You wouldn’t think that 20-year-old home buyers would have the same desires in their new home community as, say your 85-year-old neighbor across the street, but according to a study done by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) called Housing Preferences of the Baby Boomer Generation, all age groups showed a strong inclination about the following three factors when deciding where to buy a new home:

• Live in a Suburban Community
• Close Proximity to a Park Area
• Access to Walking / Jogging Trails

While there is not much else that Seniors (born before 1946), Baby Boomers (born between 1946 and 1964), Gen-Xers (born between 1964 and 1979), and Millennials (born after 1979) have in common.  There are a plethora of seminars and self-help classes that employers can attend to “understand” the Millenials and what they want.  However, when it comes to the concept of homeownership, there seems to be common ground about how home buyers perceive the lifestyle and community in which they want to live.  It seems common sense that homeowners don’t want to spend a lot of time in traffic traveling to suburban areas to purchase groceries, go out to eat, go shopping, or have a night on the town.  Also, an active lifestyle encourages better mental abilities, better physical shape, and simply makes you feel better as a person.  It’s not such a stretch to think that a person considering buying a new home wouldn’t look for these qualities in a new home community.

The entire concept of these amenities is how Bedico creek Preserve’s “community construction” was designed.  Instead of clearing a space for “humans” to live, Bedico Creek decided to build and adapt to nature’s landscape by constructing a lifestyle community into a wildlife habitat and nature preserve.  The development of this master planned community is called Conservation and Green Living and is purposeful in its preservation of the green spaces, wetlands, trees, waterways, and ponds and lakes that make up the community.  When you buy a lot and build a new home in Bedico Creek Preserve, you not only get to enjoy your own backyard, you also get to view and enjoy 500 acres of open space.

The designers of Bedico creek also built walking, jogging, hiking, & biking paths throughout the community for our residents to take full advantage of nature.  Offering 9 different Neighborhoods of lots and new homes for sale, our community is also located in close proximity to a huge retail complex, “big-box” store, stand-alone “mall stores,” and dining, shopping, and entertainment in Covington, Louisiana.  Be close to town, but also enjoy the parks and recreation at our new home community in St. Tammany Parish.  For More Information, Call 985-845-4200 or E-mail [email protected].
