In Fairview's Manchester Valley, a pond hides right smack in the middle of a subdivision off Dutch Road, and I if I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed it.
The homes that surround the pond are beautiful residences, and three of them are currently for sale with Realtors. Here they are:
At 6636 Richardson Road, a gorgeous home sits on .41 acre and features a great design. Inside the foyer, arched doorways and pillars separate rooms in an open floor plan. Hardwood flooring spans the main living space and branches into all the rooms.
To the left of the entry, the formal dining room connects to the kitchen and great room where a wall of built-ins surrounds a brick fireplace. A wall of windows and patio doors exits to a spacious patio, and the extraordinary view of the pond offers terrific outdoor living space. Back inside, the open kitchen wraps around to a screened in patio. At the opposite end of the house, a hallway branches into four bedrooms, and the master suite includes its own full bath. The other three bedrooms share a full bath.
There's still more living space. A door off the foyer includes a staircase to a second-floor bonus room and storage.
Built in 1998, the 2,729-square-foot home includes geothermal heat and central air. Listing agent Rita Brown, of RE/Max Real Estate, will host an open house Sunday, Sept. 21, from 1 to 3 p.m. The home is listed at $369,900. For more information, call her at 833-9801.
A few doors down at 6711 Richardson Road, a two-story home with four bedrooms and three and a half baths includes .42 acre.
Inside, its open floor plan features 2,808 square feet with hardwood flooring.
The main floor includes large, open rooms with stunning woodwork.
Two bedrooms suites are included -- one features a 20-by-12-foot space on the first floor. The second suite is on the second floor and includes a tray ceiling. Two more bedrooms on the second floor, and they share another full bath.

Rio Rancho has a new lighting ordinance.
The ordinance city councilors approved unanimously on Wednesday requires residential and commercial properties to shield outdoor lighting fixtures so light does not spread beyond the property limits.
Existing light fixtures are allowed to remain until they are inoperable or un-repairable unless the city deems they cause an annoyance or a potential hazard.
There are exemptions, such as traffic control devices, emergency lighting and temporary seasonal decorations.
Rio Rancho resident Cheryl Ganch greeted the ordinances arrival with joy.
To me its been a 15-year process of peoples passion, Ganch said after the City Council meeting. I believe it will have a long-term positive effect in Rio Rancho.
Ganch served on the second of two task forces the first one began work in 1999 to create an ordinance that would reduce night sky light pollution by requiring residential and commercial properties to shield outdoor lighting fixtures so light does not spread beyond their own property.
Ganch said scientific evidence has shown negative health effects from exposure to light 24 hours a day.
Our bodies need to be in the dark part of the time, she said.

Council approves lighting ordinance
As ambulances at a Vacaville hospital speed off to their next patient, an ultrasmart, energy-efficient system is lighting the way. Installed in partnership with UC Davis, the lighting system now illuminates the emergency vehicle routes, parking lots and outdoor walkways of the NorthBay VacaValley Hospital.
The system is reducing outdoor lighting energy use at the 24-hour site by 66 percent, saving about 29,000 kilowatt-hours annually enough to offset the greenhouse gas emissions of 7.2 tons of waste.
The project is the first comprehensive study of "networked adaptive" outdoor lighting for the health care sector and could lead the way to more efficient lighting at other hospitals. Adaptive lighting uses tools such as occupancy sensors to adjust lighting to suit activity levels.
"This project is an excellent example of UC Davis innovation making an impact beyond the campus," said professor Michael Siminovitch, director of the California Lighting Technology Center at UC Davis. "Adaptive lighting systems consistently achieve deep energy savings and reduce facility costs while streamlining maintenance. Hospitals nationwide will benefit by looking to this project as a model."
The outdoor lighting system was first demonstrated at UCD. As part of its Smart Lighting Initiative, the university in 2012 unveiled a campuswide exterior lighting retrofit designed by the California Lighting Technology Center that has reduced the campus's exterior lighting energy use by 86 percent (1,231,758 kwh annually), saving at least $120,900 in annual energy and maintenance costs.
At the hospital, a total of 57 lights were replaced with dimmable LEDs. Motion sensors, including a new type of long-range microwave sensor, control the lights so that energy use automatically drops when areas are vacant, yet plenty of light is available when and where staff and visitors need it.
To confirm this, the project team surveyed doctors, nurses, security guards and other hospital staff as part of the study. About 88 percent of those surveyed offered positive feedback on the quality of the new lighting.
"We're thrilled to work with UC Davis to put their expertise and technology into action at our facility," said Dave Mathews, senior director of plant operations and general services for NorthBay Healthcare. "It's our honor to be part of the first comprehensive study of network adaptive outdoor lighting for the health care sector, potentially transforming the energy efficiency of outdoor hospital lighting nationwide. Not only does this free up more financial resources for patient care, it's the right thing to do environmentally."
The lights are also connected to a wireless network lighting control system that lets facility managers monitor energy use, make adjustments and receive alerts when a light requires maintenance.
CLTC recently received an award for its work on the project, winning "Best Use of Lighting Controls in a Single Facility" from the Lighting Energy Efficiency in Parking Campaign. LEEP Campaign winners have saved a total of nearly 45 million kwh and $4 million per year by upgrading to energy-efficient lighting.
A great-grandad celebrating his 90th birthday has praised his life-saving kidney dialysis treatment - which he has had for the last 11 years.
Harry Wilson attends treatment at the Stockton dialysis centre three times a week with each session lasting four hours.
He has been doing this since 2003 and while he admits it can be an inconvenience, is extremely grateful to have recently turned 90.
Mr Wilson, from Stockton, said: I am a very lucky person, I know that.
I am still living, I have my family and money.
What more can you ask for?
Mr Wilson, who has 11 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren, has led an extremely active life.
A keen and talented sportsman, he won the FA amateur World Cup three times with Billingham Synthonia and represented England at Lawn Bowls.
During the Second World War, Mr Wilson was a Sergeant in Stockton Home Guard and was awarded for his services.
A draughtsman by trade, Harry worked for Billingham ICI before going on to work for King Wilkinson.
