Pros and Cons of Living in a Master-Planned Community

September 17, 2019

 | 

Master planned communities continue to pop up all over Northeast Florida, offering a new option for buyers seeking a beautiful home and sense of community.  Just some of these communities include eTown, Nocatee, Wildlight, Beachwalk, RiverTown, Shearwater, Tamaya, TrailMark, Palencia, OakLeaf Plantation, World Golf Village and many more.

 

While there are plenty of upsides to master-planned community living, there are also a few downsides you may want to consider when making the move to one of these communities.

 

Pro: Nearby amenities and services

Perhaps the most highly regarded of pros people cite for living in a master-planned community is convenient proximity to stores, service providers and amenities.

In a master-planned community, almost everything you need from Publix and dry cleaners to a UPS store and elementary school are just a short drive, bike ride or walk away.

World Golf Village: A Growing Vibrant Community

January 8, 2019

 | 

I have been in St Augustine and World Golf Village for 15 years.  In that time I have seen many wonderful changes. I feel it is growing to a vibrant community and creating a wonderful environment to live in.  It will be offering retail and outdoor activities for families as well as Senior residents.

 

Other than one of the most established 55+ communities in WGV, Cascades, which offers single-family homes in a gated community where you can experience a beautiful maintenance free setting along with state-of-the-art recreational amenities in the gorgeous 22,000 sq. ft. Grand Clubhouse; you will be able to choose from a few more 55+ communities, retail, and restaurants nestled in the heart of WGV!

 

Come back to my blog next week to read about the senior communities that are currently available as well as those coming in the near future! Also visit my FB for more information, tips, and events in the surrounding area

January 7, 2019

 | 

Tim and Shelley Nemethy, the Davidson Realty duo known as The Nemethy Group, recently hosted a Thanksgiving Holiday Pie Party to show their gratitude to customers.

 

Customers selected their pie flavor of choice via mail (either pecan, pumpkin or apple) and the Nemethys invited those customers to pick up their pies at the party in the Davidson Realty courtyard in World Golf Village.

 

More than 40 Nemethy Group customers came to enjoy snacks, drinks, socializing and the music of a talented cellist. A great time was had by all!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pies were from local favorite eatery Village Inn.

 

This is the first year of the Nemethy Holiday Pie Party, but we look forward to many parties—and delicious pies—to come in the future!
