“One of the best attractions to our area is the opportunity to buy local, fresh food at the local farmers markets,” explains Garrett Melahn, Community Sales Manager for The Ranch at Sheldon Hills. “But with 2 to 3 acre parcels, you can have your backyard work for you. Create your own farmers market and enjoy fresh, healthy choices literally year round. Make your property work for you and your family. No where else in the area can you choose from so many produce and even meat options. Your “homestead” will save you money by becoming your personal supermarket.”

Nothing in the area compares to the new homes at The Ranch at Sheldon Hills. The useable acreage offers unlimited possibilities in terms of design and function. Each of the homes offer an aura of grandeur and elegance that today’s new home market is lacking. Beginning with a picturesque covered bridge entry, continuing through with meandering roads that lead to each homestead, and being surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty that serves as the perfect backdrop, Sheldon Hills offers a well-designed neighborhood boasting spectacular 2-3 acre properties.

“People spend a lot of money for local produce that they could be growing on their own with very little work,” explains Melahn. “Let JTS’ help you in creating an environment that will bring a lifestyle to your family like nowhere else in the area. We can even help you find what grows best in the natural soils of our very fertile region, and how to build a greenhouse so you can ‘farm’ year-round.”

“Lately, the buzz words in the real estate industry have included ‘generational’ and multi-family’,” explains Garrett Melahn, Community Sales Manager for The Ranch at Sheldon Hills. “But here at Sheldon Hills, we have been building our homes so that as your family grows, shrinks, and grows again, you will already be in a home that allows continued and un-interrupted living when an unexpected, or expected, change happens. Our homes offer multi-master suites and living areas, so when your children leave and come home from college, it makes the transition easy. If parents can no longer live alone, the design of our homes creates an environment that will give everyone the space and privacy they so desire. We have been building this way for years, with family in mind….with life in mind.”

“The number one reason people buy here is because of the privacy,” explains Garrett Melahn, Community Sales Manager for The Ranch at Sheldon Hills. “With 2 to 3 acre parcels, you never feel like your neighbor is right on top of you. The number two reason our buyers have purchased is because they said it was the last home they ever wanted to own. That says a lot about our area and the vision our buyers have with their home.”

It is a locale where you can walk to downtown and wave to your neighbors along the way, or enjoy a round of golf just seconds from your front door, or hike to your favorite fishing hole. The possibilities are endless.

The drive into the historic foothills of Ione brings to the imagination the Gold Rush days. The thought of independent, focused miners bent on making their fortune is how the area became what it is today. Ione was a place of commerce, a supply center, and offered railroad service to the men and women working in the area. The same cornerstones that helped found Ione are still prevalent today. Many of the shopkeepers live within blocks of the 150 year old buildings where they work. Services to the community and access to the foothills make Ione a fantastic place to live and play.
