If you answered mostly As: 

You’re a worldly sophisticate with a mind of your own. You love being pampered and enjoying the finer things in life, and you love a great party. That said, you also love spending time re-energizing and caring for the space you call home. You would fit right in at Collingwood Towns, the new luxury community by Brunswick Forest, where elegant and low-maintenance designs allow residents to enjoy a beautifully crafted quiet, private home that’s still close to all the hustle-bustle and culture of the Wilmington metro area. 

If you answered mostly Bs: 

You’re a wilderness enthusiast! You probably have plenty of camping gear and know how to pitch a tent and start a campfire without too much trouble. You love supporting your local community, and your local community loves you. You’d be a great candidate for townhome living, especially near the gorgeous beaches, abundant water sports, and picturesque nature trails on the Carolina coast. You prefer to be outdoors, and a low-maintenance duplex or villa home like the ones at The Home Place of Southport would let you spend more time in the open air than inside vacuuming.

If you answered mostly Cs:

You love community, you love culture, and you love delicious eats. You feel your best when you’re able to connect to the people who live near you over deep conversations and when spending time in a casual, at-home setting. All of these are an inherent part of townhome life! But Southport, NC is also not a winter wonderland, so you’d have to consider whether an ice-and-snow situation is truly your must-have landscape before deciding to join the fun at The Home Place of Southport.

If you answered mostly Ds:

You’re an easygoing, laid-back, friendly person. Everyone loves spending time with you; you’re always up for an adventure or a lazy Sunday afternoon — whatever’s happening is great with you. Since you like a little bit of everything, townhome living would look great on you, because that’s what The Home Place of Southport has. With access to everything from galleries and live music to kayaking and pickleball, this is the perfect spot for someone with a zest for life like you have.
