Amber Meadows

Amber Meadows sits in Marvin, NC, and is a 55+ active adult community with only 44 single-family homes, so folks tend to know each other around here, and you'll see ranch plans with all brick exteriors, wide open floor plans, and kitchens that run right into living and dining areas without any steps in between, which can help a bit as years go by, and most homes have first-floor master suites that come with walk-in closets and even optional tray ceilings if you're interested. All homes have attached two-car garages, and most houses have two to four bedrooms and between two to four-and-a-half bathrooms, with square footage generally ranging from about 2,264 to 3,899 square feet, so there's a bit of range if you like to have family stay over, and lots tend to have covered lanais, which means you can sit outside, look at the wooded landscape, the stream, or the pond, and listen to the birds or maybe watch the sun go down. The lawns get fully maintained by a professional staff through the warm months, and the homeowners' association takes care of exterior and yard chores, which means people spend less time mowing and more time walking the well-kept paths that wind through the community, so no one's got to worry much about outdoor work. The area around Amber Meadows gives folks quick access to nearby recreation centers, greenways for gentle exercise, a handful of country clubs, and medical centers, and if you like getting out for shopping, dining, or a movie, Blakeney and Stonecrest Shopping Centers aren't far at all. Amber Meadows offers fee simple ownership, and the lot pricing comes with the purchase, and homes are mostly detached two or more stories, with options for three bedrooms and three to three-and-a-half bathrooms, and some homes have only been on the market for a few days before selling, with recent sale prices ranging between $631,000 and $976,000, and homes built mostly in 2017 or 2019, based on records for places like Rocky Hollow Dr and Jasper Ln. There's care and support on offer too, including respite care if someone's caregiver needs a break, and help with daily tasks such as medication, personal care, and meals for those who need it, so people can keep some independence while having a bit of help when it's necessary. The atmosphere stays quiet and friendly, thanks to the small number of homes and the natural setting, with lots of trees, a scenic pond, and walking trails for those who like fresh air or a slow stroll with neighbors.
