We do want to be closer to Meggison than the turnpike though, so our location choices will be limited. Our agent keeps us updated, and told us recently that when she and her husband were in Richmond recently at night the frogs and other critters were so loud they completely drowned out the turnpike noise. We love nature sounds. 😊
The lots to build on in Richmond sold in minutes, with upwards of 30 plus names on a list per lot, either on the preserve, or near the turnpike. So you may not have a choice where you get to buy in Richmond, but be very happy you if get a home.

So those who lost the lottery to build in Richmond, now will be on the lists as each section of spec homes are released. The amount of newly started spec homes looks to be about 15 per day.

Richmond is moving quickly, the designer lots to build on should start in couple of weeks.

Pitch and putt looks very close, but can’t imagine it opening until the construction is not so crazy. Fun fact there is a walled site that a home sits on near the bridge and turnpike, not owned by the villages.
