Brownwood Development Question?
Recently went thru the Villages Lifestyle program (for a week) and we are sold on the Villages. Like the concept, people, housing etc, etc. We are leaning toward waiting till the Brownwood development opens up to buy. Thought it would allow for close distance to the new center and expect this area to be as good or better than the other two. Anyone have any pros or cons on this idea? Would welcome any info or input since we are newbees to the area.
Thanks for any reply! |
Hi Bob - welcome to TOTV! You found the right place to get all the info you could ever want........and then some..........regarding TV.
You'll find tons of opinions/perspectives on what you're asking. They'll all be relevant - it simply depends on ones perspective. You might try using the 'Search' function, found on the toolbar at the top of the forum pages, to get a look at some prior threads/posts related to the same topic. Try entering 'Brownwood' as the search term and check through the results. Again, welcome to TOTV and enjoy! Bill |
We are hoping to build there too...if we ever get our house sold up North.
We are going to be one of those folks who move from one house to the other. We already own one..and we love it. Don't ask. |
Bobdel...your biggest consideration may be timing. If you want to move here in the next year or two, it'll still be awhile before Brownwood is built and thriving (2-3 years???? who knows....).
New construction south of 466A is just beginning, but, it is on the east end close to Morse in the new Village of Sanibel. Sanibel will be pretty far from Brownwood...you have to do the full traverse from east to west then south to Brownwood. Current new construction in the Village of St James or Tamarind Grove might be closer to Brownwood than Sanibel will be. The Villages stays pretty tight lipped about future development. It's hard to say just where they will build after Sanibel but it might be awhile before they build closer to the west side of 466A-south. If your timeframe is 3 years or more, you should have lots of choices. If it is sooner than that then these other factors come into play. Glad you enjoyed your visit and see the potential of life in the Villages. |

We are in Pennecamp Village and are about 4.5 miles to Lake Sumter and I think we figured out it would be about the same distance to Brownwood for us. It trully is not that far to get anywhere in TV. You have the time so not much of a factor for us for the distance unless we head over to Spanish Springs, then you need a little more time.

Don't worry about distance. Nothing is to far away. We get in our golf cart and go. We live in Bonita but travel to Orange Blossom, Lopez without any trouble. Remember, were retired. :ho:

Welcome !! If at all possible don't wait.As said above nothing is far away in the villages.Mulberry to Brownwood will be a trek but why the hurry? Between these two points is a way of life that is amazing! Get in on the fun now!
One thing to consider also is to buy before buildout or you may be paying a lot for tthe chance to live here! |
If you are going to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars into a house, make it the one you want, where you want... DON'T SETTLE..... If that means waiting 3 more years so be it. The Villages will always be here, if you want in on the fun, take a vacation here then come back officially when you're ready
