You have worked hard all of your life, and finally, it’s time to be rewarded with a new phase of life in a master-planned community. Understandably, many people find it difficult to leave the home in which they raised their children and lived most of their lives up to this point. However, we find that once people move in, meet the neighbors, and experience life in a master-planned community, they realize how much they have gained.

Rediscovering Yourself

When you have kids to raise and a career to manage, day-to-day life can feel very scheduled and overwhelming. Many people do not find much time to truly explore their interests or hobbies. But you made it through! You worked hard, and now it is time to reap the rewards.

Living in a master-planned community gives you the perfect opportunity to rediscover yourself and embark on a new phase in your life. You can finally focus on yourself as an individual. 

Master-planned communities typically have a long list of amenities, such as pools and water parks; golf courses; fitness centers with regular classes; hiking, biking, and walking trails; special interest clubs; sports courts; and more. When searching for a master-planned community, look closely at these offerings and make sure they align with your interests. 

A New Network of Neighbors

Not only will you have the chance to dive into some new hobbies, but you will also inevitably meet new people with the same interests. One of the advantages of a master-planned community is that your neighbors are in the same exciting stage of life. You will already have that in common with every person who lives nearby. 

Beyond that, the activities offered in the master-planned community will help you find others with similar interests. Special interest clubs in communities bring people together who love the same hobbies, sports, books, music, and more.

Master-planned communities even plan social events, such as cook-outs, happy hours, and even dances. Many people tell us it sometimes feels like reliving they are reliving their youth, but this time, with more wisdom! 

When looking for the right master-planned community for you, ask to see an event calendar. If you love a good party, make sure you pick a community with plenty happening! 

Safety and Security

Thankfully, you can jump into this new adventure without worrying about your safety and security. Many master-planned communities have gates, cameras, and security guards. When choosing a master-planned community, ask about security. Make sure you choose a community in which you will feel safe.

Because master-planned communities are self-contained areas, they do not have the through-traffic of typical neighborhoods. They are often also built farther from high-traffic commercial and industrial areas. This adds another layer of security because any outsiders that enter the community will stick out to both residents and security guards. 

Of course, the lack of traffic also means less noise and fewer accidents. When you’re living in a master-planned community, everything is at your fingertips. Planners design these communities so that you don’t even need to leave unless you want to. Spend less time driving and enjoy having more time to yourself.

Building Your Home

Some people feel that homes in master-planned communities are too “cookie-cutter.” We can’t speak for every community, but Legacy Homes by Bill Clark only builds in master-planned communities in which we can construct homes designed for the individual buyers. 

Many master-planned communities, including many of those in which we build, allow multiple builders to design and construct homes. While the builders often have to follow some parameters so that the homes will have a cohesive style, they also have plenty of freedom to customize each home.

If you build a new home in a master-planned community with Legacy by Bill Clark, you will work with our design professionals to plan your home. Take a virtual tour of our Design Center to see where you will work with our designers to craft your home from a nearly endless list of options.
