If you can appreciate a prestige location, this is it. We are exploring home designs with one of the area's finest builders with the objective of maximizing the value of this rare location. Our first choice at this early stage is a Southern Living Design Collection home very similar to one of the model homes at the sales office near the Ford's Colony entrance. Total price including the lot is expected to be around $850,000. If you are interested in this property, we can still start from scratch with your ideas and make it the home of your dreams.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <IMG SRC="13480e00.jpg" border=0 width="640" height="480" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> <B>Our site at the corner of Ford's Colony Drive and Edward Wyatt Drive in December</B></div> <bR> <div> Ford's Colony has been rated the Number One planned community in the United States. With a wonderful family neighborhood and the many attractions of Colonial Williamsburg, it's easy to understand why so many top executives come here to retire or build a second home. If you like to entertain friends and family, this is the place to be.</div> <div>  </div> <div> Championship golf courses designed by Robert Maples, Colonial Williamsburg, ocean beaches nearby, deep sea fishing, Chesapeake Bay sportfishing, Busch Gardens, Jamestown, Yorktown, Norfolk Naval Base and colonial plantations are all right here. Your grandchildren will want to stay with you all summer long.</div> <bR> <div> Here, within Ford's Colony, are over 20 social clubs, tennis courts, swimming pools, pond fishing, miles and miles of bike and walking paths, gourmet dining and more, all in a secure gated community with 24 hour patrols and enforced 25 mph speed limits. No rushing about here, and no strangers wandering around your neighborhood. Just a laid back atmosphere of quiet streets with gracious homes mostly ranging in value from the mid $300,000's to the $900.000's. Of course there are many homes well above $1,000,000.</div> <div>  </div> <div> Beautiful trees and flowers, that's what you will remember most about Ford's Colony. The long growing season allows successful cultivation of a wide variety of flowering and fruit bearing species. Several varieties of magnolia are seen here along with numerous other warm climate trees. Ford's Colony has adopted the crepe myrtle as the community tree and has an ongoing program to promote planting them. Expert help is always available to assist and encourage residents with flowers and landscaping.</div> <bR> <div> Your Ford's Colony neighbors have gathered here from all over the country.
