Golf Community Living in DeLand

Like waterfront property, people also move to Florida for golf course communities. Golf is a mainstay of Florida life. It draws players from young to old. For some, living in a golf-course community is the ultimate lifestyle. But is it right for you? ​
Below are a few considerations when deciding to live in a golf-course community. ​

Golf Courses & The Environment

The primary appeal of living on a golf course is the view from your backyard: gently rolling greens, clusters of mature trees, ponds, lakes and fountains, as well as an occasional wildlife sighting. However, the pesticides and fertilizers used to help enhance this beauty is a turnoff to some because of lasting environmental effects. The good news is that course ownerships are starting to employ more sustainable maintenance and management practices, a trend that is likely to continue as course owners are also finding that it’s cost effective.

Golf Courses & Privacy

​Bordering a golf course means not having to look at other people's houses behind yours. On the other hand, depending on where your house is situated, it may get hit with golf balls and invaded by golfers traipsing through your yard to find golf balls. Many HOA’s give owners little recourse when it comes to this. The only thing you can do is to consider the location of your house on the course. Homes closer to tee boxes are more likely to get increase golfer activity. An experienced real estate agent can give you the best advice when choosing the right house. 

Golf Course Noise

​While a golf course may be quiet at night, landscaping begins bright and early around sunrise, so you may have to put up with the sound of lawn mowers early in the morning. This, too, can be minimized when considering the location of your home on the course. Before you buy, ask potential neighbors about noise issues. 

The homes within a golf-course community are often bound by strict real estate covenants. While beautifully maintained homes along a manicured course can certainly enhance property values, you should read the fine print ahead of time.

DeLand Golf Course Community

The only current golf course community in DeLand is Victoria Hills. The beautiful 18-hole, par 72 golf course is surrounded by hundreds of oak hammocks and Augusta pines, carved meticulously from a sandy terrain and buffered by pristine lakes and flowering greens. The facilities are completed by the full-service restaurant and clubhouse. For more information on homes in Victoria Hills, contact our office today. ​
