Aldie, Virginia – August 10, 2010 – Creighton Farms, an exclusive residential golf community located in Virginia’s historic Loudoun County, has announced an exciting new section it calls The Enclave. Designed and developed by award-winning builder Apex Custom Homes, it features one-of-a-kind, French-inspired homes that are both elegant and designed for everyday living.. Picture Louis XIV at Versailles and the joie de vivre of the courtly lifestyle transplanted here to the rolling Virginia horse and hunt country. The Enclave will offer the chance to enjoy a relaxed, private lifestyle that hearkens back to the refined era of garden parties at court – but with all the modern amenities one would expect from Northern Virginia’s most celebrated resort lifestyle community. Each Enclave residence reflects an architectural heritage that has its roots in the French countryside, with elegant touches throughout and open spaces that are perfect for families and gatherings with friends.
Created by Apex Custom Homes, The Enclave will consist of 13 homes, each nestled on 3+ acres of wooded or open land. Named one of America’s Top 100 Custom Builders by USArchitecture Magazine, Apex works hand in hand with homeowners to create masterpieces replete with all the special touches, craftsmanship and detail that set each home at The Enclave apart. Families will appreciate all the beauty and serenity of Creighton Farms, with a choice of home locations that offer unmatched privacy and intimacy – all within steps of all the existing and planned amenities of The Club at Creighton Farms.
The majestic designs by Apex Custom Homes let you fully customize your low-maintenance home with only a 6-month build time, allowing more time to revel in the little things life has to offer. Creighton Farms is located just 55 minutes from downtown Washington D.C. and even closer to other destinations including Herndon (20 minutes), Fairfax (25 minutes), McLean (35 minutes) and Arlington (45 minutes).
“Today, people demand value, stability and a variety of options in the homes that they’re purchasing for their families- that is why we chose to work with Apex Custom Homes on their new neighborhood, The Enclave,” said David Southworth, President and CEO of Southworth Development. “Our vision of Creighton Farms has always included giving people a choice of sections and neighborhoods in our world-class community, coupled with superior service and amenities, all of which make Creighton Farms a place where families can enjoy being together for generations to come.”
Since its purchase in 2009 by an affiliate of the Newton, Mass.-based Southworth Development LLC, Creighton Farms has experienced many milestones, including the groundbreaking of a new 34,000 sq. ft. Clubhouse coupled with an increase in membership of The Club at Creighton Farms by over 100%; a 5,000-square-foot Pavilion addition to the existing Golf House where members and their guests may enjoy outdoor dining and events; a new gatehouse located on Watson Road; a new state of-the-art golf maintenance facility; a newly renovated Sales Center; new homes being built — a total of 9 lots sold or otherwise under agreement — and the welcoming of the first residents into the community.
