When you're trying to find the best place to build your new home, choosing a neighborhood is almost as critical as selecting the right builder; it needs to be safe, affordable and provide you with everything that you need.

When you're planning to build a home, keep in mind that you're not just buying a house, you're investing in a neighborhood. The two are synonymous so you need to be extra careful in choosing the area you'll be living in. Before you begin your search, you need to ask yourself what are the most important features of a neighborhood?  What makes a neighborhood special to you?

Are you looking for:

• Quiet streets or a busier, active area?
• Great school district?  
• Trees and parks?
• Close proximity to shopping and restaurants?
• Young families or more mature residents?
• Tight-knit community or anonymity?

Try walking through the neighborhoods you are considering at different times of day/evening to really get a feel for the lifestyle there.  Notice the friendliness of the community and how well the yards and houses are kept. 

If a neighborhood comprised of custom built homes, gorgeously situated in a idyllic comunity with world class schools, where myriad shopping, dining and recreation options abound, you may want to consider Weatherton Farm Estates in Unity Township, Westmoreland County.  Situated in a country setting with rolling hills, Weatherton Farm Estates is graciously located within the highly-rated Greater Latrobe School District.
