DR Horton Pensacola 'Bridgeview' 6 bedroom 3 1/2 bath
Ashley Plantation is an upscale gated community just north and west of Pace Florida. It is being built by several local builders as well as DR Horton Pensacola.
The neighborhood is very well designed. The lots range from patio size lots, if you are looking to downsize, to huge four acre lots if you are looking for a country estate. The lots are divided out into several planned neighborhoods based on lot size.

Ashley Plantation is secluded as it has been cut into a large undeveloped tract of land, just a mile or so from the Escambia river watershed area. There is a nice spring fed creek that flows through the neighborhood, and great conservation areas to enjoy as well

DR Horton has also started bulding in a very attractive patio lot neighborhood in Northwest Pensacola called Roberts Ridge,which I have not written an article for yet, but the subdivision seems to be coming along, and I am sure I will be writing about it soon.

D.R. Horton Pensacola
I have sold the Whittingham,Keylan and Hawkesberry DR Horton Pensacola floor plans in the last six months, and all my buyers have been very happy with their homes, and with the service they recieved from DR Horton Pensacola.
Also, they were all very happy with the great concessions on closing costs and upgrades they received.
To get more information on D.R. Horton Pensacola
call Jim Holland at 850-206-6140
D.R. Horton Pensacola paid virtually all closing costs,so a buyer who qualifies for a V.A. loan or a USDA loan,(which is available north of 10 mile road, or west of I-10 can in Northwest Pensacola )purchase a D.R.Horton Pensacola home with virtually no money down.

D.R. Horton Pensacola
Of course, if you have a good down payment,the concessions just increase the equity you have in your home at closing.So this great deal from D.R. Horton Pensacola means you win either way.

|Shepherds Grove Subdivision is a Great Neighborhood if you are looking for Great Schools in the Pensacola Real Estate Market
December 14th, 2011 Categories: DR Horton Pensacola, Northwest Pensacola
Of all of the homes available in the Pensacola Real Estate market, the Northwest Pensacola neighborhood of Shepherds Grove may have the best combination of elementary, middle and high schools available.
The Tate High School district has always been considered as being one of the most desirable high school districts in Escambia county. I have had many buyers who ask specifically to look at homes in that district. Tate High School has been known for having well supported sports teams and extracurricular activities for decades, and has always been known for a high level of community involvement.
To visit other Northwest Pensacola Neighborhoods click to visit the posts below
Ransom middle school is also considered one of the best in the county and consistently rates well on the state standardized testing. Ransom, Tate and Pine Meadow elementary are all rated 8 out of ten or higher on the Great Schools website.
