Fox17 Community Creation with Michael McGraw

One of the best things about building, working, and living in West Michigan and the Greater Lansing Area is the connection Eastbrook Homes has to our incredible communities. Whether we’re hosting open houses or meeting new homeowners at holiday events, Eastbrook Homes takes great pride in our ability to not only give you more home for the money, but strong, vibrant communities to live in as well. Eastbrook Homes Sr. VP of Land Development Michael McGraw recently sat down with local Fox 17 Morning Mix to discuss the unique features and customized planning steps that make Eastbrook communities special.

Friendly Features

Eastbrook Homes starts every build with the end goal in mind: we want to provide high-quality homes at affordable costs in welcoming, diverse communities. Our goal is to give our homeowners a safe, enjoyable place to call home so they can happily live in comfort for generations. Eastbrook communities are intentionally designed with a plethora of amenities built for a wide array of lifestyles and needs. 

From custom-built clubhouses and fitness centers to community pools and playgrounds, we invest time in the details of our communities so you can gain the maximum value from your home build or purchase. Each neighborhood is nestled among a variety of natural features, including woodlands, wetlands, and ponds. Nature trails, lakes, and picnic areas are peppered throughout Eastbrook streets and invite community members to gather and enjoy their families and neighbors. 

Intentional Planning 

Eastbrook Homes prides ourselves on designing communities that age beautifully. We want your neighborhood to look and feel just as charming, enticing, and attractive 20 years from now as it did on move-in day. That’s why we take extra steps in the planning phase of our builds to ensure Eastbrook communities are planned with the future in mind. 

We take the time to map out the perfect street and sidewalk placement so you never miss that spectacular lakeside sunset. We are delicate and detailed with our landscaping efforts so you can experience the colors of autumn and spring in Michigan. Parks and trails are perfectly positioned so they’re easy to walk to from every lot. Our home plans are as diverse and unique as the families who choose them and crafting multi-generational homes in purposefully-planned communities allows families to live nearby one another without sacrificing individual needs and comfort. 

Eastbrook Homes also pays attention to our place on the map. We want our homeowners to have access to the best schools, services, and resources. We study freeway locations and commute times to surrounding major cities to ensure our clients never need to worry about getting to work. Our community locations are heavily vetted against access to hospitals, grocery stores, museums, state parks, and attractions. We understand this isn’t just a home we’re building – it’s a lifestyle.
