It’s no secret that here at Award Realty we love to keep our community informed when it comes to Arizona’s hottest (no pun intended) 55+ communities. And for those who want to call Surprise home, we suggest you look no further than Sun Village.
This gated community in one of our favorite Arizona cities is made up of 1,382 low-maintenance living homes. The homes of this community can either include smaller and more manageable townhomes or detached homes for extra space and privacy.
You can’t beat the location with it being 30 miles northwest of Phoenix and just minutes from the training stadium of the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals. And for those looking for the opportunity to break a sweat in the great outdoors, hike or bike to the waterfall at White Tank Regional Park on the western edge of Surprise.
Activities at Sun Village
But Sun Village isn’t known for just the amazing location and beautiful, low maintenance homes. It boasts a 47,000 square-foot clubhouse for all the amenities that its active residents demand. Sun Village is almost a city itself with its fitness room, beauty salon and full-service restaurant with patio seating overlooking the pool. You don’t even have to leave the community to have a full day of activities.
In addition to the everyday activities that make errands and daily routine just a little easier, Sun Village appeals to people with all kinds of interests. The community center has a ballroom for those that want to break a sweat to some salsa or swing music, a woodworking shop for the residents that like to get their hands dirty, and an arts and crafts studio for the creatively inclined. Shoot some pool at the billiards or just relax with a good book at the community library right after you finish your yoga or water exercise class.
And for those that love Arizona for its ideal weather and year-round sunshine, Sun Village doesn’t disappoint in the outdoor activities department. The numerous tennis, shuffleboard and pickleball courts alone will keep you moving as well as the walking/biking path around the lovely onsite Pima Lake. Dip in the resort-style pool and spa when it’s time to cool off or relax. And for the golfer in your family, hit the low-fee links at Sun Village Golf Course.
Groups and Community Events
The residents of Sun Village love their activities so much that there is a full-time activities director to help coordinate recreational events and social clubs, plus regularly scheduled concerts and performances. There are over 30 clubs and interest groups that meet on a regular basis but some of the most popular ones include bridge, euchre, bunco, and stitchery. Retirement doesn’t mean a slowdown in Sun Village.
Arizona has no shortage of amazing 55+ communities but for those who love the charm of Surprise, we know you’ll be more than happy to call Sun Village home. Who ever said retirement would be boring?
