Heron Bay Golf & Country Club Henry County’s Number One Selling Community

You may be wondering why communities succeed when others fail - well there’s an answer in the data. According to figures from SmartNumbers, Inc., the bulk of Atlanta’s successful communities are large-scale master-planned neighborhoods.

Minerva Properties‘ Heron Bay Golf & Country Club in Henry and Spalding counties is just one great example of a community that continues to see sales and growth.

In fact, Heron Bay was the number one selling community in Henry County for the fourth consecutive year with 110 closings in 2007. An additional 18 closings were captured in the Spalding County neighborhoods of Heron Bay in 2007.

These figures place Heron Bay in the Top Eight communities for the entire Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area for single family homes.

Heron Bay was named the “Community of the Year” in 2005 by the Greater Atlanta Homebuilders Association, and awarded the 2006 Grand Award for Outstanding Development by the Georgia Urban Forest Council for its efforts in tree preservation.

The community, located along the shores of the 1,100 acre Cole Reservoir, just 30 minutes south of Atlanta, offers an 18-hole Canongate golf course, a three-pool aquatic center with kid friendly water features, seven miles of walking trails, a lighted tennis center and multi-purpose play field and a 5,000 square foot community lodge with fitness center.

Heron Bay features numerous neighborhoods offering a diverse selection of home styles from the area’s top building companies such as DR Horton, Pulte Homes, Ryland Homes, John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods, Brayson Homes, Paul Thomas Homes and an impressive list of local custom builders. Homes are priced from the High $100’s to over $1 million. Heron Bay has low maintenance homesites as small as 6,000 square-feet with age-targeted villas for active adults. Its traditional family neighborhoods have home sites ranging from ¼ to ½ acre and the elegant estate homes in the custom neighborhoods are on ½ - 1 ½ acre home sites, many offering spectacular views of the golf course or lake.

Heron Bay encourages neighbor interaction with a very active community association that hosts regular homeowner events such as poolside luaus, holiday parties, wine tastings, and trivia nights.

An urgent care clinic, pharmacy and bank recently opened at Town Center at Heron Bay, the community’s retail village, which will offer a mix of retail and office, including restaurants, a salon, cleaners and more.
