Building out 466 & 466A

[Happinow]

Does anyone think they will ever build up 466/466A? It seems to me that the stores, Target, Walmart, Kohls, Home Depot, lowes, etc. are all a bit far away for those of us in the newer section of TV. I sure wish they would build shopping centers, like those on 441, closer so those South of 466 didn't have to go so far to get to them. Am I being a fuddy duddy or do others feel the same? Where I come from I'm used to driving about 5-7 minutes to get to anything I need. Seems a long way out to 441 from Sanibel. My mind was just thinking......

[Bill-n-Brillo]

More commercial building along 466? I personally would have my doubts. The area where the villas on the SE corner of Morse and 466 are was previously zoned Commercial - TV opted to get the zoning modified and build the villas.

Much more will probably happen along 466A and also further on down in the Brownwood area.

Bill :)

[bike42]

There's still a lot of open commercial land along 466 -- i.e., between Red Lobster and Golden Corral -- plus all the land near Bealls -- no indication of how soon it will be built out, but I'm sure they're looking for tenants.

[Bill-n-Brillo]

Good point, bike42! My bad. I was thinking more about potential new areas on closer towards Morse Blvd.

Bill :)

[NJblue]

Since the area around 466 is fully built-out from a residential perspective, my guess is that the conversion of the area where the Haciendas were built from commercial to residential was a capitulation from the builder that there just is not enough demand from commercial tenants to be in that area. Hence I would imagine the wide open areas around Buffalo Junction will take a long time to fill out.

Now, the area around 466A and 44 are a different story. The area along the north side of 466A from BV into Wildwood is zoned for commercial, medical and apartments and will likely be built out as the areas south of 466A are completed. (Of course these are non-Villages owned properties and hence won't have golf cart access). The area to the immediate west of Brownwood is supposed to be a mall (Anterim Dell) and they appeared to be putting some infrastructure in for it the last time I drove by so apparently they are serious about it.

I have also heard a rumor that the area near the new interchange with the turnpike and the Morse Ave. extesion was going to be developed into a mall. This makes sense, but I have never heard it as anything more than a rumor.

[NotGolfer]

When this community is built out there will be 110K folks (give or take depending on the time of year). So we're a mid-sized city and not like the small towns some of us have moved here from. Larger cities calabrate the distances by minutes...how long it takes to drive here and there. It's said that there will be plenty of commerce built down along 44 and I'd suspect some more on 466A towards Wildwood. There's also room for some things by Colony so I'd not stress too much. The builders don't do anything til they view it's needed...they do their homework so know how to do it to fit the needs. For the people down in Buttonwood...you'd have to go by car but Wildwood does have a Winn Dixie and a CVS...and they're not bad stores. If you explore the surrounding areas there is Walmart etc along 441/27 in Leesburg as well. It takes some getting used to but eventually one does acclimate with time here.

Not a problem for us .... you should have just bought sooner!:girlneener:(just pulling your leg).
Actually, plans for major shopping areas seem to come and go over the years, and some stick. The biggest one announced was for a major shopping mall to be built on 466. It was touted as being bigger and more grand than Paddock Mall in Ocala. That was before JC Penney decided not to build and there was talk of a freeway exit off the interstate (not the toll road). Today, most of the proposed Mall Area remains open with the WalMart Super Center being the only major building on one end of that land.
I assume what eventually gets built in the newer southern area will depend on what happens to all that vacant land extending south to the toll road. Lots of homes would result in lots of new stores.

[Penguin]

For me personally, I dont want a huge shopping center near where I live. That was the draw for me to buy and eventually live in the Villages. Nice quiet hometown feel. If I want to get aggravated I can deceide to drive 20 miles. Plus I think most everything I will need is within golf cart range. If you want big shopping malls live in a big city. Done with that!!!!

[gerryann]

How far by golf cart to grocery shop (Publix) from...St. James, Buttonwood?

[Skybo]

How far by golf cart to grocery shop (Publix) from...St. James, Buttonwood?

About 10-15 minutes to Colony Plaza is my guess.

[Eve2278]

I don't know what The Villages has planned, but I tell you I have never been disappointed. I'm am sure they have all of this figured out. Look what has been built in the last four years on 466 and Lake Sumter was up and running for a couple before they did that. I'm sure once Brownwood is built for a couple of years more places will come in. I would think they would want the villagers to be spending their money on the new business within Brownwood without any competition from the surrounding outside area in the beginning.

Happi, once you learn the back road directions, you'll find it's not that long to get to 441 from your area.

Go east on 466A to Micro Racetrack Road and turn left. Go all the way to the end which is Lake Ella Road and turn right. Go less than a mile to Rolling Acres Road and turn left and take it all the way to 441.

Also, as someone else mentioned, there's a Walmart in Leesburg which is actually closer than the one on 466.

[villages07]

And, you can get to that Walmart in Leesburg without ever having to go on 441/27.

Take 466a heading east from Colony, turn right on 25/Dixie Ave at the light just after the Fruitland Park Post Office. Follow that for several miles and turn left when you get to a stop sign. That road goes around the north side of the Walmart parking lot. (Check out a map/GPS to be sure)

There's also an Aldis and Dollar Store in the strip center just south of Walmart.

[k2at]

The concern u have regarding the distance u travel is a valid one. I bought 3 years ago in Bonnybrook although I looked in your area. But the distance to all services discouraged me from buying so far south. I believe things will get better as they build up 466a, but I did not want to wait five years to see the commercial development come to conclusion. In Bonnybrook I am 5 to 7 minutes from everything.

Be patient.

[graciegirl]

Being close to whatever you want to be close to is a something that you must consider before buying.

The new houses are in certain areas only and the lions share of the used houses are under six years old. That is pretty new!!

If you wait long enough the area around the new builds will be like the area around the old builds.

Some people like the ride through lush foliage and blooming flowers on pristine streets and others need their beer right NOW.

[Happinow]

Thanks everyone. To those that gave short cut directions, I jotted them down so I can explore. We will be in TV as FROGS, so I expect that through the years 466a will be built up. Between now and then, I have a plenty to do close to home so I'll just wait it out!

[tghoul]

I was hoping the cart path to the new library would run alongside 466A. After seeing the recent dirt moving and cart paths I don't feel they can run a cart path from Buena Vista to the library beside 466A.

[TicoTexan]

Here is a thread about development of the Northwest Corner of Buena Vista & 466A.

https://www.talkofthevillages.com/forums/villages-florida-general-discussion-73/trailwinds-village-49559/

Looks like substantial commercial development is possible - it would be great!

Thanks for the tip - good info!!

Honestly, for all the times we've been through Leesburg over the course of time, I never realized there was a WalMart there until we were in TV last month! Drove by there many times - just never noticed it.

AND that Walmart has different " stuff" than the two inside the confines of TV. When we first moved here I was able to get some decent art supplies there that weren't carried in the other two. That may have changed.

Your hopes will be realized, and a cart path will be built.
This has been noted and confirmed on this site more than once.

Oh, goody. Here's another place to reminisce about how things were back in '05. :jester:

When I needed things like a tv, new linens, and such, I was told "You've got to go Ocala for that stuff!" Horrible!

Now, every thing is right here!

I understand Happinow's concerns, though. One just has to bite the bullet. Oh, and avoid driving around when everybody's here!

I hope they don't build closer which brings traffic. I'd rather drive a little longer and farther than have this area turned into the congestion they have up north. I too was used to 5-7 minutes to shopping, most of it setting at red lights.
The post that said to take Micro Race Track road was right on. It's a beautiful ride in the country where you actually see cows and horses and almost no traffic. In a couple minutes you'll cross 466 and be to 441 shortly to the congestion and shopping.

yup, I've gone that way! They actually have a fabric department at that Walmart!

[Golfer in Sanibel]

I believe the area around 466A and Morse or the Brownwood 44A area will attract big box retailers as soon as they believe it is financially advantageous to locate there. As this area fills in with residents the need and the pay-off will be there for the retailers.

I agree but I just hope they are not too close to the houses. Also pay attention to that large track of land, over 900 acres, that is for sale on the south side of 466A just over the Sumter/Lake line in Lake County.

The Morse people, if you can believe them, said 2 years ago that they were not going to buy any more land.

And they've also been saying for the last 10-12 years that they would never again step foot into Lake County and they haven't. That doesn't mean that some other developer won't buy it either for homes or commercial.

[bike42]

I am one of the few who does believe that.

I agree, Gracie; if the Morses wanted the land they would have bought it a long time ago.

Were used to driving 40 miles for shopping so the few small stores there are a welcome site. Understand you concern. Wonder if Wildwood will feel the building urge to develop and expand?

[jblum315]

Wildwood is already changing. I expect that once the buildout is done Wildwood will be completely different, new businesses, restaurants etc. The new county center/library is just the beginning.

[Bogie Shooter]

Couple years ago Wildwood expanded the city boundries in all four directions. Smart move by the city fathers.

[mulligan]

The only thing that's a cause for concern is that the wildwood city council just changed the zoning of the cattle ranch between tamarind grove and 466a to multi use. Opens the door for almost anything. I'm hoping for a nuclear power plant.

From looking at the Lake County land map it appears to me that it would be very difficult to tie that large property to The Villages so I seriously doubt the Morse family would be interested in it.
I tend to think that property could be prime for a commercial development.

[Bill-n-Brillo]

A popcorn store, perhaps? :popcorn:

Isn't that where Trailwinds Village is going?

[mulligan]

That's a proposal, but it's partly based on grant money, and not cast in stone. If the landowner/rancher gets an offer he can't refuse, it could be anything.

[skyguy79]

Isn't that where Trailwinds Village is going?

Mike et al, if you go to the pdf link below, you can scroll down to page 98 and reduce it to about 30% if you can. That will give a pretty good view of the plans for the development of the area between Tamarind Grove and 466A as being discussed and according to the document on which it resides.

I noticed in The Daily Sun yesterday an article saying that Wildwood has approved rezoning of 157 acres along 466A for development. The change allows use of the land for a mix of retail, medical, office, residential, and recreational. This property is on the north side of 466A between Buena Vista and Powell Road. Below is the link to the town meeting minutes. Wish I knew how to reduce it to the applicable pages. Anyway pages 75 - 108 are pertinent to this project. I found pages 79 & 98 interesting.

Village girl, you are right except for one thing....I didn't see any lots available in TV to build on that was any closer to shopping. If there was, our realtor didn't show them to us. We wanted to build and not buy resale. If we can't get to the shopping, they need to bring the shopping to us!

It’s not just about the distance to shopping areas. It’s also about the growing population and how crowded the shops are. Retail locations on and south of 466a will also cut down on the amount of vehicular traffic travelling through TV to get to the north side. It will be good for all of us, regardless of our location in TV.

Our sales agent told us this week, that there will be a new Villages hospital down off 44, (they just got the go ahead); where there are medical facilities there is usually retail. I don't want to see fast food row, but some retail options would be nice at that end of the community(we willbe inCharlotte).

[graciegirl]

They have built it. The commercial will come.

Rome wasn't built in a day.

The Villages....most of what we see, was done in the last decade.

Patience.

[keithwand]

Not!

Now wait a minute. Folks think Orlando is Disney and most have never actually been to O town proper.

Check online for Baldwin Park (within the city limits) and Winter Park.

Both are very nice not to mention numerous other neighborhoods within Orlando and the convenience of everything within a few miles. The problem is its a working town and not much to do for retired people.

We actually thought the same about TV; not us, until we visited and realized its hard to judge anywhere without visiting. We will miss it but look forward to out TV move.

AND thankfully for us the TV prices are lower than where we are so we can add a pool, cage and summer kitchen for the same money.

Lets hope it's a slow build if and when it even happens! I am really surprised that TV did not acquire that tract of land?

[Skybo]

Which tract of land? If you are talking about the land on the north side of 466A (adjacent to Tamarind Grove), I’m sure that TV would have acquired the land if the owners were willing to sell it to them. I’m guessing that the land owners were holding out for something more lucrative. I’ll be sad to see the cow pastures go, but I suspect it’s going to happen pretty quickly.

[CarGuys]

Right as it stands now it is half gone.

The lower section of Tamarind Grove is safe from the proposed new commercial park and homes. The 255 page Wildwood documents have this section still zoned as Agricultural.

When we bought we knew it would some day go. I figure even if it did a 25 foot mandatory buffer of landscape would be better than looking at someone's Lani.

I do enjoy the cows coming down in the evening to graze right next to the house. I'm thinking a salt lick would make me popular and maybe stomp out the Gophers! LOL

None of the property on 466A that is within Wildwood City Limits is zoned agricultural.

[CarGuys]

Read the 255 page report look at the maps and zoning and you can read and see what I was refering to.

Which is the non village property in back of Tamarind now a cow pasture. Wildwood just approved the construction. So I assumed.

Sorry for any confusion. My reference was to the in print documentation of that land in back of our homes which is still as per the survey zonned agricultural. Or so the map in front of me states.

The new TrailWinds Village is above the hill from us.

HCarGuys, page 78 of the 255 page document shows that the property behind you is zoned CMU (Central Mixed Use). This is the same zoning as the property where Trailwinds Village is going to be built.

You are correct to say that the current use is agricultural. The same is true for the Trailwinds Village property.

This is ALL very confusing and difficult for the lay person to understand and follow. I should know since I own a home on Ansley Path which abuts the proposed Trailwinds Village project. I have been following this for many months - making phone calls and attending meetings, etc. In fact, I wrote the letter that appears on page 104 of the 255 page document. Lately, I have felt like I'm back in school attending Civics Class as I have learned about the operations of the City of Wildwood and Sumter County.

Having attended meetings about this, what is your perception about the reality of this plan and its time-frame? From perusing the layout, it does look fairly inviting as far as aesthetics are concerned (at least from a prospective of a potential user of this development ... not sure about from a neighbor perspective.) The way that they show many separate buildings spread around the plot rather than a massive centralized structure sounds appealing. I would also think that the change from general apartments to senior housing will lead to a quieter environment.

[champion6]

Re: the plan - It has been explained to us that this is only a conceptual plan. The number, shape and location of the buildings may change. We won't know more until detailed site plans are submitted to Wildwood for review.

Re: the timing - Honestly, I can only guess. And your guess would be as good as mine. I have been told that it is more likely that the retail/office portion near 466A will be developed before the assisted living portion is developed. I'm guessing a couple years, but don't know.

The conceptual plans were created by the developer (Word family) so that Wildwood could create an ordinance to define the project. But the plans could change and Wildwood would review them and then revise the ordinance.

There is more uncertainty... the property is For Sale. If the Word family sells the property, the new owner could very well completely change the plans. Of course, any changes must be submitted to Wildwood for review.

Does that mean I could still get my nuclear power plant??
