A low monthly Druim Moir Homeowner's association fee maintains the 10 acres of commonly owned land which includes undulating pristine lawns, stately trees, and private entrance drives of this development, which is acclaimed for its conservation and architectural integrity. Local Wissahickon schist was used for the walls, Eastern granite for the trim.
