While there is still room for new construction, the first phase was begun in 1976.
Many different builders have offered homes for sale here over the years. A large percentage
of homes were built custom for the owners. As a result, there are not identical homes, but
almost all are individual. Size, maturity, and price range widely. Click Here to see some recently sold properties from the
