Regency at Babcock Ranch sits inside the large Babcock Ranch master-planned community, which means you're surrounded by walking trails, lakes, and parks, and you can watch the water glisten from breezy covered lanais in many homes, and the homes often face south so sunlight fills the rooms. It's a 55+ gated neighborhood, so it's got private roads and an entrance just for residents. The homes come in several sizes and styles-single-family, Villas, and Duets-with 2 to 4 bedrooms, up to 3.5 baths, and private garages that fit two or three cars, which is nice if you need more storage or like having a workshop area. The builder, Toll Brothers, offers hundreds of ways to personalize each home at their regional design studio, so folks can choose their own fixtures, finishes, and flooring-all picked out by their design pros if choosing is too much. Kitchens are modern, primary suites are roomy, and living spaces are set up for both everyday life and having people over, whether you want a simple two-bedroom with built-in speakers or a larger option like the Riverland Modern Coastal plan that adds flex space and even more storage. They built in smart home technology, so front doors have keyless entry, thermostats and garages connect to Wi-Fi, and the whole place is set up for easy living. Lawn care and outside upkeep are taken care of for you, so you don't need to worry about it. Prices start at $310,995.
Regency at Babcock Ranch focuses on active living, with amenities including a community center, social room, fitness center, putting green, fishing pond, pools, shuffleboard, pickleball and tennis courts, a playground, dog park, and even a community garden. The Lago Collection has its own playground, and the Veranda Amenity Center is just for Regency residents. The master-planned community around Regency brings more things to do, with resort-style pools, walking trails through the Florida landscape, and fun spaces like parks and lakes. The Toll Green program runs in the community, so homes are built to save energy and help the environment, keeping them quiet and comfortable year-round. There's also a discount on swimming pools for select homes, which might be important for folks who want to cool off in the summer.
Healthcare access is growing, too, with a healthcare hub expected to open inside the community in early 2025, partnered with Tampa General Hospital. Regency at Babcock Ranch doesn't have onsite health or care services right now, but the setting, activities, and connected features are designed for people living an independent, social lifestyle in retirement. Anyone looking for a low-maintenance, modern home in a friendly, active environment with plenty to do might want to look at 44453 Little Blue Heron Way, Punta Gorda, where Regency at Babcock Ranch makes its home.
