Save the Date! September 30th - FOURTH-Annual, Academy Hill Block Party!

Save the date!  Our Fourth-Annual, Academy Hill Block Party is going to be on Sunday, September 30th at the new sales office location at 24 Arbor Way.

Last year, the Block Party was a huge success, and prospective buyers and residents enjoyed food, music, and activities.  There have been many new sales this year, and the Block Party is a great opportunity to meet your new neighbors.

All of the inventory and model homes will be open and available to tour.  We are still in the midst of planning the event, so further details and formal invitations will be provided soon!

I look forward to seeing you at the Block Party!

'Sleeping Beauty' at the Groton Country Club

My 4-year-old daughter loves books, and has been participating in the Groton Public Library's Summer Reading Program.  She really enjoys our library, and there are many great events and activities.  Have a look at their calendar page: 

Groton Public Library Calendar

Last night, was the Tanglewood Marionettes rendition of Sleeping Beauty, held by the Groton Public Library.  Due to the more favorable location for the performance, the event was held at the Groton Country Club.

After the performance, the marionettes were even brought out for the kids to view and handle! 

From the Tanglewood Marionettes website:

"Founded in 1993 by Anne Ware and Peter Schaefer, Tanglewood Marionettes is a nationally touring marionette theater based in New England. Our repertoire consists primarily of classic tales performed by skilled puppeteers who have spent many years perfecting their art."

I really enjoy having such a great library in Groton.  As a youth, I remember feeling as though my local library was a portal into a new world.  As I read the books in the children's section, I recall having fun and being inspired to use my imagination to write my own stories.  Libraries are such a nurturing environment for the next generation of writers.  I do my best to support them whenever possible. 

I should also mention that the resources available for us grown-ups are great, too, and if you have not joined the GPL yet, I highly recommend doing so.

8 Qualities of Remarkable Employees

I am seeing a significant number of new relocations to the area for work this year and naturally, I try my best to make certain that the hiring companies are well aware of Academy Hill's great location and excellent values.

One of our residents (thank you Doug!) got me hooked on Inc.com, a business website that has helpful and informative articles covering just about all facets of business and entrepreneurism.  One of my favorite recent articles describes the 8 Qualities of Remarkable Employees: 

 8 Qualities of Remarkable Employees

I have shared this with a few area Human Resource Directors I've met at events at the Nashoba Valley Chamber of Commerce and through some of our residents here at Academy Hill.  Feel free to share this link, and especially a link to our Academy Hill website with your HR director, too!

Thanks,

Great News and Busy Times at Academy Hill

In case you have not seen the great news, national home prices have climbed for the fourth, consecutive month, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller home-price index, and as reported yesterday in the Wall Street Journal.  This is really great news, and economists are saying that this is a leading indicator for an improving economy, overall.  

Academy Hill has maintained a great track record of exceptional sales and consistency in value since I started here in 2009, and I am happy to learn about the Case-Schiller sales data, indicating that the market is continuing to improve as we follow through with completing our sales, here.  I typically see a very strong Fall market for home sales here in Groton, so combined with the great activity so far, this may be our strongest year yet!

Sales are going especially well right now, and I am busier than ever.  I am very happy to say that we will be welcoming new neighbors to both Arbor Way and Magnolia Lane within the next few weeks, and I just took a couple of new reservations for our third phase, too.

Also, I should mention that construction work  is in full-swing on lots 19 and 12 this week, so please be extra careful when using our construction entrance at Cherry Tree Lane.
