a fresh
perspective
INTRODUCTION
With the development of the North Village, Windsor completes the final phase of a passion project begun by co-founders W. Galen and Hilary M. Weston over three decades ago. The North Village is at once a seamless expansion of this beloved seaside community, and a fresh new vision for it. Inspired both by past success and future possibilities, it builds on the thoughtfully crafted master plan and elegant architectural aesthetic established by pioneering New Urbanism architects Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk while introducing an even greater commitment to sustainability.
With scenic trails, landscaping that supports native flora and fauna, and quiet places to pause and take in peaceful views, the North Village will foster wellbeing.
a lasting
legacy
NATURE & SUSTAINABILITY
Windsor is a legacy endeavor for the Weston family. Just as Mr. and Mrs. Weston worked together to establish the community in the early 1990s, now Mrs. Weston and daughter Alannah Weston have shaped an evolved vision for Windsor’s North Village. Based upon the principles of the New Urbanism movement, their vision is enhanced with heightened focus on sustainability to ensure the North Village can be enjoyed for generations to come. A mix of residences, green public spaces and new amenities will combine to create an experience that balances privacy and community.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
- Albert Einstein
a natural
tapestry
Landscaping inspired by the Indian River Lagoon's rich ecology is a feast for the senses, a horticultural tapestry of native plant species selected for color, scent and suitability for the barrier island’s particular climate. It is an environment in which wildlife can continue to flourish.

RESIDENCES
Encompassing 47 acres adjacent to the Indian River Lagoon, and featuring an estuary and a sparkling freshwater lake, the North Village is a natural and complementary extension of the existing Windsor community. America’s leading New Urbanism proponents, DPZ CoDESIGN, have designed the master plan, focusing on principles of sustainability, walkability, healthy living, and community values. A mix of 34 single-family residences and six Row Houses as well as new amenities will be built around the estuary and lake, providing opportunities for soothing water views.
When you leave a beautiful place, you carry it with you wherever you go.

architectural refinements
Windsor's iconic Anglo-Caribbean architectural language will be subtly modified to engender a more contemporary aesthetic and incorporate sustainable building practices. This will open the door for a new generation of architects to realize their most ambitious visions on behalf of Members.

AMENITIES
The North Village will feature new amenities for Windsor’s multi-generational membership to enjoy. The Fitness and Wellness Centre with studios for cardio, strength and flexibility training, spa treatment rooms and a juice bar, will expand the community’s health and wellbeing offering to 12,620 square feet. A collection of outdoor amenities will include a viewing platform showcasing sweeping views across the mangroves to the lagoon and horizon beyond. A kayak launch with storage will provide seamless connection to the Indian River.
Art will never be able to exist without nature.

art
The North Village will expand Windsor’s arts program, introducing permanent installations of outdoor sculpture within the landscape. The estuary will be home to an “Art Island” where architect- and artist-designed works will create an inspiring space for quiet contemplation.
wellness
Wellness is a guiding principle behind the design of the North Village. Carefully protected natural habitats within and around the North Village nurture native species while thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces and amenities enhance the time Members spend in the fresh air.
green spaces
The North Village will offer Members a thoughtfully imagined balance between community living and true privacy. Within the 47-acre master plan, over 26 acres is devoted to parks, greens and islands, and nearly 10 acres is comprised of water, with a freshwater lake to the east and an estuary to the west.
neighbors to nature
The tranquil environment of the North Village is enhanced by two neighboring conservation areas that together create a precious, forever preserved buffer zone. The Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge is to the north and the Historic Jungle Trail runs along the western perimeter.
outdoor sport
A network of trails and boardwalks for scenic walking, biking and horseback riding links all areas of the North Village, from the Village Green to the “Oak Pantheon”. Water sports will also be close at hand with a kayak launch giving direct access to the Indian River Lagoon.
