2012 Parade of Homes an Award-Winning Success


The 2012 St. Tammany Home Builders Association’s Parade of Homes event was a huge success for TerraBella Village and lots of fun! TerraBella showcased four homes in the Parade of Homes by four different builders. Visitors turned out in record numbers for the three weekend event, according to Ron Lee Homes who reported that 1939 visitors toured their parade home. Builders Ron Lee Homes and Conbeth Development declared it was by far the most visitors they had seen at a Parade of Homes event in the 20-plus years each of them had been participating.

TerraBella Village’s Sales & Marketing Director, Jeff Sonnenberg, was on hand in the Village Square to provide visitors with maps and information about the neighborhood, while TerraBella business GMFS Lending provided free ice cold water to hot and thirsty visitors. Those touring the parade townhome built by Martin & Malkemus were treated to shrimp expertly grilled by Mark Malkemus in the townhome’s spacious courtyard, perfect for entertaining.

During the second weekend of the Parade of Homes, TerraBella held its first ever ‘TerraBella Art Walk’ sponsored by Tripolo Gallery. The Art Walk brought out residents, business owners and plenty of visitors to the TerraBella Village community. A great time was had by everyone as we celebrated the evening with fantastic art, libations, good company, great food and live music. It was so much fun, that we’ve decided to do it again next year!

We are very excited to announce that two of our builders received awards from the St. Tammany Home Builders Association for their parade homes in TerraBella Village: Ron Lee Homes won 2012 Best Floor Plan and 2012 Realtors’ Choice award for their parade home on Bocage Court and Highland Homes was awarded 2012 Best Curb Appeal for their parade home on Chretien Point Ave. Congratulations to Ron Lee Homes and Highland Homes! We are very pleased and honored to have them as members of the TerraBella Builders Guild, as we are all our guild members.

We are also excited to announce that one of our builders, Highland Homes, sold their parade home the first week of the event. Congratulations!

We look forward to next year’s Parade of Homes and hope to see you there!

New Entrance Sign



TerraBella Village has a new entrance sign! Hand-painted and constructed from red cedar, this sign is fashioned after the village signs of yesteryear. We feel that it perfectly reflects the warmth and sense of community of TerraBella Village.
