CHARLOTTE NEW HOME BUYERS FIND ACTIVE LIFESTYLE, QUALITY CONSTRUCTION AND A PLACE WHERE NEIGHBORS BECOME FRIENDS WHEN MOVING TO REGENCY AT PALISADES You’ve worked hard your whole life and now it’s time to relax, enjoy your grandchildren, not worry about yard work and live in a place where your neighbors become your friends. Welcome to life at Regency at Palisades, a Toll Brothers Active Living® Community that provides stunning, personalized home designs, resort-style amenities and low-maintenance living in a prestigious neighborhood. Set by beautiful Lake Wylie, on Highway
49, minutes from I-485, a luxurious lifestyle awaits, where residents can explore the surrounding nature preserves and miles of spectacular trails. Homeowners can also take advantage of the convenient proximity to Charlotte-Douglas International Airport, Uptown Charlotte as well as South Park and Ballantyne area’s dining, cultural and shopping attractions. You’ve decided that Charlotte is the place for you, with it’s great yearround weather, thriving city life and an abundance of cultural and sporting activities. But how do you decide which community is right for you? We talked with two couples—
Dale and Wanda who recently moved to Regency at Palisades and Daryl and Donna who are currently building their new home at Regency at Palisades —to ask them why they felt this was the perfect community for them. “We were really impressed with the reputation of Toll Brothers and the beautiful model homes that we toured,” said Wanda. “We especially loved all the opportunities they provided us to personalize our home, from the open floor plans, 10’-foot ceilings, unlimited flooring, lighting and cabinetry options, to the ability to enlarge our garage and even being able to choose whether we wanted a crawl space or a basement.” Wanda went on to say; “We wanted to be a part of a new neighborhood so we would have the opportunity to meet our neighbors and establish friendships. We couldn’t be more thrilled with our choice. The community’s lifestyle director, is always presenting us with new and exciting things to do. Once the new Amenity Center is completed, we know that will be a great way to share interests with our neighbors.” While many buyers move from other parts of the country to Regency at Palisades, Dale and Wanda are downsizing from another home inside the greater Palisades community. “We looked at a lot of other neighborhoods in the Charlotte area, but nothing compared to
Regency at Palisades,” said Donna. “We feel like Toll Brothers just has a superior product.” In addition to product, location also played a big role. “We have a daughter who lives by Lake Norman, but that area is just too busy. We went up to look at a community near the lake and got stuck in gridlock traffic. We have never had that problem in the Palisades area.” “The thing we love most about Regency is the sense of social atmosphere,” explained Daryl. There is just so much to do, from hiking, tennis, bocce and pickleball to relaxing by the indoor or outdoor
swimming pool. We have already enjoyed getting to know some of our future neighbors as we have walked around the community.” Come and experience the possibilities of the lifestyle and home you have always imagined at Regency at Palisades. To learn more about the Toll Brothers community, please visit RegencyAtPalisades.com or call 704-504-3939. You can a ls o visit th e we bsite at TollBrothers.com/Charlotte for more information and directions to all of the spectacular communities Toll Brothers offers in Charlotte.
