Draft - Letter To Abutters

February  __, 2012

Dear                        ,


As a neighbor of 60 Plymouth Avenue, you may have heard that the property changed hands in December, 2011. A family from Dover, the Burmans, purchased the property as a summer home for their family of six. The existing house is in disrepair and does not offer a comfortable floor-plan for the family. The Burmans wish to raze it and replace it with a more sound, safe,  and aesthetically appealing home. We are proud that Archia Homes was selected to design and build the new home. As a local, award-winning home building company which specializes in high-quality construction, we focus on appropriate scale and beautiful design.

Because the existing house does not meet the set-back requirements as set forth in the zoning code of the Town of Duxbury, re-building another house on the property will require a Special Permit to be issued. There will be a hearing before the Zoning Board of Appeals within a couple of months to determine whether the Special Permit will be issued. We would like to present the proposed plans to you so that you can see how the planned home would enhance the neighborhood. With your endorsement of the proposal, we feel confident that the Special Permit will be issued. We feel strongly that a safer, more attractive and family-friendly home will be an improvement for everyone, and we hope to get your support for the project.

Please join us for coffee on            at 60 Plymouth Avenue so we can show you the proposed plan. Samantha Burman, the property owner, will be present and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have. If you will not be free at that time, we would be happy to meet with you on a more convenient date. Please contact us at 781-934-6141 or peter@archiahomes.com so we can arrange that.

Best wishes,



Peter Stames
