Windsong Properties Announces Final Opportunities at Bel-Aire

Only five homes remain at popular active adult community in West Cobb

ATLANTA – Active adult home buyers who want the luxury of a low-maintenance lifestyle with the feel of country living while remaining centrally located to shopping, dining and entertainment destinations are running out of time to purchase a new home at Bel-Aire in West Cobb. Only five homes remain at the popular community by Windsong Properties, so buyers must act fast if they want to live Where Life’s a Breeze in Powder Springs at Bel-Aire. 

“Buyers love Bel-Aire’s convenient West Cobb location, professionally maintained lawns and its wonderful lifestyle,” said Mark Carruth, managing partner of Windsong Properties. “The active adult community features many beautiful easy living homes. However, only one opportunity remains to own the popular Fairmont home design with views of Bel-Aire’s picturesque park.”

Priced at $367,941, The Fairmont on home site 2 features easy living with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and multi-level outdoor living areas with views of the community’s beautiful park right out front. This Craftsman-style ranch home is designed to pamper its residents with luxurious owner’s retreat with spa-like bathroom that features double vanities, tiled shower with a bench and a walk-in closet. Also on the main level, homeowners will enjoy a bright great room with fireplace open to a designer kitchen with dining room as well as a study, laundry room and secondary bedroom with full bathroom. The kitchen shines with hardwood floors, maple cabinets, granite countertops, tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances. This home also features a finished basement with a third bedroom, full bathroom, entertainment room, wet bar and bonus room that can be used for storage or as a craft room or game room. This home has been started for a faster move-in. 

“We invite buyers to walk around Bel-Aire and the community park here, meet your new neighbors and get a feel for what living here will be like,” Carruth said. “Then I urge you to tour the decorated Fairmont model home—only 10 miles away at Windsong Manor, our ranch community in Dallas—and see the Fairmont realized with Windsong’s thoughtful planning and high standards.”

In addition to the Fairmont, there are three other opportunities to purchase a new home at Bel-Aire.

“We have another very exciting opportunity for the sought-after Hadley plan on home site 56 in the nearly completed Hillside,” said Kris Johnson, sales manager for Windsong Properites. “This extremely popular Hadley plan will begin construction within the next few weeks, so now is the time to make your interior selections and personalize the home.”

That leaves two final opportunities to live at Bel-Aire: Home sites 31 and 32 are available to build either the Sterling or Hadley home designs. Both plans are priced from the mid-$200,000s and feature two bedrooms, two bathrooms, private courtyard retreats and two-car garages.

Located in Powder Springs, Bel-Aire is a quiet enclave of detached active adult homes that feature low-maintenance living with private courtyard retreats, owner’s suites on the main level, open layouts and beautifully landscaped lawns, giving residents more time to enjoy life and explore the surrounding area. Residents enjoy mingling with neighbors at one of the community’s many wonderful amenities including the private clubhouse with a fitness area and bocce ball court and the community park that features a gazebo with grills that provides a beautiful outdoor location for gathering with family and friends—as well as community gardens and a dog park that offers an abundance of green space for the community’s four-legged residents.

In addition Bel-Aire’s amenities, residents enjoy easy access to West Cobb’s exciting entertainment, shopping and dining destinations including The Avenues at West Cobb as well as the historic Marietta Square that boasts eclectic shops, the seasonal Marietta Farmer’s Market and many festivals and concerts throughout the year.

Active Adult Community Enriches the Lives of Grandparents Buyers move to Windsong Manor at Seven Hills to be closer to son and grandchildren

ATLANTA – Like many of the homeowners at Windsong Manor, Randy and Donna Sickbert moved from their home in Loganville, Georgia to an active adult community to be closer to their son and grandchildren. They chose Windsong Manor at Seven Hills because it offered a convenient location near their family in Acworth, while providing a relaxing oasis full of like-minded people at the same stage of life.

 

“We really wanted to live in a neighborhood with people our age with similar interests,” Donna said. “You really feel like everyone is looking out for each other here. Everyone shares when they find good deals, great restaurants or travel tips. It’s nice that several of us help out with our grandchildren on a regular basis.”

 

Prior to moving to Windsong Manor, the Sickberts’ Loganville home was located 10 miles from shopping, dining and medical centers. Now, at Windsong Manor the couple is just minutes from a Publix, Kroger and Starbucks as well as doctor’s offices. In addition to being conveniently situated near necessities, the Sickberts’ new home is close to their son and grandchildren.

 

“Our son is off Wade Green Road, and that is only about 15 minutes away,” Randy said. “At our previous house, we would leave at 4 in the morning to beat traffic if they needed help with the kids, and it still took almost two hours to get them.”

 

A convenient location isn’t the only thing the Sickberts love about Windsong Manor. They were pleased to find a two-story, energy-efficient home with all lawn maintenance taken care of by the homeowner’s association.

 

“Even with two levels, we are still saving money on our utility bills and enjoy that perk,” Donna said. “We love everything about this house and community. It’s well maintained, and I love that we have woods behind us.”

 

The home design that the Sickberts chose features a private space downstairs that offers the convenience of a kitchenette and patio, which makes it the perfect floor plan for entertaining their family members from Indiana.

 

“My brother came for a couple of nights and stayed for a week, and we all had our private space,” Donna said. “It’s like a house on top of a house. This living situation would be convenient if we ever needed live-in help.”

 

The residents at Windsong Manor have full access to the Seven Hills Park that boasts an outdoor water park that offers a zero-entry saline pool, water play area and a large bowl slide. The park also features tennis and pickle ball courts, miles of walking paths, community gardens, a playground for the grandchildren and a clubhouse for regular community activities.

 

“Our community spends a lot of time socializing,” Donna said. “We are anxiously awaiting the completion of our private clubhouse. In the meantime, we meet at each other’s houses, local restaurants, on walks or at the pickle ball court.”

 

The Sickberts are happy that they now live in a maintenance-free community near their family Where Life’s a Breeze.

Homebuyers Work with Windsong to Refine the Design of a New Active Adult Plan

The Foster is a carefully-crafted home plan with a spacious loft at Heron Pond

ATLANTA – Heron Pond is an exquisite community offering the best in low maintenance living for today’s active adult. With five initial plans offered and none of them meeting the needs of Bob Rittle and Doreen Marshall, Windsong asked the couple to participate in refining the design of a new plan on the boards. Intrigued and excited to live at Heron Pond, Bob and Doreen began working with the Windsong team to bring this new plan to life.

“I initially liked the Buckley plan, but needed more private space for my office – upstairs preferably. I run an investment management company and need to be able to close out the world, focus and even work at 3 a.m. when the European market opens,” explained Bob. The Foster, with its larger loft area for Bob’s private workspace, was the perfect plan for the couple.

“I really enjoyed how responsive and proactive the Windsong team was as we worked together to craft a home that really suits our needs,” said Bob. “On several occasions, I would ask the building team for their input and they always offered thoughtful suggestions. The whole building team was just a delight to work with.”

The Foster plan boasts a spacious upstairs loft, a private space great for visiting grandkids or a private suite for a roommate or live-in assistant. With built-in accessibility features like step-less entry on the main level, lever handles and wider door and hall ways, this home has the best of both worlds. The mail level features a spacious owner’s suite, a study (or additional bedroom), two baths, an open living area with designer kitchen and island and easy access to a private courtyard retreat, great for entertaining outdoors. The loft features a bedroom, bathroom, additional storage and a bonus room.

The versatile Foster plan is thoughtfully designed for smart space planning. Starting at $349,000 and with only six home sites remaining for this plan, you’ll need to act now before they are all gone! A decorated Foster model home is scheduled to open soon.

Bob and Doreen moved to Heron Pond to be closer to Doreen’s granddaughters who attend
Kennesaw State University; they also wanted to be near the hiking opportunities in the North Georgia Mountains. “We enjoy exploring what God has created and getting out into nature,” said Doreen. “Heron Pond felt different because it seemed to truly be for ‘active’ adults. We enjoy that we can lock up and leave for an adventure at the drop of a hat!”

Bob and Doreen have made wonderful new friends who share their love of travel. Now, they are able to enjoy more of it due to the easier lifestyle at Heron Pond. For more information on living Where Life’s A Breeze, visit www.windsonglife.com.

Exciting Opportunities Awaits at Heron Pond New clubhouse is underway and Phase II is quickly selling in this popular community

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties is excited to announce the groundbreaking construction of the clubhouse at Heron Pond. On Tuesday, February 10, homeowners and future residents came out to celebrate this exciting news along with Windsong’s construction and sales team. But that’s not all that is happening at this popular community. Heron Pond, in Woodstock, is now open and selling in phase II. 

Following the ceremony, about 30 residents gathered for a reception at the Carson model home to continue to celebrate the up-and-coming clubhouse. Refreshments were served as homeowners had the opportunity to meet and chat with their neighbors. Already, residents are submitting requests for private events and for community gatherings at the new clubhouse which is scheduled to be completed for early summer, just in time for the warm weather.

The new two-story clubhouse will be used for many events including classes, parties or simply a place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee and chat with a neighbor. The main floor of the clubhouse will feature a coffee bar, exercise room, mail room, fireplace and a large balcony overlooking the breathtaking Heron Pond. A lower level will be available for larger events and entertaining. Enjoy grilling hamburgers on the patio or fishing at the pond. With a pond stocked with fish, residents are welcome to fish off the dock, or simply sit with your feet in the water and watch the visiting birds.

Heron Pond is a fantastic community for active adults to reside. Everything about this community exudes tranquility from the beautifully landscaped linear park to the walking paths along the pond. Imagine yourself sitting on blanket under a tree with a good book overlooking the pond in a quiet, relaxing setting.

Not only can you enjoy your time outdoors at Heron Pond, but buyers will also love to spend time indoors in one of our luxurious low maintenance homes. With 75 homesites, homeowners will be delighted to see the houses are well built and perfectly designed for the active adult lifestyle with features including step-free access and wide doorways. Currently, 26 residents have moved in with another 19 under contract, which means there are still 30 homesites to choose from! Just in time for spring move-in, stop by to visit the Foster on homesite 141 and the Carson on homesite 34.

Residents love being close to their families and friends in nearby cities including Kennesaw, Acworth, Roswell and Marietta. Enjoy free concerts and festivals just five miles down the road at Downtown Woodstock or go shopping at one of the many unique shops, boutiques and The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta.

Don’t Wait until Retirement to Enjoy Windsong’s Easy Lifestyle - New Bel-Aire residents describe their decision to move now instead of later

ATLANTA – When people think about an active adult community, many think about needing to retire first. Why wait for retirement to enjoy an easier lifestyle? That is exactly what homeowners Mike Kania, 56, and his wife Carol, 55, thought about before moving into their new home at Windsong Properties' Bel-Aire community in Powder Springs. Still having a few years before retirement, Mike and Carol say that moving into Bel-Aire has been one of the best decisions they have made.

“We wanted to leave our old neighborhood because our children are grown and out on their own,” explained Mike and Carol. “We were in a position to plan our future and thought about life’s changing situations. It’s a whole lot easier to move now than in 10 years or to rely on our children to move us.”

With their children out of their old home, Mike and Carol knew they were ready to leave their two-story behind and looked forward to a ranch-style home. They took this as an opportunity to downsize, organize and purge before moving into a new home. “That felt great! This single level home is so much easier to maintain, entertain and move around in. We are delighted to be able to enjoy this lifestyle sooner than later,” stated Mike and Carol. Choosing the Hampton floor plan, Mike and Carol enjoy the step-less entry and say that has made it easier for their 90-year-old father to comfortably visit.

Before moving in their new Bel-Aire home, Mike and Carol had visited the community on several occasions. “I remember we liked the way Bel-Aire felt and found ourselves coming to the community to walk around on the weekends,” stated Mike and Carol. “Every time we visited, we would end up in conversations with residents, some of which invited us into their homes. We appreciated how friendly everyone was. The sense of community here made us feel warm, like home.”

Quality of a home was important to Mike and Carol, and Windsong did not disappoint! “I have been impressed with the Windsong team and all the people that worked on this home,” Mike and Carol said. “You can feel the quality when you are inside. I appreciate the included details and the smart space planning. This home is not big, yet we have plenty of room.”

Now, Mike and Carol enjoy the easy Bel-Aire lifestyle from hanging out with their neighbors on the weekends and in the evening at the clubhouse to enjoying a nice walk to the dog park with their dog, Sophie. “Our friends realize the same advantages to being here, and now they are also building in Bel-Aire,” exclaimed Mike and Carol. “We love that living here is relaxing, we actually live Where Life’s a Breeze!”

Windsong Properties Promotes Kris Johnson to Sales Manager - New role provides new opportunities for the active adult builder

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties is proud to announce the promotion of Kris Johnson to Sales Manager. Overseeing all of the builder's communities, Kris is looking forward to working more closely with her team to ensure their active adult buyers find the home of their dreams.

 

“Kris has a complete dedication to our customers and to the company,” explains Mark Carruth, partner of Windsong Properties. “Her understanding of our home buyers, of our company sales process and of the Windsong culture prepares her to excel at training and leading our sales team to new heights, and to improve the homeowner experience from contract to closing.”

 

Kris has been with Windsong Properties for eight years as an on-site sales agent and started her new position on January 1, 2015. With her vast experience in real estate and active adult homebuilding, Kris is designated as a Senior Real Estate Specialist and is well respected by her fellow sales associates, the Windsong team and her homebuyers. “Effective communication is critically important in my new role with the company. I must be engaged and in the field daily to ensure our sales team has everything they need to achieve the company’s sales goals and objectives,” explains Kris. “I am looking at the needs of the sales team on a global level now rather than on a community level, and that brings an entirely new set of responsibilities and expectations."

 

In addition to being responsible for all of the builder's communities, including Heron Pond, Bel-Aire, Windsong Manor and Windsong at Seven Hills, Kris is also fully engaged in all aspects of new community development and start up. Kris enjoys working with a company with strong leadership that constantly displays the company’s core values on a daily basis. Now, Kris is excited to continue her growth with this team and looks forward to what the future has in store.

 

“Since my promotion, I have received an out-pouring of support and encouragement from colleagues, customers, homeowners and friends recognizing this career achievement,” said Kris. “It is really gratifying and humbling to know that so many people believe in me and my contributions to the company over the last eight years. This is a wonderful opportunity and I’m looking forward to my new role with great enthusiasm and optimism as part of the Windsong management team.”

The Johnson’s Build at Windsong Manor to be Closer to Grandchildren

The Johnson’s Build at Windsong Manor to be Closer to Grandchildren
Buyers move from the Midwest to the beautiful Seven Hills area of Dallas, Ga

 ATLANTA – Many active adults long to be close to their family and watch their grandchildren grow. Separated from their loved ones, Rick and Sue Johnson decided it was time to leave Colorado and head east to be involved in their grandchildren’s lives. Windsong Manor in Dallas, Georgia, provided the Johnsons with a great location close to their family, a spacious and detached ranch home for all of their needs and a sense of community.

 “Our son and daughter-in-law, who live in Villa Rica, were expecting their first baby and we wanted to be more active in her life than we had been able to with our grandson, who lives in Ashville, North Carolina,” stated Sue. Now they can more easily support Parker and attend some of his baseball games. “We are thrilled to be so much closer to them all; it’s a dream come true!” said Rick.

 The Johnsons were pleased to find a detached ranch home in a community of like-minded people at the same stage of life. “Finding a ‘community’ was really important to us, and we thoroughly enjoy our new friends here at Windsong Manor,” said Rick.

 The Johnsons love their low-maintenance ranch home with a finished terrace and accessibility features built-in. “Initially we thought we were ready for a single-level home, but it turned out we weren’t quite there yet,” said Sue. “The finished basement has been handy; we have additional space for entertaining with a great room and kitchenette. Also having moved from out-of-state, we have guests that come and stay several days and the terrace level offers them a private retreat.”

 The residents at Windsong Manor have full access to the Seven Hills Park. There an outdoor water park offers residents a zero-entry saline pool, water play area and a large bowl slide. The park also features tennis and pickle ball courts, miles of walking paths, community gardens, a playground for the grandchildren and a clubhouse for regular community activities.

 “We were delighted to be able to take our granddaughter, Isabella, to play at the pool at the Seven Hills Park this summer. It was such a delight to be there to witness her crawl for the first time,” explained the Johnsons. “The park is a wonderful place for family and offers many amenities we look forward to using.”

 The Johnsons said that they felt confident that they were in good hands with the Windsong team. “We were in frequent contact with our builder who was responsive to our questions and kept the process flowing smoothly; it made building from so far away easier for us.

Windsong Partners with Active Adult Buyers when Building Homes Windsong joins forces with the Andersons to build a dream home at Windsong Manor

When building a new home, buyers take a leap of faith that the process will go smoothly, they will be heard along the way and their home will meet their expectations. Windsong Properties understands this and rises to the challenge of each home partnering with home buyers to bring dreams to fruition. That is exactly what Mike and Melinda Anderson discovered when building their ranch home at Windsong Manor in Dallas, Georgia.

 

“We thought that we had our dream home in 2004 when we built a 4,500 square foot ranch home with basement on three acres in a gated mountain retirement communities in Jasper,” explained Mike.

 

At that time, the Andersons were not yet grandparents. Once their four grandchildren came along, the two knew they needed to move closer to their family in Paulding County. “Life changes when those little ones come along, and we wanted to be closer to them, as well as live closer to my 90-year-old mother-in-law,” continued Mike.

 

“From the first interaction with the sales agent to communication with the builder, we have been most impressed with the Windsong team who always made us feel that we were a partner in the process,” explained Mike. “They listened, addressed our concerns and were highly responsive.” After previously building three custom homes, the Andersons greatly appreciated the easy experience of working with Windsong Properties.

 

The Andersons were involved in meetings with the team, including stakeholders, where all plans and expectations were outlined and discussed. “I felt that we were always included and not just informed of what was going to happen,” continued Mike.

 

With the building process now behind them, the Andersons look forward to entertaining family, including four grandchildren, in their gorgeous home. Highlights include an open plan with large dining room and accessibility features, such as wider doors and hallways, a step-less entry and a built-in seat in the owner’s shower.

 

The Andersons are also ready to enjoy having access to the Seven Hills Park, where they envisioned bringing their grandchildren to play. The park features a zero-entry saline pool, water park, a playground, tennis and pickle ball courts and miles of walking paths and sidewalks run through the entire Seven Hills master plan.

 

“There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t tell Melinda I love our new home,” said Mike gratefully. “We have the Windsong team to thank for that, and I am delighted to say we finally live ‘Where Life’s A Breeze!’”

Windsong Properties' Heron Pond Makes Downsizing Easy

Active adults able to downsize without sacrificing quality or design at new low maintenance community in Woodstock

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties' Heron Pond makes downsizing from a family home to empty nest easy. Priced from the low $300,000s in a highly desirable Woodstock location, the community offers low maintenance, detached ranch homes with attention to detail, courtyard retreats and lawn maintenance included. That is exactly what impressed homeowners Larry and Teresa Etherton.

"We wanted to downsize, but we were not willing to sacrifice quality and personal touches," explained the Ethertons. "Our new home is customized and very elegant. We love it!"

The Etherton's road to downsizing began about two years ago when the West Cobb couple wanted to move closer to their oldest daughter and two granddaughters in Woodstock. At the time, everything was too far away. Then, their daughter told them about Windsong Properties' building a new community, Heron Pond on Highway 92.

"I remember when she told us that there was a 50-plus community being built near her," said Teresa. "I felt like we weren't ready for a retirement home, but the lifestyle sounded really great. We were tired of living in a typical neighborhood, where the homes are bigger, the traffic is heavier and there is just more to maintain."

After receiving a positive referral for Mark Carruth, co-owner of Windsong Properties, from their former builder and meeting with Steve Romeyn, co-owner, Andrew Coles, builder at Heron Pond, and Kris Johnson, the onsite agent, the Ethertons were impressed and knew they were in good hands.

Selecting the Carson floor plan, the couple worked with the team to incorporate the courtyard patio into the main living area to make room for a game room with pool table. Their outdoor living area is still large enough for a fire pit, pavers and water feature. Additionally, the home is easy to entertain friends and family. Their kitchen sits across the billiards room and makes it optimal to socialize with others in the living area.  

"We had to part with a lot of stuff when we went from 5,600 to 3,100 square feet, but it felt really good to let go of stuff we had been holding onto," said the Ethertons. "Our biggest concern was how to get our life into a smaller home, but it hasn't been as awkward as we feared. We love this place and how spacious this plan is."

Along with a gorgeous ranch home, the Ethertons are enjoying being able to lock-and-leave when traveling. "We set the alarm and go – with yard maintenance taken care of and a no-maintenance courtyard, we are free to travel and have an adventure," commented the Ethertons.

In addition to low maintenance living, amenities at Heron Pond include a clubhouse (coming soon), a pond-side walking trail and landscaped parks. Residents are also close to Downtown Woodstock, Historic Roswell, The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta, specialty groceries, original eateries and more. 

"Even Emma, our English lab, is really happy with this home, and we are excited to see how this community comes together," said the Ethertons. "We finally live ‘Where Life's a Breeze!'"

Along with a gorgeous ranch home, the Ethertons are enjoying being able to lock-and-leave when traveling. “We set the alarm and go – with yard maintenance taken care of and a no-maintenance courtyard, we are free to travel and have an adventure,” commented the Ethertons.

In addition to low maintenance living, amenities at Heron Pond include a clubhouse (coming soon), a pond-side walking trail and landscaped parks. Residents are also close to Downtown Woodstock, Historic Roswell, The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta, specialty groceries, original eateries and more. 

“Even Emma, our English lab, is really happy with this home, and we are excited to see how this community comes together,” said the Ethertons. “We finally live ‘Where Life’s a Breeze!’”

Windsong Properties Introduces New Floor Plan at Heron Pond

New active adult floor plan offers more flexible space

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties is thrilled to introduce its newest floor plan at Heron Pond in Woodstock. Priced from $349,000, the builder developed The Foster to offer more flexible space for active adult homeowners and their guests.

“Buyers will love The Foster floor plan,” explained Carrie Roeger, operations manager for Windsong Properties. “It is truly unique and a great option for those wanting to live on one level but have a private area for guests. Shoppers will enjoy the flexibility to use the finished loft area as their lifestyle demands.”

The plan features two bedrooms, three baths and a study (or third bedroom). On the main level, a welcoming foyer leads to a study, full bath and open kitchen and great room for easy entertaining. The designer kitchen includes an island and large pantry. The great room impresses with a stunning fireplace and dining space. The covered patio and private courtyard off the kitchen provide an outdoor oasis. Also on the main level is a luxurious owners’ suite with spa-like bath and walk-in closet.

Upstairs offers more space to use as needed. A loft opens to additional storage and a third bedroom with full bath and walk-in closet. For grandchildren to out-of-towners, this space is a retreat from the main level. With 2,471 square feet of air conditioned space, downsizing never felt so spacious.

The Foster is just one of Heron Pond’s signature floor plans. Others include The Allston, The Buckley, The Walcott, The Carson and The Durand. In addition to a selection of floor plans, each home is low maintenance and easily accessible with step-free entries, lever handles and larger door and hallways.

Community amenities include a gated entry, landscaped parks, a pond-side walking trail and a clubhouse that is breaking ground soon. Also, guest parking has been added throughout the community for convenience. Located just two miles west of Sandy Plains Road on Highway 92, Heron Pond is minutes from Downtown Woodstock, historic Roswell, The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta, specialty groceries, original eateries and more.

Homeowners Enjoy Easy Living at Windsong Manor

Low maintenance ranch homes built by Windsong Properties allow for less worry and more adventure

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties believes that the transition from family home to empty nest should be an enjoyable and exciting experience. The builder’s low maintenance ranch homes at Windsong Manor in Dallas, Georgia help improve the quality of life of its active adult buyers with easy living that allows for less worry and more adventure. 

For instance, homeowners LaVerne and Carl Abbott decided to live “Where Life’s A Breeze” because of their drive to travel. Before moving to Windsong Manor, the couple lived nearby on 65 acres that had been in Carl’s family since the 1830s. Though it was hard to part with, the Abbotts wanted something with less maintenance and more security to “lock-and-leave.”

“After shopping for a new home off and on since 2005, and ruling out ranch condos or anything small and attached, we saw an ad for Bel-Aire in West Cobb,” explained LaVerne. “We really liked Windsong’s low maintenance lifestyle and detached ranch homes with “aging in place” accessibility features that are built-in, such as wider door and hallways and step-less entry. I have had both of my knees replaced and steps were a challenge there for a while. I like the single-living, but Bel-Aire wasn’t the right fit for us.”

Then, it was suggested that they check out Windsong’s communities in Seven Hills. When they saw the Bentley model, the Abbotts knew they had found their new home at Windsong Manor. “We thought that we would “downsize,” but when we saw the spacious Bentley, our focus shifted from downsize to dream home,” said LaVerne.

The Abbotts enjoy their bright and open home that is backed up to the creek basin that added more preserved greenspace past their backyard. “It’s awesome to still have the feeling of living in the woods,” continued LaVerne. “These homes are really thoughtfully designed inside and out!”

Their Bentley includes a terrace level for LaVerne to have a sewing room and so that they could accommodate a live-in assistant if the need ever arises. This level also has a guest bedroom, bathroom, entertainment room with fireplace, a kitchenette and more storage. “It sounds like a lot, but hosting a quilting party or having friends stay with us in their own comfortable and private area is going to be wonderful,” said LaVerne. “The best thing is that we don’t have to use the basement and can live all on the main level.”

The main level features three bedrooms, two baths, a study, spacious great room with fireplace, gourmet kitchen with island, dining room and luxurious owner’s suite with sitting area, walk-in closets and a spa-like bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. “We can’t say enough amazing things about our builder Brian, our sales agent Gay-Lynn and Mike Lust, the sales manager who reworked the terrace level to suite our needs,” stated LaVerne. “The quality of our home is fantastic, and that’s coming from a couple of picky customers!”

The Abbotts also liked that the design process was simple. LaVerne even created a “New Home Board” on Pinterest and pinned their preferences from the Windsong Digital Design Center. When they showed up at the design center for their selections consultation, their samples were already laid out.

In addition to a gorgeous home, the Abbotts can take advantage of the exclusive clubhouse, walking paths, hiking opportunities along Little Pumpkinvine Creek or the award-winning Seven Hills Park with zero-entry saline pool, tennis courts, community gardens and more.

Plus, the couple gets to travel as they please. Last year, they left in mid-December for Christmas in Palm Springs and didn’t get home till March, traveling all over California and Arizona throughout the winter. This year, with less worry, they can go on even longer adventures!

Windsong Properties Builds to Bring Families Together

Home buyers at Windsong Manor relocate to be closer to children and grandchildren

ATLANTA - It is no secret that metro Atlanta is one of the top places to retire. When transitioning from a family home to empty nest, many choose to work with Atlanta's leading active adult home builder, Windsong Properties. Known for its unique blend of low maintenance living, style, amenities and superior customer service, the builder helps bring buyers closer to their families. This reigns true at Windsong Manor in Dallas, Georgia, where home buyers have come from all over the country to live Where Life's A Breeze, closer to their children.

Buyers have decided to start the next chapter of their lives in the height of luxury with distinctive and detached ranch plans with flexible space, Windsong's signature accessibility features and access to the amenity rich Seven Hills Park. Sue and Rick Johnson landed at Windsong Manor after deciding to relocate from Denver, Colorado to be closer to their kids.

"We really wanted an active adult community, and Windsong Manor was perfect for us," said Rick Johnson. "It's just 20 miles from our son, daughter-in-law and new granddaughter, plus it offered beautiful homes with neighbors in the same walk of life as us."

The Johnsons selected the Bentley floor plan with terrace because of its openness and room to have the whole family over. They plan to use the terrace level as recreation space for entertaining and as a guest area for when family visits from North Carolina, including their grandson.

Along with being closer to family, the Johnsons appreciated the smooth building process. "Everyone at Windsong was great to work with," explained Johnson. "They made it easy from our initial visit to closing. We are excited to move-in at the end of the month!"

Another pair of home buyers, Pam and Ken Newbury of Chattanooga, are excited about moving into their home this fall. They chose Windsong Manor because of the vitality at Seven Hills and the community's location between their daughter in Atlanta and son in Chattanooga.

"We loved the energy of the young families close by," said Pam Newbury. "Yet, we will still be tucked into a quiet active adult community - and no more lawn maintenance!"
The Newburys worked closely with Gay-Lynn Turner, the on-site sales consultant, throughout the process and now consider her a close friend. They loved that neighbors would stop by the model home to meet them during their visits to the community.

"It's going to be easy to make friends here," continued Newbury. "Most have relocated too, so there is already a common bond."

The Newburys selected the Bentley with terrace so that they would have room to do their favorite hobbies. Ken plans to have a woodworking shop, while Pam is planning to turn the guest room into a craft room.

In addition to a low maintenance home that was designed for retirement, the Newburys are looking forward to the Seven Hills Park which has an outdoor water park with water play area and large bowl slide, perfect for visiting grandchildren. The park also offers tennis courts, pickle ball, a clubhouse and a playground. Residents will also enjoy miles of sidewalks and walking paths woven throughout Seven Hills along with hiking along Little Pumpkinvine Creek.

Windsong Manor is minutes from modern conveniences, many neighboring small towns, the splendor of Lake Allatoona and the North Georgia Mountains, as well as the cultural activities Atlanta has to offer.

Windsong Properties Hosts Clubhouse Warming Party at Bel-Aire

Active adult builder held exclusive party to thank existing homeowners for their patience and patronage

ATLANTA – Windsong Properties recently held a successful clubhouse warming and homeowner appreciation event at its active adult community of Bel-Aire in Powder Springs. Exclusively for existing homeowners, 60 residents enjoyed a catered lunch and toured the new facility.

“We wanted to get our homeowners together to thank them for their patience and patronage during the construction process,” explained Steve Romeyn, co-owner of Windsong Properties. “We held a ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening of the clubhouse and to honor our first homeowners. The residents are excited to start using this new space for community-wide gatherings.”

The private clubhouse features a grand family-style gathering room with fireplace, entertainment system and space to set up several large tables as needed. The facility offers residents a game room, fitness room with cardio machines and free-weights and a catering kitchen. Outside, residents can socialize on the wrap-around covered patio with stone fireplace, rockers and dining tables.

“The opening of the clubhouse shows that the community has certainly come a long way since we acquired it,” said Romeyn. “We appreciate its earliest pioneering homeowners for taking the risk and sticking around to help make Bel-Aire a great place to call home.”

Graylyn and William Lee closed on the first home in December of 2007 when the community was started as Trinity Village. They witnessed the real estate down turn and are excited to see their community coming to fruition. Lucy and Gregory George were also invited to cut the ribbon as Windsong’s first home buyers.

“It’s great to see homeowners welcoming new buyers and showing them the Bel-Aire lifestyle,” said Carrie Roeger, operations manager at Windsong Properties. “This community with the feel of country living is really special and sales have proven that.”

Along with the new clubhouse, Bel-Aire features a large community park with a gazebo, grills, a dog park and community gardens. Residents enjoy walking paths, sidewalks, a nature trail and professionally maintained lawn maintenance.

Each home boasts a luxurious master suite on the main level, an open great room, flexible space, accessibility features and a private courtyard retreat. Parkside recently sold out and Hillside Phase II just started selling.
