New condo community coming to Fayetteville

Harvest Communities, LLC has announced construction of a single-level, ranch style condominium community in Fayetteville. The community, known as The Village at Gingercake, is located on Gingercake Road, less than two miles from the center of downtown Fayetteville and will consist of 68 homes as well as a beautifully equipped 3,000 sq. ft. clubhouse with fitness center and a large heated pool and sundeck.

The site, located one block North of Ga. Highway 54 on Gingercake Road, consists of 17.2 level acres and 17 four-unit buildings. Exterior construction will be of stone and wood and will present an appearance similar to a large, single family home with high-pitched rooflines and round-top palladium windows.

Two floorplans consisting of a two bedroom plan of approximately 1545 sq. ft. and a three bedroom design of 1694 sq. ft. will each offer a completely enclosed, heated and cooled and finished veranda that adds an additional 200 sq. ft.

Site preparation has already begun with completion of streets, utilities and all other infrastructure expected by early summer. Building construction will then begin with the first homes expected to be available by the fall.

Harvest Communities, which is affiliated with Epmark, Inc., one of the Nationís premiere developers of single level condominium communities, currently has The Village of Ashwood, an eighty-six unit community in Chattanooga under construction as well other planned sites in pre-development. Chuck Bernstein and Chris Amos, partners in Harvest Communities, both have extensive experience in the development, construction and management of active adult communities.

According to Amos, “The ranch-style, single level homes are mould breaking. Classic architectural touches such as arched windows, panel doors, and spacious, open floor plans give traditional charm a fresh new presence. Great rooms blend the stateliness and formality of cathedral ceilings with the welcoming warmth of glass-and-brass-door fireplaces. The designs in our Classic and Cathedral Collections are so uncommon, in fact, they are protected by U.S. patents and copyrights.”

The carefully controlled scale of the neighborhood, the orientation of homes on the site, and lush landscapes with abundant trees, shrubs and flowers, give the community the atmosphere of an intimate Village.

Each two and three bedroom home has an oversized, attached two-car garage, the placement of which maximizes privacy and conveys the look and feel of an up-scale single-family neighborhood. Expansive floor plans with ample strategic storage space enhance the inherent ease and convenience of ranch-style living. Marks of graciousness and good taste are evident everywhere — from the ceramic tile entry to the rich wood kitchen cabinets, from the six-panel embossed doors to the ornamental light fixtures, and from the deep pile, wall-to-wall carpeting to the full array of sparkling kitchen appliances.

Light-filled enclosed verandas provide both access to and views of the natural beauty of the surroundings. And homeowners in The Village at Gingercake can enjoy those surroundings year-round without a single worry or responsibility for their continued upkeep and maintenance. A professional maintenance team will keep each home looking picture-perfect and appreciating in value by making all needed exterior repairs and doing all the painting, landscape maintenance and lawn care.

Freedom from those tasks is a standing invitation for owners and residents to join friends in the community’s outstanding social/recreational/fitness complex. Whether cooling off with a dip in the pool on a sizzling summer afternoon, football-partying in the smartly furnished lounge, or working up a healthy sweat in the fully-equipped fitness center, homeowners will enjoy the deep satisfaction of knowing they chose the ideal condominium in the ideal community: a superbly crafted home that enriches the carefree life with style.

The Village at Gingercake is conveniently located close to fine shopping, restaurants, and entertainment and is only minutes from the center of historic downtown Fayetteville. The Village at Gingercake provides a quality of life that is classically elegant, with a natural beauty that is naturally breathtaking.
