UPDATE - 800+ residences coming to Bridges Farm Rd?

Update #2:  Upon review of the agenda if the most recent Mooresville Board meeting, there was a rezoning request that looks similar to the description of the described project, but in a different location than the picture included in this post.  That being the case this post is being redacted until further verification can be completed.

Update:  An individual stating he is the listing agent for the property pictured has indicated nothing is in the works for this property and that the diagram pictured is an old version of a previous project and that no rezoning is in the works.  Additionally, aShortChronicle incorrectly said thd project was on the south side of Bridges Farm rd, when the picture (that is apparently incorrect) depicts it on the north side.

No, this isn't the second coming of the Lake Davidson project turned back by citizen concern last year.  Instead, it looks like a second major new development may be in the works just north of Davidson over the Iredell County line on the north side of Bridges Farm Rd.   That is what one can surmise from a letter and landscape diagram circulated early last month in the area.

Meet the "Province on Lake Norman"...


By the counts on the diagram this project would include:

  • 100+/- single family homes
  • 300+/- condo/assisted living units
  • 300+/- apartments
  • 120+/- townhomes

That totals roughly 800 residences in what looks to be a massive senior living community.

In a letter that was mailed to people in the area dates early July, the project is described as a 100 acre "Life Plan Community" for people 60 - 75 that will "offer a full continuum of healthcare services, if ever needed."  There will also be a commercial component and a 50,000 sqft clubhouse.

To gather input on the project the developer is holding a half dozen focus groups. Two were held in July with four in August including one today, August 8th, at River Run Country Club in Davidson at 10am.

The letter says developers on the project include Nest Homes and R. L. West Properties.  The property is currently zoned R3 which means a rezoning will be needed to move it forward.
