Wednesday, May 9, 2001 Front porches, sidewalks making a comeback at Highland Park Residents of Highland Park Estates, the first residential development of its size with new zoning rules requiring minimum 1.6-acre lots, are enjoying the neighborhood from their front porches. Dan Petry, developer of the 40-home subdivision, believes homeowners are longing for the "old Main Street look" in their choice of a place to live. The theme for the neighborhood is "Southern Traditional" with five-foot sidewalks, winding streets, front porches, street lights and a play park. Located in Sharpsburg at the intersection of Fischer Road and Minix Road, the proximity to Peachtree City, Newnan, I-85 and the airport is perfect. Homeowners can enjoy country living without the long commute. TradeMark Builders, Inc., owned by Petry, encourages its buyers to bring their plans or pick a TradeMark design. The home-building philosophy for TradeMark Builders is "building quality homes for today's educated buyer." Each custom home Petry builds is distinguished by his attention to detail and the lasting quality of each home. Highland Park Estates has the environment and affordability not usually found in the custom home market. "TradeMark Builders has been building in Coweta and Fayette counties for some time and has found with the larger minimums for residential lots we were led to exactly what residents want in Highland Park Estates," Petry said.
