THE RESIDENCES AT BULLE ROCK NAMED LAND DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL'S "PROJECT OF THE YEAR"
HAVRE DE GRACE, Md. (Oct. 11, 2007) – The Residences at Bulle Rock, the area's #1 selling planned community, was named 2007 Project of the Year at the recent Community Development Awards of Excellence ceremony hosted by the Land Development Council (LDC) of the Home Builders Association of Maryland (HBAM).
The LDC awards recognize development professionals who provide superior and creative development projects that are sensitive to the community and make appropriate use of the existing natural elements.
With the slogan, "Life Imitates Vacation," The Residences at Bulle Rock is a resort-style community under development by Manekin, LLC; Clark Turner and H&S Development Corporation in Havre de Grace, Md. The community is being built around the five-star Bulle Rock Golf Course, home to the McDonald's LPGA Championship and Maryland's #1 public golf course.
Upon completion, the gated community will comprise approximately 2,000 condos, villas and single-family homes built by Clark Turner Signature Homes, D.R. Horton, NVHomes, Ryan Homes and Ryland Homes. All homes will feature first-floor owners' suites, open floorplans, vaulted ceiling, garages and additional amenities for luxury living.
The community's social and recreational centerpiece is the 37,000-square-foot Residents' Club, which features indoor and outdoor pools, a cardiovascular health and wellness center, tennis and bocce courts, a cyber café and much more.
In a concerted effort to be sensitive to the natural environment, the developers saw to it that over 50 percent of the total community is preserved open space, which includes wetlands, streams, steep slopes and contiguous forest stands.
"Several important design characteristics also were employed to ensure that all 26 neighborhoods were separate, yet interconnected," said Brenda Desjardins, a spokeswoman for the community. "This provides a unique experience when driving or walking through this community, as no homes front directly on the main thruways."
"The LDC award reinforces what our residents and purchasers have been telling us: that The Residences at Bulle Rock offers superior design, product and amenities throughout," she added.
In addition to The Residences at Bulle Rock's receiving the top project award, its developer also received top honors. Manekin, LLC President and CEO Richard Alter was named 2007 Developer of the Year.
