Myers Point Open House Announced

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 12, 2010 -- (Nashville, TN) Monday, May 10, 2010 – Myers Point at Sewanee, an exclusive craftsman community under development in Franklin County, Tennessee, will hold its first open house of 2010 on May 15 and 16. Visitors are welcome to tour the 24-lot luxury development between 10:00 am to 6:00 pm on Saturday and from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm on Sunday according to local developer John Currier Goodson.

“I have known and loved the Myers Point property since I was young. I loved to hike there because of how much peace it gave me,” explains Goodson. It was a dream come true when l met Miss Ina May Myers and circumstances allowed me to purchase the property. It has been a labor of love to create the framework for a lifestyle community like no other.”

The Myers Point Open House coincides with The University of the South’s graduation weekend. Goodson acknowledges the date was selected because of the high interest in the property from university alumni, faculty and parents.

“We had a quiet open house last fall,” explains Goodson, “But we are looking at 2010 as the real ‘coming out’ party for the property. With the current reduced rates on mortgages and the incredibly low cost of building by exceptional local craftsmen, this is the time to build a legacy property in Sewanee.”
