Like the top executives they are, they knew a good thing the instant they saw it. They sensed the history and heritage of the lush woodland into which the homes are nestled. They savored the charm and beauty of the natural wonders that abound here: the sounds of singing birds and rustling trees; the friendly, curious small animals peeking out of the woods; the gently rolling hills, open to view because of the way the homes are grouped in small, intimate clusters. And there is more to Heritage Village: swimming pools, arts and crafts center, 18-hole golf course, wildlife refuge, shopping and professional services, picnic areas, riding trails, a theatre for legiti- mate productions and more. That's why they decided to move to this 1000-acre, adult condominium village. They came; they saw; they stayed. Interested? Write: Heritage Village, Southbury, Conn. 06488.
