Well you've heard my take on the Golf Course section of Irish Creek, here's my take on the neighborhood itself.

This neighborhood is being developed by one of the premier development companies IN THE WORLD in Castle and Cooke. This is a company that's been around since the 1850's and developed some of the top rated resort neighborhoods everywhere from Hawaii to California, just to name a few.

The homes are being built by some of the areas most reputable builders, many who I have personally dealt with, and have proven themselves to be honest, intelligent, thoughtful people who take real pride in what they do. And I don't mean the pride of a national firm who thinks it deserves an award because they try to return your call within 24 hours when you have an emergency. I mean real personal service, hands-on builders who don't accept anything less than perfect. I mean personal service when you go to SELL the home years after you bought it. I'm talking about Zande, Hughes, and Lopez among others. These are the builders largely responsible for making Lake Norman area neighborhoods as desirable as they are today.

The neighborhood will include Golf Course front, Lake front (Lake Kannapolis), and interior lots with a 10 year build-out plan through multiple phases. Prices as they stand now in Phase 1 range from the $800's for homes around 4,000 sq ft to about $1.3M for the larger more elaborate homes with lots sizes edging over the 1 acre mark. Later phases are slated to range across the board from the $400's up and will include a variety of living situations including "patio home type lots," and possibly townhomes.

Located just 5 miles from the Research park, this neighborhood will be one of the very few options the high paid scientists will have as they move in the area so there is no doubt it will be a success.

The new Irish Creek Neighborhood and Golf Course I finally had the pleasure to play the new Irish Creek Golf Course in Kannapolis, NC this week and I can't help but write about my experience. Davis Love III did one phenomenal job with the design and renovation of this course and it is no wonder to me why it is being considered as one of the top renovations in the country for 2008. Formerly know as the Kannapolis Country Club, this course renovation is part of the billionaire David Murdock's transformation of the city of Kannapolis from a struggling mill town that recently saw the largest number lay-offs in NC history, to a booming town based around a multi-billion dollar research facility based on Bio-technology and health/nutrician. But back to the course. Over a million dollars was spent soley on new sod! 6 new holes were added and none were left original. The greens are excruciatingly misleading to all but those of you with the keenest of eyes but roll so true. Bent grass, when maintained at this level is a beautiful thing. The athestics of the course are maximized by utilizing every possible inch of shoreline along Lake Kannapolis and what a gorgeous view it is. Set up in the link style of Old European courses Irish Creek also incorporates the painfully long grass of the likes of St. Andrews. What fun! You will be sure to remember the two back to back 530 yard (from the blue tees) par 5's. Great challenge. More later on the neighborhood.
