Finding the Perfect Fit: A Homebuyer’s Journey with Greenwood Homes

Meet Gail, a longtime resident of Virginia with roots in Mississippi and Alabama. After 40 years in Virginia, Gail considers it home. Recently, she decided to downsize from her larger house and find a space better suited to her lifestyle. She envisioned a home that offered both comfort and convenience, with one-level living and quality design. When she found Greenwood Homes, she knew she’d discovered exactly that.

Why Greenwood Homes Caught Her Eye

Gail’s search for a new home started right in her own neighborhood. “I was living in a larger home nearby,” she shares. “The washer and dryer, as well as the master bedroom, were upstairs, and I realized I wanted one-level living.” While walking her dog, Gail noticed Greenwood Homes’ beautiful designs and felt drawn to learn more. After meeting with Nick Becker, a Greenwood Homes sales manager, her interest grew. She was impressed by the quality of the homes and knew this could be the right fit for her.

A Perfect First Impression: Light, Layout, and Lifestyle

From the moment Gail stepped into her new home, she was captivated. “My first thought was, ‘Wow, this is gorgeous,’” she recalls. The layout and design immediately made her feel at home, and she was drawn to the Bayberry floor plan, which offered everything she needed on one level: the master bedroom, washer, dryer, kitchen, and family room. “The Bayberry had all the essentials on the main floor, with extra bedrooms and space upstairs for guests,” Gail explains, noting that the convenience of single-level living was a perfect match for her lifestyle.

One of her initial concerns, however, was natural light, especially since she chose an inner unit. Nick, her sales manager, understood this and helped her find the ideal location within the Bayberry plan—one with a screened porch facing west, offering stunning sunset views each evening. “It has plenty of light, even as an inner unit. Every night, I get to watch a gorgeous sunset over the mountains,” Gail shares. The thoughtful design, abundance of natural light, and scenic views made the Bayberry feel like a perfect fit from the very beginning.

A Well-Designed Home That Enhances Daily Life

Gail’s Greenwood Home has not only met her expectations—it’s improved her daily life in ways she hadn’t anticipated. “Everything I need is right here on the first floor, so I don’t have to go upstairs throughout the day,” she says. The thoughtful layout has proven invaluable, especially after contracting Covid shortly after moving in, when she appreciated having her essentials within easy reach.

Gail also praises the attention to detail in the design. “Greenwood Homes has put a lot of thought into the functionality and comfort of these homes. The space is well-utilized, with high-quality materials and a design that feels truly well thought out.” Every inch serves a purpose, creating an efficient yet cozy environment where she can feel at home. It’s a space crafted for comfort, convenience, and quality, making each day a little easier and more enjoyable

Working with the Greenwood Homes Team

Gail’s experience with Greenwood Homes has been positive from the start, largely thanks to Nick and the supportive sales team. “I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, but Nick was very patient,” she recalls. “The whole team was patient and answered all my questions, which helped ease any worries I had about the process.”

What it’s Like Living in Glenbrook

For Gail, Glenbrook in Crozet has become more than just a place to live. “It’s a wonderful area for families and great for walking,” she says. “Everyone has a dog, and it’s quiet, beautiful, and close to everything I need in Crozet.” Gail loves that her son, his family, and her grandchildren live nearby, making this community feel even more like home.
