"Welcome Home" by Homestead Oak

It is  our pleasure to bring to you the story of James and Jean Martin current owner’s and Jean’s parents ; Jim and Janice Gwin who founded Homestead Oak, Inc. in 1989.  Fast forward 22 years later and even though Jim and Janice Gwin are no longer with us their spirit lives on through Jim and Jean Martin and their staff of caring Home Consultants at Homestead Oak.  They continue to help people in their community attain the American Dream – to own a home. 
Together they bring us a sense of community through various events held throughout the year such as the Easter Egg Hunt coming up on  April 23rd at noon , a Craft Show featuring local artisan’s on May 21st to be held on the sprawling lawn at Homestead Oak in Meadville, then followed by a Classic Car Cruise in on July 15th then to top off the year with the 11th Annual “Festival of Trees” showcasing and raising funds for more than 16 Charitable Organizations from November 25th and runs through December 16th. They are proud to say the Festival of Trees has raised over $70,000 in it’s previous 10 year history for these local charities and is the largest fundraising event in Crawford County.  So the folks at Homestead Oak are not shy in putting their best foot forward for the Community in hosting these wonderful heartfelt events.  We are also the proud sponsor of the Lake Erie Speedway race season for 2011.
The driving force, along with providing quality affordable housing, and an affordable construction alternative, are the basis of which the company was formed, and still stands as the company’s mission statement today. 
What is new at Homestead Oak you might ask?  Well how about “8” new lot model manufactured and modular homes between our Fairview and Meadville locations for 2011 which continue to arrive as quickly as they are being built inside the state of the art factories right here in Pennsylvania.  We are proud to offer homes that are built locally.  We showcase Pennwest and Commodore homes bringing you a value that is second to none in these homes. 


While modular homes are built in a factory setting; they are built to the same exact code to which a contractor would build.  The only difference is that the homes are built in sections in a controlled environment and brought to your property and put together in sections.  You can see a portion of a set on You Tube.  Search for “Homestead Oak” then find the “Bergin Set” to watch the crane in action. 
You can find out more information about the various quality affordable homes being offered by Homestead Oak at www.homesteadoak.com or visit us on Facebook.
