The Central Florida region of South Lake County has long been a haven for retirement communities. There are several Resort Style Communities located in Clermont, Groveland, Minneola and Leesburg.
It’s not a new concept and there is good reason for it. We have great weather, no state income tax (I’m not a tax advisor, but this is a pretty big deal). We’re close to beaches, theme parks, nature reserves and parks with natural springs. Our housing prices are comparably lower than the North East or Pacific Coast States.
So the Orlando area and specifically South Lake County is a really great place to purchase a home in a 55+ community.
It’s also a great place to just call home.
Living in a 55+ community is not just for retirement. Many residents continue working a full or part time job. Moving to a 55+ Active adult community may seem like you are on the road to retirement, which doesn’t sound too bad, but these communities have a lot to offer anyone over 55 even if you’re still going to work every day.
The 55+ Active Adult communities in Clermont, Leesburg, Groveland and soon to be in Minneola, are great for anyone working locally or commuting to Orlando or anywhere in Central Florida. All of these communities are within minuets of the Florida Turnpike, which is very convenient.
If you are not familiar with the Turnpike, it’s not only is a great way to travel North and South through the state of Florida, it also leads to most other major highways, such as 429, 408, I-4, 528 and 417. These highways will get you to just about anywhere in Central Florida that you need to get to in a relatively short time.
The 55+ Active Adult lifestyle itself is worth any extra miles or commute time.
If you or any of your friends or loved ones are interested in learning more about 55+ community living, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
