Where is Buttonwood?
 
Looking at a Sunkissed model to buy that is in Buttonwood, but can't find it on any maps. Can someone please tell me where that community is? If anyone lives there I'd appreciate what your opinion of the neighborhood is. How long does it take to get to places by golfcart or car.

new maps have it, it's way in the southwest corner of TV,
buena vista and "lower" O'Dell, then go southwest from there,
to the best of my knowledge

Thanks JohnL, at least I have some idea where it is. I bought a new map about a year ago and it doesn't show it.

Visit www.thevillages4rent.com and click on the All Villages Map link and you should be able to find Buttonwood. I believe it is listed as #61 on that map.

We just bought our home site on Buttonwood, and should move from VA in mid May. We bought an "At Ease" style cottage. Can't wait to start our new lives at The Villages. Sandra

South of 466 of course. Odell to Bailey Trail and west on St Charles. It is a little west of Pennecamp and it has the two golf courses, Red Fish Run and Tarpon Boil. The neighborhood rec center not yet completed looks like it may be kind of a log cabin, country style. Some of the street names sound Appalachian. Buttonwood is the newest neighborhood in TV.

Kfierle, thanks, copied the map you mentioned. Just got a contract on my home here in S Fla. with a closing date of May 21. Hope to get up there as soon as the buyers are approved to purchase our home. Still looking at used and new but like the idea of new, but the use homes have a much more mature landscape through out the neighborhood. Wondering how long it would take to get to LSL by car or golfcart.

Buttonwood is about a 10 minute golf cart ride to Lake Sumter Landing....:beer3:

jtdraig, Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. Was hoping it wasn't too far from everything. 10 mins sounds great.

I like it! You forgot to say, "with apologies to Z".

I recommend a pre-own in Lake County, NO bond (that will save you about $20,000)and mature landscape, and if you own a gas car you can go anywhere

Buttonwood to LSL
 
not sure what the route would be to get to Lake Sumter Landing by golf cart in 10 minutes? Takes us about 10 minutes from Sabal Chase, which is right down Canal St., have to go thru the tunnel near the Courtyard Cabanas (lifestyle preview homes for now). Going to Sweetbay (grocery store) via Morse Blvd trail is a little quicker, but to navigate over to Market Square takes another few minutes.

Every village is close to something but I don't see how you get to LSL this quickly from Buttonwood. Buttonwood's probably great to get to Seabreeze and some of the newer executive courses, and will be a good location for the planned Brownwood town square (and probably a new championship course south of 466A if this is planned) off Buena Vista

We just bought a lot in Buttonwood and from Harding Path it took us 18 minutes on a rental cart, which are real beasts, so I figure it's about 13 mins. with a real golf cart.:crap2:
