New Homes on 466.
 

Does anyone know the name of the company putting up a new housing tract
of 56 homes on 466 between Buena Vista and Morse? I do not think it is a Villages project. Can you imagine buying a new home there (I am sure they will be very nice) basically on the Palmer golf course and not being able to use the golf courses or the recreation centers or pools of The Villages? I also wonder if the homes will be fenced around them so there will not be views of the Palmer golf course. Does anyone have information on this project - completion projection, etc?

I also wonder why the Morse family allowed this to happen. I am sure the Morse family is powerful on zoning boards or why they did not buy the land just to ensure this would not happen.

I thought the new Bridgeport village was what was going in there?
 

Maybe we have different locations in mind.

Look in construction updates in Daily Sun. I seem to recall that these homes are part of The Villages and are being built by Developer.

Bridgeport at Laurel Valley.

The villages

Valley in the Villages??
 

We s'poze that if all those 'dozers can stack enough earth hither and yon, they can make a Valley in the Villages!

They should be finished & occupied when we visit in December

Personally, I just love that the highest "mountain" I've seen so far in Florida is a mound of dirt made by earthmovers in TV.

Yep. It is an all Premier home neighborhood.
 

That will be an all Premier neighborhood. Hawkwind told me about it. He really watches from afar on the new areas and sends me updates because he knows we are shopping for another house as soon as we sell our Cincy one.

Hawkwind, can you tell how to go to Sumterpa.com and find all of the lots layed out there in that new area and it even has the street names?

I think you go to sumterpa.com, press search and type in Bridgeport and go to the virtual map and you will be at Bridgeport at Lake Sumter on Turnberry Forest and you edge it north across the Palmer and you see it all layed out.

Did that make sense? It didn't make sense to me either and I wrote it. I need coffee.

Hawkwind will explain when he reads this.

Thanks for the good information. I did not know anything about Bridgeport at Laurel Valley - but I am glad to see it is a Villages development. I figured they would be nice homes whoever put them in but an all Priemier development is great.

To look at this site got to the Sumter county property appraiser web site at http://www.sumterpa.com/GIS/Search_F.asp and on that page enter D15G046 in the parcel ID field and then hit the run search in the lower portion of the window. It will bring up property information on that parcel and now if you click on aerial map over on the right it will bring up the entire development area. You can now sue the map icons to move around that area and also click on the info icon to find out more details about the lot. It sure would be interesting to see what they actually sell for without a home.

Great site. Use it all the time.

One week ago and previous to this, there was a huge berm of dirt right near 466. Does anyone know what this is for? A golf cart tunnel?

That's probably just the excess dirt that is dug up from laying sewer and other utilites. I'm sure it will all be pushed back to prescribed elevations needed for construction.

Yup, Ooper's right. It was the left over dirt from the infrastructures (also my "mountain").
