BLYTHEWOOD – Within the last 90 days, developer DR Horton has started 40 new homes in Cobblestone Park, representing a capital investment of more than $20 million, according to Tony Hanson, DR Horton’s local manager.
Hanson told Blythewood Chamber of Commerce members at their June breakfast meeting that the local economy will also feel the longer-term benefit as new residents begin occupying those new homes in the months to come.
“I don’t think there’s a better place to be right now than Blythewood and Cobblestone Park,” Hanson said.
In addition to building homes, DR Horton has cleaned up undeveloped lots and ponds, planted trees and added fountains in Cobblestone. On the golf course, the clubhouse is undergoing some improvements and should re-open within the next 12 months. Starting in July, new golf carts will be delivered to Cobblestone Golf Club, which ranks among the top 30 courses in the state.
DR Horton is building homes in several price ranges, with entry level family-style homes starting in the $250,000-325,000 range, and luxury homes on and off the golf course in the $500,000-700,000 range. Amenity fees have been revamped to be competitive with those in other communities with similar amenities, Hanson said.
Hanson invited Chamber members to visit the Cobblestone Park community. Those wishing to visit the community should contact Diane Jones or Lisa Eckard in DR Horton’s sales office (333-8100).
