An active adult community where those aged 55 and up are invited to put down roots alongside Greenville’s Reedy River to build a social and event-filled lifestyle has broken ground.

Situated approximately 20 minutes from downtown, Del Webb Greenville’s age-restricted community will feature resort-style amenities integrated into a selection of single-family low-maintenance homes, according to the Del Webb Greenville news release. The sales center is set to open in spring of 2025, offering homesite selection and a model park showcasing professionally decorated homes to tour.

“The groundbreaking ceremony marks the commencement of a community that will define the expectations of 55-plus living in the Upstate,” Chad Plunkett, Greenville division president for PulteGroup, said in the release. “Del Webb is not just building new homes. We are crafting an unmatched lifestyle experience for active adults in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.”

The 209-acre community will feature 434 homes designed around ponds, greenspace and scenic nature trails along Del Webb’s mile of Reedy River shoreline. Also overlooking the river, a 9,000-square-foot clubhouse will serve as a gathering hub for residents, with a state-of-the-art fitness studio, grand ballroom and meeting/event space, the news release said.

The resort-style clubhouse will be joined by an outdoor pool and sun deck, pickleball and bocce courts, and a future full-time lifestyle director will organize events, clubs, interest groups and classes with an objective of ensuring homeowners are engaged and entertained. Golf carts will be allowed along the roadways, ensuring easy connectivity between neighbors and activities throughout the community. Flexible floor plans are designed by the GenYou collection, featuring one-level living with optional second floors, to include choices from two to four bedrooms and baths. Floor plans range from approximately 1,300 square feet to more than 2,200 square feet, and feature front porches, large kitchen islands, ample storage and blended indoor/outdoor living areas. Options for lofts, sunrooms and spa-like owners’ retreats also are available.

Del Webb is a national brand of PulteGroup Inc. Del Webb builds consumer-inspired homes and communities for active adults ages 55 and up who want to continue to explore, grow and learn, socially, physically and intellectually as they look forward to retirement.
