The Grove at Fenwick Island New Homes

The Grove development replaced a large grove of wetlands trees.

Another of the new(er) developments in the West Fenwick area is The Grove, a community of “carriage homes” along the Route 54 corridor. This community of 59 beautiful townhome designs is located convenient to the beach, to Ocean City and to nearby food stores and restaurants. The Builder’s website mentions “minutes away” – and that is not far off. We experience about 10 minutes to the beach – except on Saturday in the summer when traffic grinds to a halt.

The community offers a variety of home styles with varying levels of amenities.

The Grove actually replaces what was a large grove of trees in a wetlands area. A ton of money was spent to cut down hundreds of trees and grind them into mulch – to make room for these new carriage homes/townhomes.

Countless loads of “fill” was brought in to raise the land. Our worry is what may happen several years down the road – as the substrate changes because of the changes that were made to the surface. It might lead one to recall that the City of New Orleans was not below sea level when it was built.

Seashore Villas New Homes at Royal Farms

A development by Capstone Homes on Route 54 in West Fenwick

Entrance sign to Seashore Villas behind the Royal Farms gas Station on Route 54.

This new development is made of very attractive two story townhomes with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a one-car garage. The the website claims that all homes back to either a beautiful pond or the woods. While that may be true – the pond is large and it is beautiful – but they don’t mention that many of the homes will front to the back side of a Royal Farms gas station/convenience store. Unfortunately, some of those homes are being built directly across the street from the dumpsters.

Amenities are listed as a pool, a pond and irrigation/lawn care. The location is about 10-12 minutes from the beach and 15 minutes to North Ocean City (except on Saturdays in the summer when that could increase to an hour).
