Buckhorn
 A
relatively new area, Buckhorn is a well developed Golf Course
community of over 600 homes in Valrico
Florida. With an Estates Special Dependent District Board of
Trustees that has been founded and kept-up by volunteers from the
neighborhoods, the people living in this community remain
united under a common front. Announcements from the board are posted
online to help keep the Buckhorn area up to speed on the
latest community news, and if you're not able to access the internet,
important features are posted on bulletin boards found throughout
the area. The current homeowners in the Buckhorn neighborhoods
create a welcome and inviting ambience focusing on family with every
intention on keeping things appropriate for children, and for adults
as well.
There is currently a nineteen-acre site adjacent to Buckhorn that
will give homeowners easy access to shopping and eateries. With
Class A businesses and restaurants in mind, the spaces will compliment
the neat, tidy, and well-kept appearance of the Buckhorn area.
These new projects are expected to be completed in the third or
fourth quarter of 2007. The future restaurants and stores will cater
to the shopping and dining needs of the homeowners of the area,
as well as provide employment opportunities for area homeowners.
In addition to this future plaza, there are several upscale and
casual dining options close by. Also available are grocery stores,
pharmacies, convenience stores, gas stations, malls, movie theaters
and banks. Located a short distance from the interstates, people
in Buckhorn have easy commute to Tampa, Brandon
Florida, MacDill, or Lakeland
Florida.
Families living in the Buckhorn area are privy to a newly remodeled
private golf course as well as tennis courts and swimming
pool. Buckhorn Springs Golf and Country Club features 6,888
yards for an overall par of 72. With 18 regulation holes as well
as 10 tees on the driving range, this is the perfect course for
any skill level to play. The clubhouse rents out golf carts for
anyone who wishes to play on this great course. Within the past
10 years a public park was constructed specially for the families
and children living in Buckhorn. This park includes a water
fountain, basketball court, jogging trail, and a play area for the
smaller children. It is a great place to invite friends and family
to join in the events. During the summer months and holidays, there
are several Board of Trustees sponsored activities, including a
"Buckhorn Bunny Bonanza" during the Easter season, a "Buckhorn
Boo Bash" for Halloween, and "Santa at the Park"
immediately following the neighborhood Christmas parade!
For the people living in Buckhorn, there is also a wonderful
access to Buckhorn Elementary, with some areas within walking distance
as well as a bus service for the children who need it. With a 21:
1 student: teacher ratio, children will get the attention they need
to thrive academically during their key fundamental development
years. There are also several highly-rated and desirable middle
and high schools, as well as several choice private schools that
offer the finest education around.
Overall, the Buckhorn area serves as a beautiful place to
live. The streets are impeccably kept, and lawns well managed. With
playgrounds, organized sports, and the YMCA in the surrounding areas,
structured and protected fun and exercise facilities make this a
great location to live. With a council of volunteers consisting
of over 100 individuals from the Buckhorn area, the only
way for things to go is up! The Board has negotiated a deal with
local exterminators and a local lawn care company to make lawn care
and pest control more convenient and cost effective for everyone
in the area. A recent stop-light installation on a high traffic
street serves as an example of the way people in Buckhorn take the
initiative to take what they believe are the right steps to keep
their families safe, and their area in prime condition.
There are a number of lovely homes available within the
Buckhorn community. The residences and great surroundings
make this an amazing place to live! Call your local Twin Palms Realty Inc Agent today!
