900.
Dumont said the gorgeous model homes aren’t for sale…yet.
“We hold onto them to use as a sales office and model as we sell the community, then sell them at the end,’’ he said. “They won’t be for sale this weekend but people can get an idea of the beautiful finishes in the homes and the quality of construction.’’
