Whispering Woods, a 55-plus community by McKee Builders, today announced the opening of its sales office in Middletown, Delaware. The development is located at 506 Boyd's Corner Rd.

"Whispering Woods is our third 55+ lifestyle community in Middletown," said Frank McKee, Jr. of McKee Builders. "The others, Springmill and Spring Arbor, have been very successful communities and well received by our buyers. In fact, Spring Arbor was named the "˜Best 55+ Community of the Year' by the Home Builders Association of Delaware. That led us to explore other opportunities in Middletown, and we're excited to be able to offer another spectacular 55+ lifestyle community in this great location. With no sales tax, no tax on Social Security and low property taxes, Delaware is a great place to retire."

The development will feature a variety of home deigns, including single-family ranch square feet, twins and carriage homes. A 3,000-square-foot clubhouse with a pool and fitness center will sit at the center of the community. Outdoor maintenance will be included.

Whispering Woods will contain 178 homes, starting at $254,9000. More information is available at: whisperingwoodsde.com.
