Dreaming of your own little piece of Italy? Affinity Homes’ Tuscan-inspired Bella Vista has just what you’re looking for. A one-of-a-kind community conveniently located in St. Peters, near the intersection of Hwy. 94 and the Page Avenue Extension, Bella Vista features warm and charming single-family homes built with expert craftsmanship, natural textures and innovative architectural features.

Only open a short while, this new-home destination has already become a hit with homebuyers. “With construction on the beautiful Dolce underway, the community is really starting to take shape and now’s the best time to stop by and receive the best selection of homesites,” says Community Sales Manager Sheri Luster. “Plus, Affinity Homes is offering such a wide selection of options that are very affordable, you owe it to yourself to stop by to price and compare your dream home.”

This beautiful neighborhood features 139 single-family homes innovatively designed and priced from $240’s to $400’s. Not to mention its convenience to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. “The good news about being near the Page Avenue Extension is that it provides a short commute to Clayton, West Port and the West County areas,” Luster notes. Those with children will be pleased to know that Bella Vista serves the highly desirable Francis Howell School District.

In addition to its prime location, Bella Vista offers six impressive and spacious models including ranch, 1 ½-story and two-story designs. “Our ranch models have 1,685-2,060 square feet of living space, and the 1 ½-story and two-story designs will have between 2,160-3,100 square feet of living space,” says Luster. “Each plan has three to five bedrooms and 2 to 3 ½ baths, allowing plenty of room for a growing family or for entertaining guests.”

“These are all new designs that have never been seen before. Each model has its own unique character with brick, stone and siding exteriors with steeply pitched or elegantly swooping rooflines. These are features you don’t see in this price range.”

For example, the exceptional two-story Dolce design is quite flexible with 4-5 bedrooms, 2 ½- 4 ½ baths, 2,879 - 3,085 sq. ft. of living space and plenty of fabulous options. “Directly off the foyer are a private study with optional French doors and a highly desirable formal dining room featuring a two-story ceiling,” notes Luster. “The spacious great room, open to the dining room, includes an optional see through fireplace with a line of plant shelves above and an optional media niche.”

“If you enjoy cooking and entertaining, the Dolce’s kitchen is sure to impress,” Luster comments. “With an optional large center island, plenty of counter space, optional TV niche and optional butler’s pantry/planning desk, this kitchen is a chef’s dream come true!”

“Upstairs you’ll find more than enough space with three oversized bedrooms in addition to the master suite,” Luster says. “At the height of luxury, the master suite features a double-door entry that opens to the bedroom with optional columns on the left and the bath on the right. The bedroom includes an optional tray ceiling and the bath comes complete with a corner tub with two windows above, separate shower, His-and-Her walk-in closets and a linen closet.”

Base price of the Dolce is $283,576.

“Best yet, every Bella Vista home comes complete with a two-car garage or with the option of a three-car garage on a select number of sites. Interior standards include Whirlpool kitchen appliances; luxurious master suites with cultured marble shower and separate soaking tub, 2 sinks, abundant walk-in closets and 9’ first-floor ceilings. Exterior standards create an aesthetically pleasing neighborhood with carriage-style garage doors, siding-to-grade and matching mailboxes. “These incredible features are not typically standard on homes in this price range,” notes Luster. “Optional built-ins like bookcases, media niches and window seats and eye-catching architectural details like rich interior finishes with dark wood, warm tones and natural textures can personalize your home.”
