What makes Windsor Green such a wonderful place to live isn't the beautiful townhouse complex grounds or Silverwood Regional Park across the street, although those are great perks. What really sets it apart is the people who live there and create a wonderful sense of community.
When you buy a townhome in Windosr Green you are buying more than a place to live... you are becoming part of an intelligent, caring community. Here is an example of the kind of caring exemplified in the Windsor Green community, in the words of a resident...
We have a preschool granddaughter that is confined to a wheelchair. Last year one of our neighbors planned a tea party inviting my granddaughter and all the other little girls of Windsor Green. The party took place under a canopy of trees at tables covered with linen table cloths, set with real china, with little sweets and tea. The grounds were decorated with brightly colored balloons and parasols. The older girls read children's books to the little ones on patchwork quilts in the grass. The party ended with a stroll around the pond, each little girl carrying a brightly colored parasol. The group of moms that had gathered had time for tea and visiting while the children played. I will never forget the joy on my granddaughter's face that day. What a kind thing for my neighbor to do!
My grandchildren also enjoy the annual spring egg hunt, the summer root beer float party, and National Night Out where there are always activities for the kids. And the pools are a big hit all summer long. All the children of Windsor Green have learned to swim from excellent swim teachers during the summer.
New Brighton's Windsor Green was the first owner-occupied townhome complex in Minnesota. Its thoughtful plan including spacious units of six different designs with attached double garages with huge decks on 34 acres of beautiful, park-like grounds with miles of paths, 2 swimming pools, tennis courts and playgrounds was carefully designed to entice people out of their single family homes to a community with resort-like amenities where you don't have to worry about mowing the lawn or shoveling the snow.
Part of the pretigious St. Anthony School District, Windsor Green is a complex that welcomes pets and is designed for all ages, with a bus stop at the entrance to the complex and easy access to both downtown Minneapolis and downtown St. Paul with freeways and bus lines nearby.
It never ceases to amaze me how many people have lived in Windsor Green for decades... many following their parents and grandparents who were original owners. That speaks volumes.
