When we built our house, we asked about sound-proofing the bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry room. The Villages designer said that we could add insulation to those interior walls and solid-core doors. However, we were told that although it would lessen the sound, it was not "true" soundproofing. It was not expensive, so we did it. It's certainly good enough for our purposes. When I close the laundry room door, I can barely hear the wash machine. But, it's not dead-silence. At that time, it was the best that The Villages would offer in their new-construction homes. They were very honest and did not try to upsell us into something that we would be disappointed with.
