-Who We Are-

There is a place where your work life unwinds and your home life sets sail.  The Village at Emerald place is where that happens.  A village is a place of simple, uncomplicated living; a place where neighbors know each other well and take care of each other; where serenity and safety are treasured by the people who live there.

 

  In today's complex and fast-moving world, village life is a thing of the past.  The irony of technology is that the things that we create to improve our lives often make us busier:  we spend more time in cars, more time at the computer; and less time enjoying our families and simple peaceful luxuries.

 

  Bayview Holdings has built the answer at Emerald Bay.  When you enter the gates of this peaceful little Village, the roomy porches of the graceful homes, white picket fences, trails and park-like landscape invite you to visit.  Inside your home, the elegantly-appointed interior and dramatic lake views embrace you; it is a perfect place for anything from entertaining to meditating.

 

  But this serene village hides wonderful secrets. 

 

  Behind the tidy exteriors, these homes offer plenty of room for living and entertaining:  they can be built to provide over 5,000 square feet of luxurious space without changing the homey feel of the village.  The award-winning floor plan is cleverly designed to adapt to any lifestyle.  For those who love to mingle with lots of friends the main level, its stately columns, dramatic archways, balconies, exterior deck, and elegant lighting provide a flow which encourages conversation to cement and deepen friendships.  For a more informal setting, the lake level can offer gathering areas, a wine-tasting room, billiards area, and a wet bar.  Lake level french doors encourage the party to expand to the patio, where companions can enjoy the evening air and a more private lakeside setting.  If movies are your passion, invite friends over to enjoy your favorite film in a state-of-the-art theater with surround sound and soft theater seating. 

 

  Unlike so many possessions, a Village home will never master you by demanding your time to maintain it.  These homes are designed to be maintenance-free.  The finest siding and roofing materials ensure these homes will last for many years to come.  POA employees mow the lawns, maintain the dock that has your privately-deed boat slip, keep the trails and landscaping clean and attractive.  The way Bayview sees it you should be able to spend all of your time enjoying your large, luxurious home rather than mowing lawns and painting.

 

  And we don't think you should have to give up the conveniences of the latest technology to enjoy a slower-paced, relaxing life.  Beneath a Village home is smart technology.  All home systems can be integrated to allow you to control lighting, heating, cooling, security systems, voice messaging, through a single interface - from anywhere.  A smart home owner doesn't need to wonder if the lights were left on while boarding a plane for somewhere else.  Check the house from your laptop; if the lights are on, turn them out - from your laptop.  Smart home technology allows you to enjoy the peace of the Village even when you're not there. 

 

  If you're one of the lucky people who telecommute, a Village home is perfect for you.  Smart home technology connects you to everything you need so you can interact with a busy world without being busy yourself.

 

  So let your life set sail.  In your Village at Emerald Bay home, you can have it all.
