A New Chapter for a North Wilmington Landmark
This community is more than just a housing development; it is the thoughtful repurposing of over 100 acres of prime Brandywine Hundred real estate. It bridges the gap between the suburban peace of Shipley Road and the busy commercial hub of Concord Pike.
Connected Living: A defining feature of this community is its pedestrian and bicycle connectivity. Residents can walk through the neighborhood directly into the Concord Square Shopping Center, making a morning trip for coffee or a grocery run possible without ever getting in a car.
Preserved Greenery: Roughly 44 acres of the former club grounds have been dedicated to open space and educational use, ensuring that the "park-like" feel of the original country club remains a part of the residents' daily view.
Boutique Neighborhood Feel: The residential portion is divided into distinct sections, separating the luxury rental apartments from the owner-occupied villas and single-family homes. This creates a quiet, neighborly environment for those who own their property.
Strategic Access: Designed to manage traffic while providing ease of movement, the single-family homes primarily take access from Shipley Road, while the commercial and apartment side flows toward the shopping centers on 202.

What You Get ??
Where this stands. Nothing is released for sale here yet and no homes have been built. The builder is taking names for an interest list and has not published prices, floor plans, homesite counts or a fee. We have deliberately not filled those gaps with guesses. Call us at 302-549-5164 and we will tell you what has actually been released.
What is confirmed. The community is planned for luxury villas and single-family homes at 2822 Shipley Road, Wilmington, in New Castle County, with access to US-202. That is the extent of what the builder has committed to in writing.
The fee. No HOA fee has been published. On a community that mixes villas with single-family homes, the fee and what it covers often differ between the two, so ask us for both in writing rather than assuming one figure applies.
The amenities. None have been announced. Do not assume the siteâs golf course history means golf access comes with a home here. Ask us what, if anything, is actually included before you count on it.
What to ask us. Whether any homesites have been released, villa versus single-family pricing and fees, what the amenity plan actually is, and realistic timing. Call us at 302-549-5164.
