Neighborhood Description
* Homeowner will have access to all features and benefits of Greentree Ecologically Friendly Community. Greentree is an alternative subdivision integrating environmentally conscious development with energy-efficient homes while encouraging local self-sufficiency and a sense of neighborhood. * Landscape This 55-acre ecologically friendly development has a beautiful pond, two miles of nature walks and a community garden. The walking trails and easements have been developed without any chemicals or pesticides and using design technologies that have the least impact on the environment. * Other design features of Greentree include rainwater runoff being saved in retention ponds and the trees cut down to make the initial roads will be used to build a picnic shelter * The site has rolling topography ranging from 580 ft up to a 700 ft hilltop providing scenic views of the springs and pond. Along with various natural ecosystems from volcanic rock outcroppings, pine and hardwood forests with ferns and wild ginger, and several open fields, this development gives you a wonderful choice of home site locations. * Health and well-being As with all Walk Softly developments, Greentree gives priority to the overall health and well-being of the community. * Our developments strive to be pleasing, enjoyable and healthy places to live.
Market Area
* Quality of life The slower pace of life in Chatham County, North Carolina, is reminiscent of a time when friendship, a sense of neighborhood and community were commonplace in America. Enjoy this more peaceful environment as a pleasant change from the fast-paced, stressful lives we often lead. * Close to metropolitan areas All developments have an easy and accessible commute of about 45 minutes to Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Greensboro. Hwy. 64 towards Raleigh and Chapel Hill is a scenic four-lane road with very little traffic; Hwy. 421 is a similar four-lane road leading to Greensboro. * Excellent investment Price of land and construction costs are significantly lower here than in Wake, Guilford and Durham counties. With the expansion of Chapel Hill, Raleigh and Greensboro markets, land values will continue to increase in Chatham County making property here an excellent investment. * Small town feel The friendly communities of Chatham County have that small town experience of long ago and newcomers immediately feel welcome. * Strong alternative farming and building methods Students come from all over the United States to Central Carolina Community College (CCCC) to participate in the Sustainable Farming program, which is dedicated to the development of environmentally sound farming enterprises; and Sustainable Building and Development programs with similar sustainability values. * Siler City Arts Incubator Several beautiful turn-of-the-century (last century that is!) buildings are being lovingly restored to house the arts incubator project. Artists from around the county are moving to Siler City - potters, painters, world-class guitar maker, cabinet/wood turners; jewelers, weaving and basket makers are some of the featured artisans.
