You may also find popular neighborhood features like parks, trails, playgrounds, picnic areas, and even more substantial amenities like clubhouses, fitness facilities, pools and sports courts have been included.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Character!<\/strong> Because master-planned communities are developed from a \u201cbig-picture\u201d perspective, more forethought can be devoted to their\u00a0design aesthetic. Streetscapes and home exteriors may need to conform to a community\u2019s theme, whether that\u2019s Tuscan-inspired, Colonial, Spanish or Craftsman. Entry monuments, street signs, community landscaping and other details may be planned to enhance the overall sense of community.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Value!<\/strong> No home investment offers a guaranteed profit, but many master-planned communities are built with covenants and homeowners associations in place to maintain the neighborhood\u2019s common areas and protect its visual charm. A community with curb appeal won\u2019t hurt when it\u2019s time to sell in the future!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><em>Want to learn about masterplans in your area? <\/em><\/strong>We build in dozens of exciting master-planned communities in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, Utah, Virginia and Washington.
