When you decide you want to make your home in one of Greensboro’s active adult communities, there are probably a lot of things you are excited about. For one, you may be looking forward to connecting with other 55+ adults, or you may be motivated by the lifestyle and resort-like amenities 55+ communities offer. You may even be thrilled by the chance to design your home from the ground up.

For decades, Del Webb, one of the nation’s best quality home builders, has been building new residences in neighborhoods perfect for active adults . From our collection of dream house floor plans to our curated selections of granite countertops, hardwood floors, backsplashes and more, we offer you the opportunity to pick a plan and options that match your style. Enjoy a layout with ample natural light in the kitchen, or, opt to add a tray for the airy feeling that vaulted ceilings provide. Our floor plans give you with the very best in inspired design.

Our new homes also feature other perks, like built-in wiring that helps to minimize WiFi dead spots. Easily stream your favorite channels, surf the web or video chat with the grandkids from any room in your house. Or, add other smart home technology options like smart thermostats, garages and locks that make it easier to keep your house feeling comfortable and secure when you are out enjoying time in Greensboro’s neighborhoods.

When you move to Greensboro, you are likely looking to take advantage of all there is to do in the area. While Atlanta and Athens are not too far away, some of the attractions in Greensboro that are favorite among the area’s active adult communities include a visit to the pristine waters of Lake Oconee. Enjoy an afternoon boating or take time to explore other activities offered around the lake. Visit the local blueberry farms and pick your fruit or stop by a brewery for a quick pint. If you are a golfer, be sure to try a round at one of the area’s six courses at Reynolds Lake Oconee. And, if you are looking to spend more time in-town, downtown Greensboro is host to several festivals year-round and offers plenty of local dining and shopping opportunities.

If the retirement part of retirement communities is still some time out, or, if you would like to explore a second career, Del Webb has new homes near some of the largest employers in Greensboro and the surrounding area. Residents can consider opportunities at Daniel Corporation, the Green County Board of Education and St. Mary’s Good Samaritan Hospital to name a few, making Greensboro a great place for educators, medical and real estate professionals.

With so much to do, it is no surprise so many people choose Greensboro’s 55+ communities for their next home.

Now that it’s time to start thinking about buying your dream home, you will want to consider how to structure your retirement budgeting so you can feel comfortable with your decision. A good place to start is to understand the values of homes in over 55 communities in the area, so you know what you might need to set aside. Next you should factor in cost of living before looking at home financing options. Greensboro’s cost of living is higher than national average, but its lower healthcare costs offer a good balance for active adults. Residents will also appreciate that Georgia does not currently tax Social Security benefits and has a moderate property tax rate, making new homes in the Greensboro’s 55+ communities more affordable.

If Greensboro sounds like a place you would like to call home, trust Del Webb’s experience to find you the perfect new house.
