Cresswind at Victoria Gardens

What is the best 55+ community in Central Florida? Well, I’ve been asked this question a couple times lately, so I thought I’d take just a few minutes to tell you about Cresswind at Victoria Gardens in Deland, Florida. I’ll give you some of the reasons I love Cresswind at Victoria Gardens!

First, let’s address what Cresswind at Victoria Gardens IS. Victoria Gardens is a manned gated, active adult community in Deland about 30 miles north of Orlando and 25 miles inland from Daytona and New Smyrna Beaches. Victoria Gardens is one section of the larger Victoria Park residential community in Deland. The Gardens tends to be a quiet community, despite its close proximity to I-4.

The Gardens, which still has new homes being built, currently has about 1,200 single family residences. As of today, homes are mostly selling in the 400’s. The homes in the Gardens are built on small lots and are packed in, but that doesn’t seem to bother anyone here as their homeowner association dues, which are about $425/quarter include the lawn care, reclaimed water, cable, HD TV and high-speed internet.

Speaking of those dues, what amenities does that kind of money get you? Well, it gets you quite a bit!

•  Access to all amenities in all of Victoria Park – and they don’t have access to the Gardens
•  Private clubhouse with a full-time lifestyle director managing clubs & activities
•  Cruises
•  Bird watching
•  Skeet shooting
•  Dances, etc
•  Resort-style pool (again, the rest of Victoria Park doesn’t have access)
•  Fitness room
•  Ball room
•  Pool tables
•  Library
•  Card and arts and crafts rooms
•  Lighted tennis, pickleball and bocce ball courts
•  Finally, the golf course is right across the street!

Something else I really appreciate is the sense of community that they work to develop here. There’s a weekly newsletter with community issues, upcoming events, athletic schedules for meetups and all sorts of things that help the residents feel a sense of belonging.

Cresswind at Victoria Gardens is just one of many adult communities in Central Florida. If you’re thinking about making a move to a 55+ neighborhood, let us help you find the best!

Sold our home in less than 3 weeks and above asking price. Will be using him again to sell our other home in the very near future. You wont be disappointed in selecting Chuck and his team, I recommend you start packing once you bring him on board.

Kyla helped me find my perfect home. She was helpful, knowledgeable, and most importantly, she listened to my wants and needs! We searched until we found my perfect home. She stayed on top of the inspections and mortgage broker requirements until closing day. I could not have chosen a better  partner for my home search. Thank you, Kyla! You are a rock star and I could not be happier.

★★★★★

Chuck is just the best! So friendly, helpful and quite the funny guy 🙂 we loved him ?? and after all of our shenanigans, house to house to house to house……he was so patient and would even tell us if he thought we were in over our head. Sometimes we saw “a little fix here and there” but chuck  saw a headache! He’s not in it for a quick sale! That’s why, we’re going to buy another house! We purchased our house a little over a year ago but we’re ready to move on….I’ll be call you soon Chuck!

Words can never express how much I enjoyed and loved working with Kyla. For me, I never wanted to work with a realtor due to fears of them scamming me and just “talking a good game”. Kyla eased that fear the very first time we met. She was personable and she answered questions in a way that made  you actually answer your own questions in order for you to be the sole driver of the process while she copiloted and snatched the wheel when need be. Lol. She was available when needed most and very understanding when questions came up in the wee hours of the night. Would I recommend her, ABSOLUTELY!! Kyla thank you again for all that you’ve done for my family and I! YOU ROCK!

★★★★★

Kyla was excellent. She was very kind & understanding. The closing on my home was a mess! Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. Kayla sat with me the entire day at the closing office waiting for a wire transfer. She made a difficult day much easier for me. The purchase of my new home was  swift & easy bc of her. She also made sure that I won the bid on my new home with a secret she uses, as there were 5 offers!! I would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling.

★★★★★

Chuck was everything you could ask for in a realtor – smart, responsive, thorough and genuinely kind and honest. After meeting with other realtors, we were so happy we went with Chuck. He really listened to us, gave us sage advice and made the selling process a breeze. Doesn’t get better than that!
