A neighborhood that helps one stay young

Home to a popular recreation center and a pair of executive golf courses, the Village of Belvedere is an active neighborhood conveniently located in the heart of The Villages, Central Florida’s premier 55-plus destination. Whether by foot, bike or golf cart, residents enjoy quick and easy access to a core of recreational amenities for which the master-planned community is known. “One thing you have to remember is that when people come to Florida and target an area where they want to live, a lot of them want that younger lifestyle,” says Donna Hines, a Realtor with Re/MAX Premier Realty and Villages resident. “They don’t want to just grow old before their time.”

Recreation center, two golf courses in the neighborhood

The Pimlico Recreation Center, named after the racetrack that hosts the Preakness Stakes Triple Crown race, offers a quaint setting for neighbors to horse around or just enjoy a relaxing day by the pool. Billiards, card games and dance classes are popular indoor activities, while pickleball, shuffleboard and bocce can be contested on outdoor courts. While no one under 19 is allowed to reside in The Villages, children are welcome throughout the community and often can be found immersed in activity at the community’s recreation centers. The nearby Saddlebrook Recreation Center offers several Camp Villages programs designed around activities for residents and their grandchildren ages 3-16. Adjacent to the neighborhood’s rec center are the Pimlico and Churchill Greens 9-hole courses. The Pimlico course is known for its level of difficulty as water comes into play on most holes. New greens, tees and fairways were added to the Churchill Greens course during a renovation in the fall of 2023. More than 40 9-hole courses in the community are connected by the executive golf trail. More than 50 golf courses total are available to any resident who pays a $195 monthly amenities fee. That fee also includes access to more than 3,000 clubs and social activities. “One of the great things here is that if you can’t find a club that interests you, you can start your own club and The Villages will back you,” Hines says. The neighborhood also is conveniently located next to one of the community’s five softball complexes. The Buffalo Glen facility holds evaluations every Tuesday morning during the season for men and women interested in competing.

Nearby commercial corridor, popular town square provide options

The County Road 466 commercial corridor is just blocks away from the neighborhood. It provides access to grocery shopping options that include Publix and Fresh Market and big-name retailers such as Walmart, Home Goods and Bealls. Chains such as Bonefish Grill and Starbucks populate the corridor, but more diverse dining and shopping options can be found at Lake Sumter Landing, a buzzy waterfront destination that is the most popular of the community’s town squares. It is less than 5 miles away via County Road 466 and can be accessed via golf cart. Residents can shop and dine in the shadow of a lake that hums with the activity of guided tours, kayak floats and dragon boat races. The square’s several dozen stores include Barnes & Noble and many independent boutique shops. Dining options are anchored by several waterfront restaurants, including Lighthouse Point Bar & Grill. Residents can catch a movie at Epic Theaters Old Mill Playhouse and enjoy live music 365 nights a year.

Three-bedroom homes and cozier villas

Belvedere offers a variety of single-family housing options. One- and two-bedroom patio villas start in the mid-$200,000s, while larger courtyard villas typically list for around $300,000. Ranch-style and contemporary model homes make up the bulk of traditional single-family housing. The typical dwelling offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with standard features that include an attached garage and a spacious front yard.

Entire community is accessible by golf cart

One of the potential drawbacks to living in The Villages is traffic, as the community covers almost 60 square miles and has almost 150,000 residents. Residents can alleviate some of that by traveling in their golf carts. There’s even an app that helps guide them through the community. Hines says a trip from one end of The Villages to the other takes about two hours. “I’ll do that sometimes just to be adventurous and see what’s happening with new developments,” she adds. “I love the privilege of being able to travel by golf cart – when it’s not 900 degrees out.” For car travel, Belvedere Boulevard provides easy access in and out of the neighborhood and connects to County Road 466, which leads to U.S. Highway 441 and Interstate 75. The former connects to Orlando about 60 miles southeast, and the latter connects to Tampa and other Gulf Coast cities further southwest. Orlando Sanford International Airport is a 45-mile drive. Both coasts are roughly 90 minutes away.

Village of Belvedere residents can travel direct to Orlando via US Highway 441.
