Choosing the right Dallas 55+ community is about more than a floorplan or a fresh start. It’s about finding a place that feels like home the moment you walk in. For many homeowners across Ladera Living communities, that feeling comes from right-sized design, rich amenities and a welcoming lifestyle that turns neighbors into friends. Their stories say it best.
Designed Around You
Janice and Mike, homeowners in Ladera Prosper, said the personalization process was one of the biggest reasons they chose Ladera Living. As Janice put it, “We built our home, we picked out our floorplan, redesigned some things. I’m making it more modern-traditional, and it’s totally fun. After years in the same home, starting fresh felt like the right next chapter.”
Unlike many other Dallas 55+ communities with cookie cutter layouts, Ladera Living offers extensive personalization options. Homebuyers choose from a variety of floorplans, then tailor their home with flooring, colors, lighting, finishes, appliances and other touches. An online design portal helps buyers explore ideas before arriving at the design center, where they receive six hours of time with a professional designer. A catered lunch, a break at the cocktail lounge or even time at the putting green creates a relaxed and enjoyable experience while final decisions come together.
Move Easy, Live Fully
Many Ladera Living homebuyers also appreciate how simple the moving process can be thanks to our Move Easy, Live Fully program. Homebuyers receive a no-obligation consultation with a real estate expert to review selling options through QuickBuy, along with access to a full service move concierge through WellRive Moving Services. From planning to packing, the goal is to make your transition as smooth as possible.
A Lifestyle That Brings People Together
For John, who moved to Ladera Prosper, the shift to active adult living has been transformative. “Ladera Living for me has been really a godsend. I’ve met a ton of new people and we get to talk and laugh and enjoy life together here,” he said. Between yoga classes, weekly lunches, poker night and social committee events, he soon felt more connected than he had in his past few neighborhoods combined.
This sense of community is woven throughout every Ladera Living location. Homeowners plan events, engage in friendly competitions on the pickleball courts, join clubs and enjoy amenities designed to foster friendships. You can stay as busy as you want or relax into quiet days at The HUB clubhouse, pool or trails.
Close to the People and Places You Love
Location matters, too. Linda, who recently moved to Ladera Little Elm, said she knew immediately she was in the right place. “I’m close to my son, and this is just a great place to be. I like the sense of community. I feel like I can walk the sidewalks and walk my dogs in the evening and feel safe.”
Ladera Living communities are intentionally placed in some of the most desirable cities in the DFW Metroplex. Homeowners enjoy easy access to major healthcare, dining, entertainment and of course, the grandkids. It’s convenience without sacrificing the peaceful, resort-style atmosphere residents love.
Five Stars From Every Angle
Across every community, homeowners share the same feedback. Jay from Ladera Little Elm said the “product quality, options and craftsmanship are top-notch.” Janice in Ladera Prosper raved about the “amenities and social gatherings.” Homeowners in Tavolo Park praise the beautiful setting and high-quality construction, while Carol in Ladera Elm mentioned the noticeable difference in workmanship compared to competitors.
From the luxurious, lock-and-leave homes to the friendly neighbors and sought-after amenities, Ladera Living continues to stand out as one of the top choices for active adult living in the DFW area. And if you ask the people who call it home, they’ll tell you they wouldn’t choose anywhere else!
