How many of us have a sibling or a parent that is a pro golfer? Not many, but I know my dad likes to think  he is when he’s walking around town sporting his freshest Ping pullover and Titleist visor.

He was on my mind as I strolled through the Pro Shop (www.pinehurstproshop.com)at the Pinehurst Country Club today . What would the Ol’ Man like this year? What do you get a man that has it all? Then I thought to myself, “something on sale, cha ching!”

Pro shops located on the courses are well known for bringing top dollar for new golf clothing, sporting goods, and all other basic golfing necessities. However the size of the table of sale items I saw today would have made anyone think otherwise. The table contained everything from the tee to the putter. All of 2009’s latest golf fashions were on sale in a time of you would think of being able to bring a full price.

After a quick once over I had picked up a hat and 4 sleeves of assorted brands of golf balls for Dad. The perfect gift for a golfer of any skill level.

Knowing the history and living the pro tour life is not what giving the golfer in your family a gift related to the sport is about. I wouldn’t buy Gary Player a basketball though you know?. Get your loved one a hat, help them plan their next golfing outing, or a visit to the Pinehurst Resort for the weekend.

The Villas at Forest Hills are conveniently located only a few miles from the resort and sales on hats are great but if you’re looking for a deal you should skip the pro shop and visit our model home at the Villas. No sale table here but with the cost of a Membership included in the price of the home you won’t feel ripped off paying the price on the tag.

On your next golf outing to Pinehurst or next big wave surfing the net, visit a pro shop to check the sales and visit the Villas at Forest Hills to see your dreams.

People used to think of it as a place for old, retired families who wanted peace and quiet and golf. And while you can still find that tranquility here in Pinehurst, there’s so much more.

   There are new restaurants, new shops and the old favorites are still here and are what make Pinehurst such a great place to live.

 

Challenge Yourself!

  Also, let’s not forget the golf. There are dozens of courses to play, so you’ll never get bored and there are always new offers and specials! And because the weather here is pretty temperate, it’s always a   good time for golf.

  The Village of Pinehurst (www.villageofpinehurst.org ) has long been a sought after location for golfers, to live, work and retire. However, finding a house in the area has always been tough because they’re pricey, old and often need repairs, or there just aren’t any on the market because no one wants to leave!  But now, with the new townhomes in Pinehurst, Villas at Forest Hills (www.VillasBySage.com) , there are great, new, affordable places to live inside the beautiful Village of Pinehurst.  The first time you see these Pinehurst townhomes, you’ll think, These are amazing, there is no way they are that affordable!.  Not only are they incredible on the inside, with tons of room, amazing appliances, and top of the line features they come with a MEMBERSHIP to the world renowned Pinehurst Country Club!

  Another benefit is the neighborhood being created is one of a kind. I realize for some people sidewalks in a neighborhood are a given, but in all my years of running and walking dogs in Pinehurst,  I can tell you that sidewalks in a new development is a huge deal, and the Villas have developed their neighborhood to include sidewalks on both sides of the street making this a completely pedestrian friendly neighborhood. It also helps connect it to the Lawn and Tennis Club, another small townhouse neighborhood, so for those of you who like to get out and walk – you’d be in the right place.

 

  Along the lines of convenience, the Villas are close to Pinecrest Plaza, and Fresh Market, where you can do all of your shopping – groceries, clothes, crafts, books … it’s all there.

Shopping, Dining, Entertainment, and More!

   I sound like a cheerleader for the Villas, I realize that, but honestly, if you’re looking to move to Pinehurst, I really can’t think of a better place.

   I mean what could be better than your own townhome in Pinehurst with all of the amenities of a house including huge bathrooms, incredible closet space, two-car garages, a beautifully landscaped yard (for  which you don’t have to lift a finger), and close proximity to the amazing historic Village of Pinehurst and seconds away from all your shopping needs.

   Did I mention that with the purchase of one of these amazing townhomes you get a membership to the coveted Pinehurst Country Club (www.Pinehurst.com)?

   Like I said … perfect!
