Join us at Ellis Point on Saturday June 15th for a wine mixer at our award winning Catalina model home.
Special pricing, refreshments and our friendly staff will welcome you to tour the Catalina and the community. We only have 15 more homesites available and are showcasing them during the event. The views in Ellis Point are just amazing! Check out the photo below.

Quiet and secluded, Ellis Point is one with its surroundings
Ellis Point is immersed in the peaceful setting of our coastal uplands and natural tidal wetlands offering a diverse environment for an amazing variety of wildlife. Bordering on Holts Landing State park our open space blends with the wildlife sanctuary area of the park. Wild Turkeys, Deer, Blue Herons, Great Egrets, waterfowl, shorebirds and others entertain the homeowners daily.
A walk along the shores of the Indian River on the private sandy beach reveals endless evidence of other water related wildlife. The wildlife as well as the residents enjoy escaping into the quiet and seclusion of Ellis Point. I’m not sure the wildlife appreciate the picturesque and expansive views of the Indian River Bay, but I know the residents do.
Little does the surrounding environment know how busy we are. The proximity to Bethany Beach, the incredible setting and our award winning model, the Catalina, has attracted lots of activity since we opened it late last fall. Seven future residents have already contracted for their dream home on the Indian River Bay.


When Sussex County Habitat for Humanity approached Schell Brothers about sponsoring the Walt Jones Memorial Golf Outing, there wasn’t any hesitation; Chris and Preston definitely wanted to help out. Between Schell Brothers, Echelon Interiors, and the Schell Family Foundation, over $25,000 was donated to Habitat for Humanity to help build affordable housing for families in need right here in Sussex County.
The tournament started in 2005 when Walt Jones and his family donated the Par 3 Golf Course as a location for the Golf Outing in support of Habitat. Since his passing two years ago, the tournament has been carried on by his family and friends and renamed in his honor.
With weather in the low 70’s and the sun shining, it would have been hard to ask for a more perfect day to play golf. Two Schell Brothers teams took to the action on the greens during the day with one of the teams ending in a 4-way tie. Although they didn’t come away with the ultimate win, one of their members, Jill Burton, got the award for closest to the pin. All in all it was a fun, successful day for everyone and I know I personally look forward to shooting the video again next year!!

Adam and I have been having a bit of fun here at Bayfront and I think you’re going to enjoy it too. The Explore Bayfront Grand Opening Event is just around the corner so to get you ready for it we’ve prepared a short adventure video.
This is my acting debut and I had the privilege of working with the self proclaimed “one-take-wonder” himself (Adam). I think I stole the stage myself, but you can judge for yourself. Check it out and let me know what you think.
I hope to see you at the event on June 8th. While you are out here, definitely check out our new model home, The Mulberry, which is available for leaseback. The courtyard is really looking great, and its got a view of the Bay.


This week the proud new owners of our Heron model at the Ridings took ownership and moved in! We are very excited for them!
Jordan and I are pumped to announce that we have a new model home under construction just up the street in our newly released phase 3! We’re building the Ainsley from Kincade Homes by Schell Brothers and I can’t wait to show you how amazing this home is. My favorite feature of the Ainsley is the flexibility it offers; You can choose one level or two story living, or a large gourmet kitchen, just to name a few possibilities.
If you are interested in a great investment opportunity, the Ainsley is available as a model leaseback for $455,900 fully furnished. The model will be nearing its completion at the end of May, and we’re currently taking appointments for sneak peak tours, so connect with us if you want to check it out.
We’re down to just 22 home sites left in our final phase at The Ridings, all featuring ½ acre wooded or pond views. We’re building floor plans from both Schell Brothers and Kincade Homes by Schell Brothers, so you have lots of great choices here at The Ridings.
Give us a shout if you’d like to come tour our new Ainsley model before the official Grand Opening in July! Hope to see you soon!

The competition is over, the winners have been picked. Are you painting the town red with me this Summer? Check out the video and see who got lucky.
