There may be a few home builders that are offering special financing options on their new homes, but there hasn’t quite been an offer like the one that John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods are featuring on their Henry County new homes in The Preserve at Heron Bay. What makes this deal so extraordinary? Well, it’s the community of course. This truly is a remarkable neighborhood within Atlanta’s most beautiful master planned community. While this neighborhood is part of a large community, the neighborhood itself is very intimate, consisting of only 50 homesites. So, residents are able to benefit from all of the amazing amenities of a large community, but have the feel of a small neighborhood at the same time.

The Preserve at Heron Bay is an impeccable location along the 2nd fairway of the Canongate golf course. Many of the available home sites back up to the Canongate golf course on the 2nd or 5th hole. Now is the best time to purchase the golf-front new home you have been longing for because John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods is offering 4.5% financing on homes that close on or before March 31, 2009 (more…)
