 Newly Opened Model Homes and Clubhouse Create Homebuyer Buzz at Highly-Anticipated Villages of Seloy in St. Augustine
 

 
Jacksonville, FL — June 17, 2008 — Retirement Corporation of America – Florida, Inc. (RC of A) is enjoying brisk home shopper traffic to its highly-anticipated Villages of Seloy community since recently unveiling four new home designs and a stunning resident clubhouse. Now open to the public, the unique ranch-style residences offer Old World charm and carefree living amid the beautiful natural setting of northern St. Johns County.
 
From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, visitors to the Augustine, Castillo, Solana and Vilano model homes can enjoy an informative tour that highlights casually sophisticated and creatively planned residences. These luxurious ranch-style condominiums feature two-bedrooms and two baths, with an optional third bedroom on select home designs. Phenomenally priced from the high $200s, residences range in size from a spacious 1,520 to 1,875 square feet.
 
“Villages of Seloy is our newest multi-family offering on the First Coast,” said Dane Cates, president of Retirement Corporation of America – Florida, Inc. “It is specifically planned for only 240 homes in a low-density, natural setting. Our goal was to create an intimate environment that promotes an enhanced sense of community and security. We are very pleased with the positive feedback and steady flow of home shopper traffic we’ve received. For a limited time, buyers can take advantage of our inventory homes currently available for purchase, each including approximately $20,000 in free design upgrades.”
 
Within Villages of Seloy, all residential buildings will be arranged in the unique “pinwheel” design for which RC of A is well known. With only one shared wall per structure, this visionary layout serves to maximize owner privacy and enjoyment. Each of the buildings’ four condominiums will be positioned as an end unit, marked by beautiful cultured stone and stucco exteriors.
 
RC of A’s highly amenitized floorplans showcase creative design elements that create plenty of flexibility and room for personal expression. Convenient interior amenities include: a generous ceiling; gourmet open kitchen with center island (in select homes): modern GE appliance package, Corian countertops, and custom cabinetry with under cabinet lighting; a spacious family and dining room combination; cozy den (per plan); spacious bedrooms; decadent decorator baths; plenty of closet and storage space; skylights in the kitchen and master bath; and a charming sunroom. A selection of builder upgrades also is available.
 
All ranch-style condominiums feature a breezy private patio offering picturesque nature or lake views. Additional exterior features include a well-manicured, lush landscape; safe and convenient community footpaths, an elegant roundabout fountain and a gated community entrance.
 
Not typical of most multi-family communities, Villages of Seloy homes also feature generous two-car garages and no cumbersome stairs to climb – two great lifestyle aspects that allow buyers to downsize without compromise. For those wanting the comfort of a traditional single-family home without the inherent maintenance duties, Villages of Seloy offers the perfect “lock-and-leave” residential solution.  
 
Also causing quite a stir with home shoppers is the stunning Villages of Seloy resident clubhouse. The well-appointed, private facility features a sparkling pool with elegant fountains and a spacious sun deck; a convenient catering kitchen; state-of-the-art health and fitness center; billiards and media room, card room, library with fireplace, ample multi-purpose room; and designated men’s and ladies’ facilities.
 
Ideally located just minutes to historic St. Augustine, World Golf Village, the Beaches and Ponte Vedra, Villages of Seloy provides easy access to a wide variety of year-round recreation and social opportunities. Championship golf, water sports, winery tours, dining and dancing, indulgent spa services, boutique and regional shopping, and a multitude of concert and art venues are just a few of the many noteworthy activities available within St. Johns County and the surrounding areas.
 
“Villages of Seloy is the kind of community where residents can stay close to home or venture out on the town and still have plenty to enjoy,” said Cates. “The lifestyle possibilities are endless.”
