Leisure World of Maryland

Montgomery County is incredibly accommodating to very many types of people, making it a great place to settle down. But, as much as we think about business professionals, young families, and others, we cannot forget about the 55+ community. It is at this age when people are entering their golden years, when they’re able to settle down a little more and start enjoying a more relaxed lifestyle.

So, for those who are looking to make the later part of their lives as simple and hassle-free as possible, the retirement community called Leisure World of Maryland was built. Situated across 610 acres, the site offers a diverse selection of more than 5,660 homes. There are various neighborhoods, each with its own governing housing communities, which allow residents the opportunity to enjoy the life of an active socialite, all without having to leave Leisure World itself.

Here are a few specific perks about living in this amazing retirement community.

18-hole Championship Golf Course
Situated at the center of the community and spanning 85 acres of land is a professionally designed and well-manicured golf course. Across the world, golf is one of the most popular leisure activities for people in their later years, being low impact yet offering enough exercise to keep its participants in shape.

If you’ve always wanted to play but have never picked up a club in your life, it’s okay. There is instruction available from a Class-A PGA ranked professional. Maybe you up for a little competition when you play. You’re covered there as well. There are four different leagues to choose from, both for the men and the ladies. What’s best is at the center of it all are the residents. The golf staff coordinates the management of the course with the resident-led Golf and Greens Advisory Committee. It’s all about the residents.

The Surrounding Area
There is a lot to be desired by living not just in the Leisure World neighborhood, but in the general area itself. By driving just, a short distance, a person could easily reach downtown Silver Spring, Bethesda, and Chevy Chase. Such a location provides a great level of convenience for the residents. Whether you’re looking to go out for a day of shopping, visit an attraction, or simply pick up some groceries, you won’t have to drive any longer than about 30 minutes.
