Last night we joined friends for a Cowboy Inspired Buffet and Live Entertainment provided by the Jr. Wilson Band at Heritage Shores. Linda Chick, one of our  Agents, and her husband Jack live at Heritage Shores after moving here from Maryland 9 months ago. They are accomplished “hand dancers”. It’s very similar to the West Coast Swing or the Shag (beach dancing) I discovered as Jack taught me a few steps. Debbie Shearer, another transplant from Maryland, and her husband Joe, also live at Heritage Shores. When Debbie finishes some  Delaware real estate training, she too will be joining Active Adults Realty.

We had a great time and I was really impressed with the band. These guys were good and their repertoire went from country to the Beatles. Take a look -

At the Easton Waterfowl Festival I enjoyed the Wine Tasting Tent! Tasted some wonderful local wines and picked up a brochure on the Chesapeake Wine Trail. If I am lucky enough to have a day free on a day as nice as yesterday, I know what I am going to do – ask Bill to drive and travel the Chesapeake Wine Trail.

I tasted some great wines from Dove Valley Winery and particularly liked the Pinot. They had a Holiday Barrel Tasting on December 3rd from 6 pm – 9 pm with Live Music. Sounds like a fun evening. I also enjoyed the wines offered by St. Michael’s Winery and look forward to a trip to see the vineyard.

New wineries are opening soon and I tasted some nice wines from Layton’s Chance Winery. Take a chance, find your designated driver and visit the wineries on the Chesapeake Wine Trail!

They like to say that Heritage Shores is a great “Daytripping Location” and it is. Located at the intersection of Rt. 404 and Rt. 13, you can get just about anywhere on the Eastern Shore or in Coastal Delaware in about an hour or less.

Great news! Golf carts are now allowed for use around the community! You have no idea how many of our clients have asked if they could bring their golf carts with them when they retire to Heritage Shores, Delaware’s Best Master Planned Community. A lot of those people are calling from The Villages or thought about retiring to Florida at one time.

Heritage Shores is the only active adult community in Delaware with its own Championship 18-hole Golf Course and now you can have your own golf cart! I wonder how the residents will customize their golf carts? We’ll look forward to bringing you photos as the new carts are spotted.

New golf course home sites with pond views have also been released and we have the details. Perfect for several models of new single family home styles, the location is fantastic. If you want a pond view and an affordable new home, now is the time to contact us for more information.

On Sunday, September 11th several hundred residents were privileged to attend a moving event at the clubhouse to recognize the residents that served in the military.  Also included were the police, firemen/women and other service members that serve in Bridgeville.  A very informative slide show was presented along with a great singing group that sang patriotic songs and a bagpiper that played taps.  It was a very moving presentation and there were very few dry eyes in the room.

The Heritage Shores Community recently hosted an outdoor concert at the clubhouse.  Music was provided by “The Beach Bumz”.  Residents and guests danced to the songs of Jimmy Buffet and the Beach Boys.  It was a beautiful evening and the weather cooperated with a nice breeze.  The limbo contest created a lot of laughs and some of the age 55+ participants were amazing.  A good time was had by all.

If you lived here, you could be having this much fun!

There’s only one way to prove that the market has improved and that is with actual sales data. I know how busy we have been all year long and I know that we have sold several of the resale homes that been on the market at Heritage Shores. Well, here is the rest of the story:

4 Resale Homes have already sold and settled in 2011 and 3 more are Under Contract. (more…)

On July 21st, Heritage Shores hosted a Skin Analysis.  Nanticoke Health Services used a  sophisticated machine that combines black-light blue lightening with magnification for analyzing skin conditions. The Skin Analysis Machine (SAM) discovers conditions not visible to the naked eye, such as blemishes, congestion under the skin, dehydration and degeneration of the skin.  The technician stressed the importance of using sun screen and visiting a dermatologist on a regular basis.  Many residents who took advantage of this screening were very happy to have Nanticoke Health Services make this available to Heritage Shores residents.

We thought you might enjoy taking a tour of some of the amenities at Heritage Shores. Take the tour!

There was music and dancing and Box Wine Tasting on Friday evening, July 15th at the Heritage Shores  Club.  The Band was MPSteel, a Steel Drum Duo, and it looks like a good time was had by all!
