CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard Pacific Homes, one of the nation's leaders in homebuilding quality, has acquired 1,100 home sites at The Palisades, a 1,600 acre master-planned community located along Lake Wylie in southwest Mecklenburg County. With plans to open in late 2013, the company will introduce all-new home designs to the prestigious neighborhood.
"Standard Pacific Homes plans to build its move-up oriented homes on approximately 50% of the home sites and sell the remaining home sites to other builders," said Senior Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions for Standard Pacific Homes, Peter Kiesecker. "We have already received tremendous interest from the homebuilding community. Many builders are anxious about the rare opportunity to build within a highly-amenitized master-planned community complemented by this idyllic setting."
Standard Pacific Homes' thoughtful new home designs at The Palisades will feature large-scale open spaces, including highly-appointed gourmet kitchens that flow into expansive Great Rooms. The homes will also provide luxurious master suites featuring walk-in closets and elegantly-appointed private bathrooms.
"We are excited about the natural synergy between Standard Pacific Homes' move-up new home offerings and the sophisticated lifestyle that The Palisades offers," said Elliot Mann, Carolinas President of Standard Pacific Homes. "Our home designs will be reflective of the upscale surroundings, blending timeless architecture with casual luxury all within the serene Lake Wylie setting."
The 13,400-acre Lake Wylie is Charlotte's second largest lake and a popular recreational destination for residents of Charlotte. The unique Lake Wylie setting offers community amenities that include a sports and tennis complex, swim and fitness center, a world-class Jack Nicklaus designed 18 hole golf course, and soccer and equestrian facilities. Plus, The Palisades provides access to the many conveniences of Uptown Charlotte with the Uptown business district and airport less than 15 miles away.
