The Northstar
Community is a 1,694.6 acre mixed use development located in Berkshire and Kingstown Townships, Delaware
County, Ohio.The first parcel was purchased by the Weiler
Family from Richard Igo in 1998 and the assemblage of the remaining acreage was
completed in 2005.The development plan
for the land east of North Galena Road, when complete, calls for a 351.3 acre
golf course with clubhouse, swimming pool and tennis courts, 833 single family
homes, a 146 unit condominium project, and a cluster home community.The residual 306.5 acres, located west of North Galena Road,
is zoned for commercial, office, retail and apartment use.
Construction of the
golf course, designed by John and Jim Cook, began in 2004 and it opened for
play in July 2007.In March 2009, the
golf course changed its name from NorthStar Golf Resort to NorthStar Golf Club
and the pool and tennis facilities were complete in June of that year.The 36.3 acre condominium project began in early
2009 and the first units were sold and ready for occupancy in the spring of
2010.In February 2009, Nationwide
Realty Investors, a subsidiary of Nationwide Insurance Company, became co-owner
with the Weiler family in the development of the remaining acreage of this
mixed use project.
