for residents and
guests! This wooded
community has treelined
sidewalks, charming streetlights, and
lush green space. Family, friends, and Fido
will love walking and playing in the neighborhood.
Best of all, you don’t have to do
the work to maintain it!
Your new home will have character too!

owner’s bedroom or new 2-story home
designs. Both have plenty of space depending
on your needs. You’ll love the
gourmet kitchen! Granite countertops,
stainless steel appliances and maple cabinets
add to your stunning kitchen. It’s
perfect for entertaining
family and
friends.
