OP asked for suggestions. Some people believe a new home is better without spending much time looking at preowned. They see 3 or 4 homes with flower wall paper or mismatched flooring and think, not for me!
The OP has time. There are PLENTY of preowned homes that are beautifully updated and have a lot to offer. Our new home is stunning. We have a beautiful view of a lake not a retention pond,. Good finds are out there! It is silly not to look at all options before buying.
The idea that younger people live in the south and older live in the north is misguided. We have plenty of neighbors who are in their sixties and a few in their fifties. My husband and I are in our sixties. We adore our older neighbors.Some have more energy than all of us young ones combined. Plus, they host some awesome parties.There are MANY wonderful people who live throughout the Villages. If you are new to their village, they welcome you with open arms.
