BUYERS GRAVITATE TOWARDS MAINTENANCE-FREE LIFESTYLE

Resort-style living in a maintenance-free community means more time for what people like most—having fun. Whether it’s a round of golf, dinner with friends at the clubhouse or a quick boat ride to some of the best fishing on the East Coast, Oak Bluff at Osprey Cove brings together all that St. Marys and this premier private club community has to offer. This new maintenance-free neighborhood also has a collection of exciting new home designs at some of the best prices ever at Osprey Cove.

The Cottages at Oak Bluff are designed for folks that are ready to choose quality time over tending to the yard.  It’s the perfect way to escape to a slower pace of life in Southeast Georgia and have more time to enjoy the amenities available at Osprey Cove.

The few lucky residents of The Cottages at Oak Bluff can leave the yard work to the professionals. This exclusive offering has just 28 homesites in a beautiful woodland preservation setting. Seasonal residents, second home buyers and those wanting to enjoy a club community with a robust social life can find all this and more behind the gates of Osprey Cove, named one of the “100 Best Master-planned Communities” by Where to Retire magazine in 2007.

Buyers are increasingly choosing maintenance-free homes for the convenience and the affordability, according to surveys by the National Association of Realtors and the National Association of Home Builders. The Cottages at Oak Bluff are anticipated to share the same success as Osprey Cove’s previous maintenance-free neighborhood, The Sanctuary.

The detached single-family homes by W. H. Gross Construction feature homesites up to half an acre in size which is larger than the typical maintenance-free neighborhood, according to Wilson. She notes that the neighborhood is also surrounded by woodlands and preserve areas. The low country architecture has front and rear porches to take in the coastal scenery and interior upgrades include granite, custom cabinetry and much more. Homes with homesites are base priced from the mid $200s to $350,000 and include complete landscape maintenance and a neighborhood irrigation system.

The Cottages at Oak Bluff are the perfect choice for active adults in the Jacksonville area looking for an alternative location that is still within easy distance to the city. Osprey Cove is less than five minutes from Exit 1 on I-95, 20 minutes to the international airport and 40 minutes to downtown Jacksonville and the stadium.
