Welcome to Avanterra

Just 60 miles from downtown Chicago, Avanterra is a private gated community featuring 23 generously sized homesites thoughtfully integrated into more than 100 acres of rolling countryside. Designed to balance privacy, natural beauty, and shared amenities, Avanterra offers a rare opportunity to build a custom home in a setting that feels both secluded and connected.

At the heart of the community are more than 60 acres of permanently preserved conservation land, with miles of private walking trails winding through mature hardwood forests, native wildflower prairies, and gently rolling terrain. Residents also enjoy a stocked fishing pond and a landscape carefully planned to preserve the character and beauty of the property for generations to come.

As Avanterra continues to evolve, community amenities are planned to be introduced in thoughtfully phased stages. The long-term vision includes The Oasis, a centrally located gathering space envisioned to feature a resort-style swimming pool, outdoor grilling areas, and a clubhouse designed for community events, casual gatherings, and private celebrations. Development of these amenities will occur in phases as the community continues to grow.

A distinctive feature of Avanterra is its restored historic log cabin, carefully preserved and relocated beside the pond. The cabin provides a unique gathering place surrounded by open green space that can be enjoyed for a variety of outdoor activities, quiet reflection, or simply taking in the natural surroundings.

With only 23 oversized homesites, Avanterra provides one of the region's few shovel-ready opportunities to design and build a custom residence in a thoughtfully planned community. High-speed fiber internet, paved private roads, and modern infrastructure complement the property's natural setting, allowing homeowners to create a residence tailored to their individual needs and lifestyle.

Avanterra offers an exceptional combination of experiences:

• A peaceful natural setting just minutes from the beaches, dining, golf, wineries, and year-round attractions of Southwest Michigan and Harbor Country.

• The feeling of expansive open space, enhanced by more than 60 acres of shared conservation land, while enjoying the convenience of professionally maintained community grounds.

• The privacy of a gated community combined with opportunities to connect through shared amenities, scenic walking trails, and future community gathering spaces as the master plan is completed.

Whether envisioned as a full-time residence or a weekend retreat, Avanterra offers a rare opportunity to enjoy custom home living surrounded by natural beauty, modern infrastructure, and convenient access to both Chicago and the Lake Michigan shoreline.
