Townsend, DE

Legacy at Odessa National is an intimate sized 55+ community in Townsend, Delaware. The community opened in 2006 by Ryan Homes, one of Delaware’s top home builders, and is planned for just 262 homes upon completion. The tight-knit community is perfect for retirees in search of a smaller-scale community with a friendly, relaxing environment. As part of the larger Odessa National Golf Course, residents have access to the public golf course and will enjoy a private clubhouse to be built in the future within the community.

The future clubhouse as this charming Delaware active adult community will feature 8,000 square feet. Plans call for a fitness center with the latest in weight training and cardiovascular equipment, an outdoor swimming pool, whirlpool and tennis courts. When the community is 75 percent sold Ryan Homes will break ground on this exciting facility. There are also walking trails throughout the community perfect for a quick morning jog or a relaxing walk with friends.

Golfers will love the 18-hole, par-72 Odessa National Golf Course. The course is adjacent to the Legacy community and is open for use by residents of Legacy and surrounding neighborhoods. It’s the perfect course for golfers of all levels with rolling hills and mature trees. The golf course clubhouse also features a convenient restaurant and bar.

Even though the community clubhouse is yet to be opened, residents stay busy with a wide variety of activities. There are various special interest clubs and organized activities such as the men’s walking club, breakfast buddies, mah jongg, fishing club, ladies lunch and more.

The homes at Legacy Odessa are available as new construction or resale. There are six single-family floor plans to choose from offering one or two-story living.

Are you looking to sell or buy real estate in Townsend Delaware?
This is a gorgeous home and great opportunity for the lucky new owner who has already bought it!
Active and savvy agents Dave and Diane Iliff of Patterson Schwartz Real Estate got this home sold even before it went on the market! Real estate in Townsend Delaware is up and coming and lots of buyers are out as the result of the tax incentives that are still available for a little while longer! The interest rates are also at all time lows - lower than they have been in at least 30 years. This could all slow down soon as the tax incentives will expire and rates could start creeping up once the government pulls out of the mortgage market at the end of March 2010! If you're thinking of selling call Dave and Diane Iliff, the seasoned experts who know what to do and when to do it. If you are buying and/or selling Dave and Diane can help. There is even a $6500 tax incentive if you are a repeat buyer and you don't necessarily need to sell your house to take advantage of it! First time buyers will enjoy an $8,000 tax benefit!
