Which communities are featured in 'The Joy Lives Here' home tour?
Caldwell McConathy:
Towne Lake: At Towne Lake, residents enjoy waterfront living at its finest. With resident access to a 300-plus acre lake, a private island, a lake house featuring an incredible fitness studio, two sandy beaches, a waterpark, lazy river, miles of trails and an array of amenities, this community offers endless opportunities for recreation and relaxation. With 9 premier builders, a variety of floorplans, multiple price points and an active adult section called Heritage Cove with homes specifically designed for those over 55, there truly is something for everyone.
The Highlands: The Highlands is all about elevating your lifestyle and getting outdoors to explore nature. Reminiscent of a national park, the densely treed setting and endless recreational opportunities combines the great indoors with the great outdoors. With Highland Pines, a championship 18-hole golf course, 30+ miles of hiking trails, sparkling on-site recreational lakes, multiple parks and more, residents have access to world-class amenities with more underway. The 13 award-winning builders in this community showcase a true range of home plans and designs to fit all lifestyles.
Chambers Creek: Chambers Creek is unlike any other active adult community in the region, with its rolling hills, miles of trails, on-site vineyard, focus on wellness and so much more. With a Tom Lehman-designed golf course and direct access to Lake Conroe from a private marina, there is no shortage of fun in Chambers Creek. Just minutes from world-renowned medical facilities, endless shopping and premier dining, Chambers Creek provides the perfect backdrop to write your next chapter in life with new friendships, moments with family and vibrant adventures.
Mission Ranch: Twice voted Best Master-Planned Community in College Station, Mission Ranch is an exquisite escape of wooded seclusion, yet close to the action at Kyle Field in College Station. A scenic central lake, winding trails, resort-style pool, pickleball courts and brand new The Ranch House amenity center offers a place to unwind, connect with nature and savor life's simple moments. Mission Ranch offers exceptional living in the heart of Aggieland.
Cadence Creek: Cadence Creek is redefining carefree living with exquisite apartment homes and resort-style amenities designed specifically for those 55 and older. Spacious one- and two-bedroom apartment homes and cottages with yards offer upscale features and a maintenance-free lifestyle. With Spring and Cypress locations, residents can live close to the grandkids while still enjoying the activities, friendships and amenities they desire.
How does Caldwell Communities incorporate the concept of "joyful living" into the home tour experience?
Caldwell McConathy: As soon as you walk into any of our Welcome and Visitors Centers, you’ll be greeted with colorful streamers flanking our communities, captivating signage capturing some of the joyful moments within our community and personal anecdotes from our residents describing how everyday feels like a celebration within our communities.
How can residents benefit from the Caldwell Communities focus on community?
Caldwell McConathy: It’s the greatest compliment as a developer to see neighbors become lifelong friends through our lifestyle programming and through making memories at our resort-style amenities. We strive to build community in every sense of the word with the way we design our best-in-class amenities and the way we intentionally program our resident events to provide experiences for all ages. It personally brings us no greater joy than seeing our residents become lifelong friends and create community together from residents moving from out of state, to new moms craving community, to grandparents living closer to their grandkids, the examples are endless.
