Easier access into all The Villages has to offer

A cruise around the Village of Alhambra will likely reveal quite a few golf courts parked out front of homes or tucked away in open garages — just waiting for their owners to hop in and dash to some of The Villages’ amenities. There are so many of them to choose from, within what is the biggest retirement community in the world. And they’re available at a lower price point with a house in the gated Village of Alhambra.

Established homes, with the same perks

The houses within the Village of Alhambra are older than some others in The Villages, built in the late 1990s. But they’re still well-kept and come with compact but well-kept lawns that often stretch from just under to just over one-tenth of an acre. A lot of the homes in this neighborhood have The Villages’ “Patio Villa” floor plan, which is less than 1,000 square feet. That makes them more economically accessible. “That’s the lowest end of the market, the Patio Villa,” says Karen Santoriello, a local Realtor with Worth Clark Realty. “So it is quite popular.” There are also some bigger, ranch-style homes in the Village of Alhambra, that can reach up to around 1,700 square feet. The Patio Villa houses here can go for around $200,000, while the more expansive houses top out at closer to $400,000. The Villages requires that at least one person in each household be at least 55 years old, and no full-time residents can be under 19.

Going golfing is as simple as a trip around the corner

Among the Village of Alhambra’s advantages is that it’s surrounded by multiple community golf courses, including Glenview and El Santiago. Glenview features a total of 27 challenging holes, thanks to its three nine-hole circuits: “Fox Run,” “Stirrup Cup” and “Talley Ho.” El Santiago offers another nine holes, on a less demanding layout. Residents are also close to the Savannah Recreation area, which includes multiple shuffleboard and bocce ball courts and a community pool building undergoing an almost $400,000 renovation.

Spin over to Spanish Springs for regular fun

Another of this area’s draws is its proximity to the Spanish Springs Town Square, which is one of four signature town squares across The Villages. Spanish Springs, like the others, offers live music on a nightly basis — concerts happen at 5 p.m. each night except for the rare occasion that inclement weather interferes. Spanish Springs is also the spot of other special events like a Cinco de Mayo celebration and a Christmas in July classic car cruise.

Flavors for every taste, on the links or by the square

The close-by Glenview Country Club is not only a magnet for golf, but also for dining. There’s an on-site restaurant there whose Sunday brunch buffet — complete with an omelet station and a prime rib carving station — is popular. Locals can head over to Spanish Springs Town Square for more dining options, an area dotted with spots like Coastal del Mar Seafood Grill, where the crab cakes are a hit, and Amerikanos Grille, which blends Greek and American fare. The Spanish Springs area has a Publix and the UF Health The Villages Hospital, too. People enjoy how close the Village of Alhambra is to the Savannah Center as well, a roughly 800-seat venue that hosts several concerts every month, including tribute acts for KISS, Tina Turner and more. “It’s one of the larger venues that we have in The Villages, and it’s a great place for entertainment when you have more people,” says Sheila Davis, a local Realtor with Realty Executives in The Village, who has more than a dozen years of industry experience.

Carts are sometimes traded for cars

A network of golf cart paths wind all around the Village of Alhambra, and locals take advantage. Residents like simply hopping in their carts to travel over to some of the nearby amenities, because it’s economical and easier to park, Davis says. It’s a preferred method for many. “The good thing there is it’s probably 10 minutes in a golf cart to Spanish Springs, which is a real pull for people,” says Santoriello, a resident of The Villages herself. Those who need to commute out of town can take Buena Vista Boulevard to Sumter County Road 466, to connect to Interstate 75. I-75 links to places like Tampa, just over 80 miles south.
