About Windsor
Established in the early 1990s, Windsor encompasses approximately 472 acres and features a collection of luxury estates, village homes, cottages, courtyard residences, and custom homesites. The master plan was created by renowned New Urbanist planners Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, whose vision emphasizes walkability, beautifully designed public spaces, and architecture inspired by classic Anglo-Caribbean style.

History of Windsor
Windsor was founded by W. Galen Weston and Hilary M. Weston, who envisioned creating a private seaside village inspired by traditional coastal communities. Construction began in the early 1990s, with the community quickly earning international recognition for its innovative planning, architecture, and commitment to preserving open space and natural surroundings.
Today, Windsor continues to evolve while maintaining its original vision. The community’s North Village represents the final phase of development, adding new residences, green spaces, and amenities while emphasizing sustainability and environmental stewardship.
