About Us
History
Construction of Concord Meadows Subdivision began in 1998 with a ranch style and two story home for buyers to review. This in itself was unusual as most builders/developers at that time only built one home and called it the “model “ home. The first resident moved into the neighborhood in April, 1999. There were no street lights and few houses. Building continued throughout the year and the last home was occupied in November, 1999. There was very little landscaping in each yard so it became a neighborhood project to upgrade the yards. The island had few trees and very little grass. The common areas were defined and include the island and the land between the fence and road at the entrance. There were very few plants/shrubs in place and there was a very small sign on one of the brick columns which displays “Concord Meadows Subdivision.” With a lot of hard work on the island and in each homeowner’s yard we have transformed this neighborhood from a somewhat nondescript area to an area that is much sought after. We have an active Homeowners Association that looks to uphold the values of our homes. The values of the homes continue to rise and as new neighbors we ask that you work with us to continue improving our community.
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD! WE’RE GLAD YOU’RE HERE!
