Construction at Flint Pond Estates is Now in Full Gear

Construction at Flint Pond Estates is now at full gear. The main roadway binder is in place and framing of the first four of six buildings in Phase 1 is now complete. “This is a great accomplishment considering that the first building permit was issued last September” said Mr. Paul Germano, the construction supervisor at Westwood Associates. The foundation of the last two buildings slated for Paxton Court is scheduled to be poured the end of February 2009. These two buildings offer great water views of Flint Pond as they are situated more than 50 feet above the water level. With the construction of the two additional buildings at Paxton Court the number of units completed will total 17 units. According to Mr. Germano by the middle of spring the entry area which includes the first two duplexes on Flint Pond Drive extending to the next intersection should be totally complete and landscaped providing a great glimpse of what the final product here at Flint Pond Estates would look like.

Condominium Sales Continue

Despite the current economic conditions sales continue here at Flint Pond Estates. Of the first 23 condominium units only 5 are available for sale. Aggressive marketing and advertising efforts coupled with competitive pricing structure has made Flint Pond Estates a very attractive opportunity. Located just minutes from major highways, these 2,000 square foot three-bedroom townhouses with two car garage bays overlooking Flint Pond are very desirable said Sue Zamis, Marketing and Sales Director here at Flint Pond Estates. With Seller offered discounts it is still possible to purchase one of the three remaining townhouses in Phase I for $299,900.00. Buyers acknowledge that the time to purchase a new home now is just right. Low interest rates and homes discounted to their lowest level in more than a decade provide the recipe for home ownership at very affordable prices and especially here at Flint Pond Estates, one the very few residential developments in the area active in the sale of newly constructed townhouses.

Off Site Sewer and Water Line Extension

Construction at Flint Pond Estates is now at full gear. Significant progress has been made in just the last three weeks. Both the on and off site utility work is proceeding on schedule and is expected to be completed by the end of November. The 2,000 linear foot off site water line extension from Faulkner Road is almost complete. Earthworks and Site Development and Utilities, Inc., expects to have the final stage of the extension by the bridge crossing at Quinsigamond River completed by mid-October making domestic water supply to Flint Pond Estates possible. While the water line extension is under construction Finish Grade Excavation, LLC has been digging and installing a 2,200 linear foot sewer line extending from Nelson Road, crossing over Route 140, to Creeper Hill Road. We expect to have a major section of the sewer line completed by the end of October now that dewatering is no longer necessary said Jeff Allard, owner of Finish Grade Excavation. Weather permitting both the sewer and water line extensions should be online by mid-November. This date should very closely coincide with the completion of the first condominium unit. Occupancy of the first condominium is slated for the end of the year.

Building Permits Issued

Finally, the long awaited buyer anticipation date is here. Westwood Associates, Inc., has received building permits for its first 17 units here at Flint Pond Estates. Four of the six foundations are already poured with the last two expected to be poured by the end of October. Also framing of the first three buildings is almost complete. Based on the projected schedule all of the six buildings should be framed by the mid December. Buyers will now have the opportunity to visit the site, start visualizing and experience first hand the construction process and see their home become a reality.
