Our Vision
To develop a residential community that is environmentally responsible, pedestrian friendly, encourages community interaction, and is a model for sustainable land use development.
Our Goals
- Cluster the homes around common areas to create a setting that is conducive to resident interaction.
- Create quality homes that are visually interesting, in a moderate price range, with low utility costs and minimal maintenance.
- Have a range of unit sizes and styles, such as Townhomes, Cottages, and Flats.
- Use all feasible "green" building techniques to create a healthy living environment.
- Preserve a significant portion of the land for native habitat and wildlife as well as for the residents and future generations.
