OAKBEND at Wellen Park | Is This the Smartest Gated Launch of 2025?

Today we're diving into one of the newest—and potentially most strategic—communities inside the growing Wellen Park master plan: Oakbend.

With just 181 homes, a gated entrance, and a location tucked between Downtown Wellen and CoolToday Park, Oakbend offers a rare combination of walkability, privacy, and builder credibility—with Toll Brothers and ICI Homes delivering a mix of luxury and semi-custom options.

In this video, I’ll cover:
