“The inaugural Masterpiece Builder Award was introduced last year to shine the light on clever design, which enhances the overall masterplan vision,” said Jeff Meyers, chief executive officer of Zonda. “Brambleton Group flipped both its school district constraints and large stormwater pondchallenge into opportunities, which made Birchwood at Brambleton one of the region's most sought-after 55+ neighborhoods.”
What is a 55+ community?Sometimes referred to as Senior Living or Active Adult, these communities are where “everything from floor plans and expected home maintenance to community events and resources all cater to homeowners in that age demographic.”
Located in Loudoun County, Virginia, the 1,500 Birchwood at Brambleton units include four builders with previous experience in Brambleton (Miller & Smith, Van Metre Cos., Tri Pointe Homes, and Knutson).
Collectively, the builders offered different design perspectives, giving homebuyers product diversification from single-story living to larger multifamily and townhome-style homes.
“Too often, developers chase density without considering size variety. We do have a whole variety of product,” said Kim Adams, vice president of marketing at Brambleton Group, during an interview with BUILDER. “When you drive by, you don't realize you're in an active-adult community. It's very seamless.”
Birchwood also placed major focus on its amenity strategy, that began with its prime location with easy access to the city center, trails and airport. They also feature pickleball and bocce courts, a community greenhouse, indoor and outdoor pools and integrated trail-connected exercise stations, among other amenities.
