olfers love Central Virginia where celebrated courses abound and the temperate climate makes it possible to play 365 days a year. To a golfer, living where you play makes all the sense in the world. It saves time and means more hours on the course. The hardest decision may be deciding among many terrific options. And one key to making a good choice is to assure even the non-golfers in the household think it’s a good idea to live in a golf community. Fortunately, most courses have other amenities like resort-style attractions with broad appeal. And of course the gated communities offer a certain caché and increased security for residents. REALTOR® Pam Dent, with Gayle Harvey Real Estate Inc., says, “We are lucky to have such a variety of golf communities in this area, with a wide range of price points and amenities.” Some come with their own lakes, most with stunning views of the mountains, and a couple have been history mak-

Farmington
Considered Charlottesville’s premier gated community, Glenmore offers a championship 18-hole golf course covering a scenic and rolling landscape that winds through the neighborhood. Stateof-the-art teaching facilities and “No Embarrassment” Clinics make even new golfers feel welcome. Glenmore boasts a fitness and swimming center, as well as an adjoining fullservice equestrian center. The racquet sports facility includes 12 tennis, four pickleball, and two platform tennis courts, along with a hitting wall. Dent says, “Glenmore is a beautiful neighborhood with gently rolling hills, cul-de-sacs with mature trees, and walking trails. Homes come in a wide variety of sizes, styles, and prices. Several areas of the community even offer lawn maintenance. The clubhouse is attractive with a very good restaurant. The neighborhood has something for everyone.” Current listings include existing homes from $485,000 to nearly $2 mil-
This grande dame is one of the oldest private clubs in Virginia. The original south and north nines make up Farmington’s 1927 Main Course, consistently recognized as one of the top traditional courses in Virginia. The 10-hole East Course offers golfers a challenging round in less than two hours. Its newly renovated Performance Center has five indoor hitting bays for year-round practice with the latest technology for members and their guests. Farmington features a full-service clubhouse, fifteen outdoor and three indoor tennis courts, a zero-depth entry pool, and an 8,000 square foot fitness center. Both adult and casual dining rooms are available, and the Country Club hosts many weddings and events. The surrounding upscale homes of classic Southern architecture on large, private, wooded homesites don’t come on the market very often. And when they do, they are in high demand. Buyers with

Full Cry, the Keswick Club golf course, ranked 46 in this year’s Golf Week’s Top 200 Resort Golf Courses in the U.S. Recently redesigned by golf course architect Pete Dye, the 18-hole course also achieved the Audubon Environmental Certification for ecological stewardship. Known for its friendly service and excellent golf course, the tennis complex and state-of-the-art fitness center don’t disappoint either. A trio of swimming pools and a clubhouse with a complete spa round out the activities package. New member Ross Shipe describes Keswick as “a great course recently redesigned with new leadership, new restaurant, and a friendly golf and hospitality staff.” At Keswick Estates, each home site has a minimum of two acres, resulting in more private living within this gated community. Resale homes can be found but don’t last long, most starting at over $2 million. Lot choices are still available and start at $289,900.
Lake Monticello Just 15 miles from Charlottesville, but a world away, Lake Monticello is a gated lake and golf community in Fluvanna County. With eight sets of tees, the 18-hole course designed 50 years ago has stood the test of time. A driving range, leagues, lessons, and the Get Golf Ready group instruction are designed to welcome everyone into the game. Golf is just one small piece of the action at Lake Monticello. The 350-acre man-made lake with 22 miles of shoreline, five beaches, and a marina take center stage. Boating and fishing are popular along with tennis and swimming in the pool. Pickleball leagues, soccer, and softball fields offer activities for all residents. Lake Monticello offers affordable resort living not too far off the beaten path. Under a rich canopy of trees and a robust slate of activities, residents describe it as a summer camp for adults (and their kids). The 4,601 lots are home to about 11,000 residents in 4,100 single-family homes and 15 condominiums. Still reasonably priced, current listings can be purchased from $260,000 to $860,000.
Lake of the Woods Located in the northeastern tip of Orange County, Lake of the Woods is one of Virginia’s largest planned recreational communities. Its 18-hole PGA course is carved into the oak and pine woods and features slopes, sand, and water. The front nine has a unique set of tees with yardages the same as the famous Master’s Par 3 course in Augusta, Georgia. REALTOR® John Licata, Co-Managing Partner with Licata Group Real Estate Advisors, says, “Golf is just one aspect that makes Lake of the Woods attractive. LOW is amenity-rich!” Sited around a 500-acre man-made lake with two marinas, seven lake access areas, and eight sand beaches, residents enjoy every imaginable water activity.

Spring Creek Golf Digest ranked Louisa County’s Spring Creek Golf Club as a top 100 golf course in the U.S. General Manager Kris Reinert says, “And we are so much more than that. By offering members and guests the opportunity to enjoy the game on their terms and within their time constraints we break the stigma that golf is too hard or takes too long.” The Club’s social clinics, nine-hole leagues, and the Twilight 9 and Dine for couples
make the game fun, relaxing, and nonintimidating, while still helping players improve. The other athletes in the household won’t feel left out at Spring Creek. A comprehensive Sports Club and Fitness Center has 9,500 square feet of cardio equipment, free weights, and a 25-meter pool. Miles of walking trails; tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts; and bocce ball bring the fun outdoors, too. The Spring Creek lifestyle has created “off-the-chart demand and very little to no inventory,” according to Dan Girouard, Broker with Spring Creek Realty. “We are building it as fast as possible, however, the demand is outpacing the development cycle.

Nelson County is home to two very different golf communities associated with Wintergreen Resort. The 18-hole Devils Knob offers the highest elevation of any course in Virginia, keeping temperatures low. Its tight design rewards shot-makers. Down below, in Rockfish Valley, Stoney Creek offers 27 holes of championship golf. “Courses at Wintergreen—at Stoney Creek in the valley and Devils Knob on Wintergreen Mountain—are in the best condition in years,” says Steve Marianella of Wintergreen Real Estate. “The resort is also excited about the influx of new and younger club members over the last couple of years of brisk real estate sales.” And golf isn’t the only game on the mountain.

An Albemarle County native with over 35 years of experience in the real estate industry! If you are looking for your dream home, selling your current home or just have questions about the market... I know the area and would love to assist you. The mountain community is mostly second homes and rentals, with some building lots available. There are more than 1,100 condos and townhomes on the mountain so buyers can often find something to purchase there. Stoney Creek is home to mostly fulltime residents and has larger lots. Marianella reports, “There are only about a half dozen homes for sale now in Stoney Creek, but there are more than 30 lots available for new construction.”
It’s Still an Investment When evaluating a golf community, don’t let the prospect of frequent golf overshadow other considerations. This is still home, and still a real estate investment. Dent advises buyers to consider the neighborhood, isolation, and value. “You might think that a neighborhood doesn’t matter if the home itself is great. But you can’t make yourself love a location where
you feel uncomfortable. “Make sure the community you’re buying in is close to the public spaces you enjoy.” Easy access to golf is great, but if the community is isolated or lacks features you use frequently, it will become less attractive over time. Golf homes can be a good investment. Dent reminds potential buyers, “The biggest factor influencing the price for a golf course home is the view and location relative to the golf course. And a golf home’s value will always depend on the golf course itself. Before buying, ensure the course is in the best condition, with an attractive neighborhood and accessible amenities.” In Central Virginia, top-notch golf communities are abundant, each with its own distinctive character. And there’s sure to be one just right for you. Carla Huckabee writes about high-performing real estate.
