Gone are the days of using the phrase “retirement community” when talking about the year-round sunshine and tropical weather that draws many retirees to Florida. The term “active adult community” is better suited for the active adult lifestyle many are seeking here.
Active adults are typically considered those aged 55 and over, who may still actually work part- or full-time, and live a very independent lifestyle. A community geared towards active adults simply realizes that these residents are most likely at the same stage of life and share similar interests when it comes to leisure time, while looking for relatively maintenance-free living.
There are many active adult communities in Florida, and we’re highlighting two 55+ Central Florida Homes for Sale with Dream Builders Realty right now.
If you’re looking for an immaculate move-in ready home to fit the Florida lifestyle you’re after, look no further than this beautiful Calto Model home in the 55+ community of Solivita.

Your first drive up to a 2-car garage with an additional golf cart garage and wider paved driveway. Upon entering the screened front entry and beautiful glass front door, you’re greeted by a small foyer that opens into the large, open kitchen and living room.
