It is possible to buy a lot and/or build your home on a Willow Ponds lot that is currently available. To do so, you may use one of our architects, or you may choose your own architect and we will provide design review. To maintain the integrity of the Willow Ponds development, before any lot is sold, a well-specified house plan must be agreed to by both buyer and seller. As well, we reserve the right to review and approve your selected builder. Locally, you may choose one of our current site builders or choose from an approved builders list. In either event, in keeping with the spirit of the development, the square footage of each home must stay under 25% of the lot size.
