Wilson Traditional Homes starts new project in WhiteWater Creek community

Wilson Traditional Homes Inc. is presenting the Statesboro, the latest in its line of “historical plans for finer living.”

Construction is underway in WhiteWater Creek community, and the first home in this series is nearing completion.

The base price of the Statesboro is in the high $400's, and the overall design vernacular is based on the historical style of architecture found in coastal Savannah near the turn of the century.

It is a colonial architectural design dating the home from the 1840 to 1910 period.

The four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home has 4,621 square feet on the first and second floors, and approximately 980 square feet in the basement. The master suite contains a sleeping area, study, office, two oversized closets and large bathing area complete with whirlpool, double shower with double shower head and controls.

Some of the other special features of the home include a curved staircase against a historically correct marble foyer floor. Granite counter tops grace the large, spacious kitchen/breakfast area.

There is ceramic tile in all baths, and hardwood floors cover almost all of the first floor. Crown molding is throughout the first floor, and other specialty molding surrounds the first floor.

The oversized upstairs bedrooms provide for lots of growing room and for all of the new “tech toys” available today.

In the spirit of the open, airy coastal style of architecture, the plan has a covered lanai integrated into a cantilevered sun room. This area is off the finished basement and leads to the landscaped rear yard.

For information about the Statesboro or any of the other historical plans available, phone Wilson Traditional Homes Inc. at 770-461-6165.

Ken Wilson, owner and president of the Fayetteville-based firm, has been in the home building business since 1982 and has operated Wilson Traditional Homes Inc. since 1987.

A residential design/build firm, Wilson has most recently been active in the Lake Spivey area of Clayton County; the Woodlands, Royal Ridge, WhiteWater Creek and Kingswood in Fayetteville; White Oak Country Club in Coweta County; Smoke Rise and Stoneybrook Plantation in Peachtree City, and several individual lot locations all around the Southern Crescent.

The company also has built in Eagle's Landing in Henry County and the Griffin Country Club in Spalding County.

The company handles home construction from the concept stage, drawing the plans and managing the construction, and remains in the picture through the closing and customer service work.

Wilson is a former president of the Home Builders Association of Midwest Georgia, and his company has participated in past tours of homes in Fayette County.
