Conservation Lands
Your
home at Los Establos will be surrounded by the groves of
trees, flowing water, and rolling grasslands of your own private nature
preserve.
Your lot and those of your neighbors include natural habitat that will
be preserved forever in the High Point Prairie Conservation Easement.
Your views of prairie wildflowers and majestic oaks, the sounds of gurgling
streams and rustling leaves, and the fresh scent of clean country air
will never be compromised by uncontrolled development.
A network of walking and equestrian trails connects your home to all
the wonders of your prairie home's natural setting. You can also go cross-country
for bird watching or nature
study, pick a handful of wildflowers, dangle
a fishing hook in one of the creeks, or just enjoy the great outdoors,
free of the crowds that visit public parks.
Water
features include creeks and small lakes adjacent to nearly every lot
in the Los Establos community. Lakes will be stocked and managed for
recreational fishing (mostly catch and release, with scheduled periods
for retained catches to maintain balanced fish quality and population)
and for wildlife, providing habitat for wading birds and aquatic animals.
Conservation lands are enjoyed communally by Los Establos residents and
their invited guests. An added bonus: the portion of your lot included
in the conservation easement is taxed at agricultural (rather than residential)
rates.
