I tried the search here and on google and am pulling my hair out trying to find color palette choices. I'm getting ready to close on a stucco house in CDD 5 (Winifred) and would like to repaint the house as it is fairly faded, and honestly not overly fond of the current color. Does anybody know if there is a color palette to choose from and where to find it? I know I can apply with ARC on a color if we want but curious if there are "pre-approved" choices.

Call ARC (community Standards 352-751-3912) and discuss with them. I am GUESSING Sherwin Williams may have access or be able to show you the colors. One work of caution, we built our house, and since it was by itself we could choose our color (from the palate), when our neighbors built they wanted the same color and were denied they had to choose another color. ARC will be able to tell you the rules for your CDD.
Also, if you can drive around the neighborhood and you see a house with a color you like, mention the address when you talk to ARC, they can look up the color and let you know if there are any restrictions.

I found these images in a Google Image search.

We recently repainted our house. We drove out to one of the newer neighborhoods and found a color scheme we liked. We called the Villages Warranty dept, I believe, gave them the addresss, and they told us the official paint color.

You still need ARC approval, the color palettes are not the same for all of the CDDs, and the newer sections have different colors from the older sections.

Florida Paint knows approved colors.

I just went through the process. You have to go to the Admin office at Lake Sumter Square. They have a color palette there for residents to choose a pre-approved color.

Call 352-751-3912 to set up an appointment to make your choice.

Thanks for all the replies, We are hoping to close on the house soon. I'm just trying to get ideas before we get down there, currently in Washington State.

I wouldn’t worry, in our village people seem to paint what ever they want. We have sky blue, dark brown all the colours of the rainbow. So do what you want

This is the way to go. Every color for each district is on a board. They also have the shingle colors to see if color works. You do not need ARC approval for these colors.

If you want a different color, other than in your approved area. Then you need to get ARC papers to see if they will approve the color choice.

Isn't this the truth? Community Standards? What is that?

The Villages Property has the formula for the color used on your house. You take it to ShErwin Williams and they will create the correct color.
It has to be that color, for uniformity.
Don’t waste your money doing anything else. It is why everything looks so nice here..community standards!

ARC approval is required unless you use an approved color. They have them on the wall at the ARC office in Sumter Landing above Starbucks. Separated by district

[Sunflower33]

You have to call the warranty department and they will give you your color or allowed colors
