If so, what has your experience been? Are any of their communities gated?

Yes, I have a lot hold at the Meadows. I love it! I just went to NJ to look at 2 models, because they only have the Raleigh. It was beautiful! Are you interested.
No there is no gated communities in Marvin, they are not allowed by the village I was told. You can get gated in Weddington.

Default Toll Brothers

The Meadows is the next phase of Marvin Creek for Toll Brothers. They include basement lots and third floor when available.

go to www.marvincreek.com - click on meadows.

The builder is toll brothers and the community is an extension of Marvin Creek. They have like 4 or 5 different series. The meadows is in the $600-$800 plus price point. It is .75 to 1 acre lots. The other price points can go into $1million and as low as high $500k (Carolinas which is sold out). The Meadows is right off of Joe Kerr Rd & Marvin School Rd. This community has great amenities (pool, lazy river, clubhouse, tennis).
Other communities are firethorne & Providence ($1mill plus), Briddle Path (Orleans builders no amenities) at $650-$900 plus.
I went to Weddington too, which is about $50k less, but the property is .3 to .5. Anything on 1 acre (Waybridge, Quintessa) will be closer to $800-million.
There is a new development in Waxhaw (Cureton) which seems to be very popular. The builders I know of are MI and Standard Pacific. I saw the MI homes and they were beautiful, only thing is property is .25 and I want .75 to 1 acre. Lawson is also pretty and popular in Waxhaw.

Marvin Creek is expensive on their options and they do NOT negotiate. It is crazy but they just don't need your business they will sell to someone else. Only thing you can work on is maybe the lot premium.
Note that the Meadows does not include the basements anymore but they lowered the price by about $30k so now people can put that $ to anyother part of the house and not to anything if you dont want to spend the $$.

We liked Marvin Creek but the arrogance of the sales staff in the Estates was a big turnoff. We eventually bought in Bridle Path.

great info thanks everyone and Three i agree with you because they are that way here in NJ too...I guess they figure your spending 800's dollars they dont need to go down on anything..LOL...Cureton is beautiful I have almost an acre now and do not want that much land to have to deal with....Not sure if we want to build again..maybe they will have a spec house..we fell in love with the Standard Pacific home it was 3700 sq ft.....
