Yes Bill that does help. We are thinking about making a purchase, but have hesitated because Buttonwood seemed so remote.

Thanks for your input.

Here's a little more of a perspective of what's planned for Brownwood, plus an additional shopping area that will be adjacent to it called Amtrim Dells:

Brownwood's on the right, Antrim Dells is on the left (both shaded in brown)

Granted, Buttonwood won't be within immediate walking distance of shopping, current or future. But there's going to be a bunch of stuff just a short golf cart ride away!! :MOJE_whot:

Bill

I live in Buttonwood and Lake Sumter is 5.2 miles away/ It takes about 15 minutes by golf cart to reach town. Brownwood might be a little closer when it is finished. If you are considering Buttonwood/Pennecamp area don't allow distance discourage you.

We just moved into Buttonwood 3 weeks ago --It is only 15 minutes to LSL by CART about 8 minutes by car ---Its a great place --

I forgot to mention that there are PLENTY of stores and restaurants, etc. where Buena Vista Blvd. intersects 466, north of Buttonwood. A little bit longer ride than getting to LSL but there is a bunch of stuff up there!

Bill

Welcome to Buttonwood. I know how excited you are..
We moved to Buttonwood 3 weeks back----------Love it!
We are on Beecher Path.

When I first moved to Pennecamp (next to Buttonwood) I took the car to LSL and shopping figuring it too far for a cart. Lately we are using golf cart. A much shorter drive then I anticipated.

We did it!!!!
 

Well, our trip was successful and we did buy a new home in Pennecamp! Close on the 20th and will actually be down around the 12th in prep for closing.

tomg - Congrats!!! Hope all the closing goes well. You'll enjoy your new life in TV!!

Bill

Thanks Bill, noticed your in Ohio, I grew up in Vermilion, but have been living pretyy much coast to coast the last 40 yerars!

Whew!! Vermillion would be a nice place to be from.....FAR from in the wintertime!! :) Too cold and too much snow up there on the lake!

I'd say TV should work out just fine for ya!!

Bill

A new smaller shopping area is coming on 466A -- next to the new County building. It will have a Sweetbay + other stores. Down Buena Vista, right on 466A to the next intersection (CR 462/135).

My bad - I stand corrected. Wonder if it'll be golf cart accessible?

Seems like there might be some other commercial development coming up along 466A west of Buena Vista as well. Time will tell!

Bill

My guess is yes -- you will cross 466A in the tunnel east of Buena Vista, then go down the cart trail to the first tunnel under the new part of Buena Vista and go west from there (none of this is open to carts yet but you can see what's happening if you travel down there by car or bike.).

Thanks!! We'll be down there for a while next month - we'll check it out!!
