Live in the Agrihood

Architecturally, the homes are inspired by the rural agricultural vernacular of the region. By celebrating individual homes with detail and textures they enable a blend of modern, transitional, and traditional styles to coexist side by side. Front porches and pitched rooftops offer a common baseline character, and strategies to minimize the dominance of the garage door help reinforce the pedestrian-oriented nature of the streetscape.

New home builders in Middlebrook have the option to select a geothermal energy system. Our Luxury Homestead Townhomes, Cottages, and Main Street Lofts all utilize this ecological energy source. Learn more
