Villages Adjacent to Coleman
We are looking to build around the Eastport area. Having learned recently that the Village of Well Point is likely to be the next area developed after Moultrie Creek, we are excited since it should be a reasonable golf cart ride to Brownwood/Sawgrass/Ednas/Fenney. I am not necessarily concerned about safety, but what should we be concerned about considering the area is adjacent to Coleman?

Nothing to worry bout , living next to a max security federal prison, housing terrorist and other high security inmates.

For years the old HS, had games, bands, and lights from the field. Yet rarely did residents complain about the sounds, or the lights. Why because for years TV residents packed the bleachers cheering home teams. Even if they had zero grandchildren playing. Bands practiced, kids played, we have zero issues with being near schools, or downtown Middleton. It’s not like traffic is 24/7 like a big city, both our boys (St Paul, Louisville) will actually walk instead of driving the traffic). Both went to Middleton sat watching drop offs, bands, practices, enjoyed just being around normal life, and not a bunch of very unhappy grumpy retired people who want zero noise.
I am in Richmond, can still hear the train whistle and wheels couple times a day, but especially at night. Funny I could hear same noise in Caroline (could hear certain bands, Pennacamp, Fernandina. I am amazed that so many people came from areas that didn’t have traffic, must be why many are so upset with the amount of cars that “Get in their Way”, on the way to grocery, appointments and such. We lived in an area with farms, lots of lakes, retail and grocery was 1/2 hour away. Yet my 6.8 mile trek to work could take 11 minutes (emergency call 3am) , or during rush hour up to 45 minutes. We sat outside on our lot in Richmond (4 streets away from turnpike noise, prior to homes built, we can hear humming of tires, close to the same as BV, but 90% less than backing up to any street in TV. So before you buy take couple lawn chairs and just sit, if children, music, cars, or cart noise bothers you. Pick something else. Best thing about TV, you can buy, sell, move easily, and make a profit. Average move was 2.5 times, but could be more. We are on our fourth house, have many friends who move every couple years, just to be in the new area. As far as the Coleman, one does realize prisons are all over the country, yet people live near them, drive by them (sign “don’t pick up hitchhikers), and work at them. Again if you fear being anywhere near where people are behind bars, and a fence, look elsewhere. My guess is if they breakout they will go as fast as they can, heading far away from the fence. Then maybe travel far north TV to grab clothes, and transport. But just my thoughts |
View etc
I would be more concerned about the cement factory view. If you buy, make sure the rear of your lot doesn’t have that view and it directly faces east.

Out of four homes in TV not one lanai faced east, one south great in the winter, not here for summer’s, one north, on the cool side, one southwest which was really good because of the view. This house is northeast, Sucks for pool in the winter, summer doesn’t matter. |

If near Marsh Bend Trail, you may see lights over the trees at night, no different than from any parking area. Wellpoint is just south of Monarch Grove, more than two miles away from Middleton so no issues with noise there. This area north of Eastport is a prime location and will be in very high demand. Similar to being close to Sumter Landing. It's within two miles of Magnolia Plaza, Sawgrass, Eastport, Middleton and near multiple new golf courses. Once Bexeley and Corbin Trail are open (soon), there will be quick, easy access to Sawgrass and the Turnpike. Most of 470 and the Eastport/Middleton area can be avoided during school traffic hour. The maps at this link might be helpful. William Vayens Maps |

Lots
1 Attachment(s)
Be careful Jefc1965. If you consider buying near the cement factory off of Marshbend and 470/ Central Parkway visit the area. There are lots with their rear view facing directly north. Unbelievably, they have a price tag of about 99k. This is the same direction as Coleman prison and the cement factory. I’m not saying you can see the towers or not see them depending on the lot. Just be careful. If I was buying there, I would certainly visit the property for the full ambiance. Here is a shot off google maps. The circled area is the cement factory. Note Marshbend Trail and 470. The towers are very large and tall. IMHO quite ugly also. You can easily distinguish where the prison is.

Coleman is expanding ever since Coleman Crossing was reborn!
