There is a quaint, sleepy little town right outside of Jacksonville North Carolina known as Maysville, and it is about to be awakened by a development group planning a traditional neighborhood development (TND) on 200 acre’s nestled around three beautiful lakes. For those who have seen it, they say, “it is some of the most spectacular property they have ever seen”.
The Lakes On The White Oak will draw the attention of locals familiar with what has long been known as the ‘fishing lakes’. It will excite active adults and young families wanting to live in a ‘active’ community offering fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and hiking 24/7. And, the Lakes will undoubtedly be on the ‘A’ list for those baby boomers seeking a second home in a coastal area close to the beach and ocean, yet safely tucked away from seemingly devastating storms that come with living on the edge of the ocean.
Carolina South Builders located in Jacksonville North Carolina and known for their quality construction purchased the 200 acres realizing such a ‘magnificent’ find would require a great deal of thought and land planning. They wanted to ensure that something so unique, so spectacular, so back to nature would result in the absolute ‘best land use’ possible while maintaining the integrity of the site – it’s natural beauty.
After touring many different communities throughout the Southeast they decided on a traditional neighborhood development with a ‘low country’ theme for the homes. The definition of a traditional neighborhood automatically denotes the neighborhood will offer lots of amenities like gathering areas, playgrounds for children, walking paths, outdoor pavilions, kayak and canoe launches all ‘naturally’ transitioned into the neighborhood. And in keeping with the tradition of this type of development, the homes typically do not have large, hard to maintain yards but more naturally landscaped, easy to maintain lots. The streets will be slightly narrower creating a ‘slow down’ in traffic making it a safer community in which to live. To top it all off, there will be a lavish clubhouse with a fitness center and swimming pool, perfect for socializing with your neighbors and friends. This will undoubtedly be the focal point of the neighborhood.
“We have three gorgeous lakes providing the most awesome natural setting you will ever see in a coastal area like ours”, says James Maides, Developer. Two of the lakes are spring fed and once used for quarrying rock and the third lake is much larger as it feeds into the White Oak River, which leads you right to the Atlantic Ocean.
Separating the two spring fed lakes is a landmass that is just wide enough for a nature trail, a road to get you to and fro, and in a few areas, homes. Imagine building a home nestled between two lakes? “Our architect said he had simply never seen property that offered a homeowner the option of owning a lot literally between two lakes only a stone’s throw away from each other,” said Danny Whaley, Developer. “This is truly a homeowners dream place.”
“We wanted to make an investment in the community that would be appreciated for years and years to come, and the Lakes On The White Oak is for us, and we believe anyone in search of a living environment unsurpassed for its natural beauty and amenities, the perfect investment,” said Elijah Morton, Developer.
