\nThere’s lots to celebrate in the new year, including the news that we are now selling in The Highlands<\/a>! Located in Chesterfield, Virginia, it may seem cliche to say ‘this community is unlike any other’ but it truly is. From the 65-acre community lake, to the expansive homesites, to those awesome amenities, The Highlands is soon to be on your radar (if it’s not already). But we’ll let Leigh fill you in on our new homes in The Highlands, including favorite floor plans, must-have selections, and our current incentives.
\nMarketing and sales talk aside, what do you think makes The Highlands so unique?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nThere is something special about The Highlands that makes you feel at home just driving through the community and taking in its natural beauty. \u00a0The community is located in the heart of Chesterfield County with a wooded surrounding that provides a serene sense of community.<\/em>
\nThis is a well-established, master planned community with a ton of awesome amenities, what are a few favorites that you think our future homeowners will love the most?<\/strong>
\nHow could I only choose just a few favorites with the number of amenities The Highlands has to offer? There is a 65-acre community lake that is perfect for fishing, paddling and sailing, or you can take a swim in the Junior Olympic pool or splash-park! You can also enjoy a round of golf on The Highlands’ 18 hole\u00a0championship golf course. There are also plenty of walking and hiking trails throughout the community. <\/em>
\nThere is a little bit of everything for all ages!<\/em>
\nAnd how about those lot sizes! 1-5 acres?<\/strong>
\nThe Highlands and Lake Margaret both offer acre-plus homesites perfect for you and your family to enjoy. Imagine what you could do with all of that space . . . The Highlands offers both privacy and relaxation in your own backyard!\u00a0 And in Lake Margaret, enjoy your acre with no yard work\u2026even better! <\/em>
\nHow about location – The Highlands seemingly offers everything you might need right in the community, but what else is nearby? Local schools? Favorite restaurants? Nearby things to do?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIt is just minutes to Pocohantas State Park which is perfect for all the nature lovers!<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>
\nThe Highlands is a\u00a0convenient commute to downtown Richmond\u00a0and all the\u00a0shopping and dining\u00a0that Chesterfield and Chester have to offer. Route 288, Chippenham Parkway and I-95 make it easy to get around town!<\/em>
\nOne of my favorite local restaurants is Riptides Seafood Restaurant<\/a> off Iron Bridge Rd.\u00a0 The best part about it is that they are the same owners of The Highlands’ very own restaurant, The Reserve<\/a>! If you haven\u2019t been there yet\u2014 you are missing out.<\/em>
\nDescribe The Highlands in 3 adjectives:\u00a0<\/strong>
\nPrivate<\/em>
\nSerene<\/em>
\nRelaxing<\/em>
\nSchell is building throughout The Highlands, but also in Lake Margaret. What\u2019s the difference?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nLake Margaret is the maintenance-free, 55+ section nestled towards the back of The Highlands. It offers large, secluded homesites with the ease of maintenance-free living!\u00a0<\/em>Lake Margaret also has its very own clubhouse within the section perfect for neighborhood get-togethers. The best part is the Bocce Ball court.<\/em>
\nLet\u2019s switch gears and talk industry trends. What are people looking for right now in a new home in Richmond?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nOur basements have been a fan favorite for sure! Whether folks are trying to downsize, looking to use that extra space for storing, or interested in having an additional place for entertaining\u2014 people are really noticing the advantages of a basement. We have countless options for all of the variety of uses.\u00a0 The best part\u2026 we INCLUDE a basement foundation with our homes in The Highlands and Lake Margaret! <\/em>
\nIn your opinion, what sets Schell Brothers apart from other builders in the area?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nRelated to the home, our Schellter\u2122 Advanced Building Science technologies provides the ultimate high performance home for our homeowners. People walk into our models and say they can just feel the difference in our quality! <\/em>
\nWhat really sets us apart, though, is our team of employees.\u00a0 We foster a culture of happiness . . . without a doubt and this will transfer into an incredible homebuilding experience for our buyers! We are all so passionate about spreading and creating happiness for ourselves and our homeowners that gives them an unparalleled home building experience. <\/em>
\nIf you had to pick a favorite floor plan, which one would it be and why?\u00a0<\/strong>
\nThis is tough but if I had to choose just one, I would pick the Whimbrel<\/a> floor plan! It is not your typical \u201cranch-style\u201d plan that you may be used to seeing in Richmond. I have folks that weren\u2019t even considering a ranch style floor plan that walk into the Whimbrel and immediately fall in love.\u00a0It is so versatile and has plenty of options to make it your own.\u00a0 It is hard to find a ranch style plan that gives you that open-concept feel but the Whimbrel does just that\u2014 it feels cozy and open at the same time!<\/em>
\nFinal thoughts?<\/strong>
\nAs we open our Kingfisher model home in the first part of 2018, I\u2019m so excited to share our Grand Opening Incentives with you!\u00a0 The included unfinished basement combined with $20,000 in savings off the price is truly AMAZING.\u00a0 I\u2019m so excited for our model to open, but until then\u2026 you should take advantage of our incentive package\u2026 it won\u2019t last long! <\/em>
