Now Open: Step Inside the Monroe II at Sunset Ridge in Richmond, Illinois

There’s something special about walking into a brand-new home that still carries the quiet promise of “this could be yours.” At Sunset Ridge in Richmond, Illinois, that feeling arrives the moment you pull up to 5420 Pheasant Lane.
The Monroe II, a thoughtfully designed two-story home built by KLM Builders, is now open for tours. Spanning 2,649 square feet, this is the kind of house that balances everyday practicality with room to grow—literally and figuratively.
A Layout That Works for Real Life
Four bedrooms give everyone their own space, while a dedicated den offers a quiet retreat for work, reading, or simply closing the door when the day gets loud. Two and a half baths keep the morning rush manageable. Upstairs, the primary suite and secondary bedrooms feel private yet connected; downstairs, the great room and formal dining area open the home for gatherings without feeling cavernous.
In the kitchen, stone countertops catch the light and stainless-steel appliances stand ready for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday baking. It’s the kind of kitchen that invites people to linger.
Outside, a three-car garage solves the storage puzzle most families face. Below, a full nine-foot basement with daylight views waits unfinished. It offers a blank canvas space you can finish later as a rec room, home gym, guest suite, or whatever your future needs turn out to be.

Built by People Who Know Northern Illinois
KLM Builders has been constructing homes in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin for decades. At Sunset Ridge they deliver well-equipped homes with the finishes many builders treat as upgrades: stone countertops, quality cabinetry, efficient systems, and full basements as standard. The Monroe II is their current model open for viewing, giving you the chance to walk the actual floor plan, open the cabinets, and stand in the spaces rather than just studying drawings.
Richmond Living
Sunset Ridge sits in Richmond, a quieter corner of McHenry County where open space and small-town rhythm still exist. You’re close enough to the conveniences of the northwest suburbs yet far enough to enjoy evening walks without constant traffic noise. The community offers a selection of ranch and two-story plans, so the Monroe II is just one option if another layout fits your family better.
Model hours are currently Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call (815) 678-4018 or stop by 5420 Pheasant Lane to walk through yourself.
