Whats New at Marrano - 5/14/11

New patio home model grand opening for Lakewoods in Elma.

Come see our charming new model and beautiful, private home sites in this one-of-a-kind community.

Marrano introduced Lakewoods, a new offering of cul-de-sac home sites with water views and privacy enhanced by wooded areas within our Springbrook Shores patio home community in Elma. Now, we are grand opening a new model to coincide with Lakewoods, a charming, cottage style design that blends perfectly with the natural surroundings of the neighborhood. We are beginning to wind down the patio home community and our Lakewoods grand opening underlines the limited opportunities to enjoy the unique lifestyle here. Come see the new model and take a drive through the country-like setting and experience it all for yourself.
