A groundbreaking ceremony was held Oct. 4 at the Rehoboth Golf Park for a senior lifestyle living community. The Farm at Truitt Homestead will be a 90-unit single-family home development with future plans for an assisted living facility.
Ocean Atlantic/Schell Brothers said there is strong demand for a development that will offer amenities to assist maturing adults to live independently, and they are confident they will be able to fulfill that demand with The Farm at Truitt Homestead.
Roger Truitt, long time landowner, recently stated, “The Truitt family has owned the 23.5 acre Truitt Farm for more than a century. Three generations of Truitts have owned this property and, in keeping with my late father’s wishes, we recently partnered with Schell to preserve the Truitt name and legacy.” Truitt went on to say, “My brother Jim and I are the third generation of Truitts to own this property. In keeping with my late father’s wish, we have entered into a long-term lease with Ocean Atlantic and Schell Brothers.”
