Windward Lake Club – Windward Lake Club is situated across 19-acres along the southwest edge of Lake Windward. The club features a world-class tennis center, with twenty lighted hard surface tennis courts, two clay courts, two platform courts, and six ten-years-old and under courts.

Hear From Our Clients

“Having Brian as our Realtor was the right decision. He was very supportive, and always open to explore options to get the best deal for our house. He did a terrific marketing campaign, coupled with some Open-House events, that made finding the right customer a smooth process. He also has the right network of experts willing to help. We definitely recommend Brian for your next real estate deal.”

- Giancarlo & Ingrid M.

“I recently sold my “Beloved” home that I had lived in for 35 years. I adored it but felt it was a good time to sell and that I was in need of a change. Neighbors of mine had used Brian and spoke very highly of him. What I appreciated most was his calm but thorough manner during this process. I cannot recommend him enough. I think he’s terrific!”  

- Suzanne R.

“We had a great experience working with Brian. He helped us sell our home and find a new home, as we downsized. He guided us through both the sale and purchase processes and both occurred without any issues. Brian was hands-on in marketing and showing the home we sold. When looking for a new home, he worked with us on defining the features we wanted, sent us new homes to look at regularly, and got us in to see new homes as soon as they came on the market. It was a pleasure to work with Brian.”

- Rodney & Tammy C.

“Brian is a gentleman and a true professional. He helped us sell our place and find a new one, breaking down what can be a very intimidating process into manageable steps. In particular, when it came to the costs, we were clear on what to expect for both the sale and the purchase before even embarking on this adventure. In the end, we had multiple offers on our place within the first two days and now live in a new place we love. We would highly recommend him to anyone.”

- Tom & Erin B.

“We tried to sell our home on our own at first, but quickly became overwhelmed. After researching several potential agents, we chose Brian. We couldn’t have made a better decision! We felt an immediate connection with him from the first time we spoke on the phone. He listened to our questions and concerns and provided guidance throughout the entire process. His knowledge and many years of experience helped ease our minds and limit the amount of stress placed on our family. He made us feel like we were his only client (even though we knew he had several others he was also working with). We would highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.” 

- Drew & Jessica R.

“We can’t thank Brian enough for his hard work in making the daunting process of buying and selling a home more than manageable. His knowledge, patience and expertise made both our purchase and sale a success. We are thankful to have been 100% confident in our agent’s character and abilities. Thank you, Brian.”

- Dave & Beth S.

“I can’t say enough about my experience working with Brian. Even during a time when some people may opt to ‘do it themselves’ because the market is seller friendly, Brian proved his worth time and time again. He took every aspect of this process and made it seamless, easy, and QUICK. Not only is Brian an awesome human being but he’s truly a knowledgeable professional who is trustworthy, thorough, & thoughtful. The trifecta of agents. Moving is stressful, but working with him was literally the only part of the process that was painless and profitable!” 

- Sharon H.

”Brian was thorough and meticulous in helping us find our new home. He made sure we knew all of the options available to us. Brian was extremely responsive and listened to our needs. He was a calming presence when we were stressed and he always remained optimistic and supportive. We are happy to call him our Realtor, but mostly importantly, our friend.”

- Bryan & Heather B.

“After observing Brian’s doggedness, it was immediately evident that we had chosen the right agent. Brian’s impeccable character shined through from the very beginning. Because of the trust that he was able to instill in us, we were very comfortable letting go and having him take on every detail, right through closing. Brian is an A-player. We highly recommend both Brian and Sotheby’s.”

- Tim & Christine F.

“We never write testimonials, good or bad, but the real estate services provided by Brian Henson deserve a break from the norm. From the moment we met Brian he has been masterfully prepared, the highest standard of professional, and beyond kind and understanding. We have bought and sold several homes and have never had the process go as seamlessly as it did with Brian. He made sure we were aware of all developments and yet took all of the burden of the details off of us. We will always recommend Brian to our friends and family when they are looking to buy or sell a home.”
