A community built to preserve open spaces
In the 1960s, Dr. H. Lewis Batts Jr. and businessman Burton H. Upjohn envisioned an environmentally friendly community. They purchased 288 acres of land with streams, lakes, and forests and designed a neighborhood that blended seamlessly with its natural surroundings. This partnership resulted in Parkview Hills, a community where environmental stewardship and thoughtful planning set a high standard that continues to shape the neighborhood. Today, this area boasts a tight-knit community with access to water on Lake Hill N’ Brook, upscale dining, parks, and quality education. The Parkview Hills Club is known for its events that bring neighbors together.
