Dickinson Estates is a beautiful setting for beautiful homes. Phase 1 is surrounded by deep and dramatic ravines, assuring residents of peaceful wooded, private views.
The land has a history as part of the fabled Dickinson family estate, the same family that donated land on which Dickinson Stadium in St. Joseph is now located. Dickinson Estates
is one of the last great pieces of buildable land left in the St. Joseph School System.
The development sits within tall sheltering berms planted with Austrian pines. Entry between the large brick entrance monuments takes you into a private enclave. No through
roads enter the subdivision, leaving Dickinson Estates a private and secure refuge.
Beautiful and elegant traditional homes are beginning to be built, all with great attention to quality. A careful review of the architecture of each home design is being made
in order to ensure aesthetic compatibility among the homes. The resultant sense of neighborhood identity and architechtural harmony is a hallmark of Dickinson Estates. Unlike
most subdivisions, there will not be a hodgepodge of homes, small next to large, contemporary next to traditional.
All utilties in Dickinson Estates have been installed underground. The utilities, already fully paid for, include storm sewers, municipal water and sewer, gas, electric and telephone.
Extra streetlights help keep the subdivision's streets safely lighted. Dickinson Estates' extrawide streets are maintained at no cost to the residents by the County Road commission.
Home values will range from the $400,000's to $1,000,000+
Home owners and their guests will have the exclusive use of Dickinson Estates' private recreational area, which will include a tennis court, playground equipment, and soccer
practice field. One of the nicest benefits of Dickinson Estates' recreational area is that it is a place where neighbors can become friends.
Dickinson Estates' location in the St. Joseph school district gives its residents access to a very highly-rated school system, as well as acess to exceptionally-fine
parochial school opportunties.
