Village of Hawkins Homes for Sale
Hawkins is a southern-area village in Sumter County (ZIP 32163), built between 2020 and 2022, with a scenic preserve hiking and biking trail walkable from many homes — sunset views from the trailhead are a natural feature not associated with most newer southern-area construction. Two recreation centers serve the village: Hawkins Neighborhood Recreation Center (adult pool, corn toss, shuffleboard, bocce) is within the village footprint, and Aviary Village Recreation Center (family pool, tennis, pickleball, billiards) is a short golf cart ride away. Home types include Patio Villas, Courtyard Villas, Verandas, and Designer Homes. CDD bond amounts vary by section under District 13's Series 2019/2020 schedules, ranging from the Low tier to the Average tier (roughly $1,060–$2,270 per year) — no section reaches the higher southern tiers, so verify the amount by address. Sawgrass Grove and Eastport are the nearest town squares; Southern Oaks Championship Golf Club is within cart range.

What people like about the Village of Hawkins
Having two dedicated recreation centers within easy reach is an above-average amenity stack for a single southern-area village. Hawkins Neighborhood Recreation Center serves Hawkins specifically — adult pool, corn toss, shuffleboard, bocce on-site, walkable for most residents. Aviary Village Recreation Center is a short cart ride away with a broader set: family pool, tennis, pickleball, billiards, darts, and shuffleboard. The preserve trail is the environmental feature that distinguishes Hawkins from most south-of-SR-44 new construction: a hiking and biking trail along the preserve edge, within walking distance of many homes, with a trailhead that offers sunset views. For buyers who want the modern layouts and multi-modal path network of new southern construction but also want natural access that most of the newer villages lack, Hawkins addresses both.
Southern Oaks Championship Golf Club is nearby — a championship venue that opened as the corridor developed, giving Hawkins residents pay-to-play championship access without the long cart run required from older central-area villages. Lowlands Executive Golf Course is the closest executive course, included with the amenity fee for walking play. Sawgrass Grove and Eastport are the nearest town squares — Sawgrass Grove (2022, modern feel, Clifton Cove Putting Course) and Eastport (2025, European-inspired, 250-acre Central Lake) both serve the south-of-44 corridor. On carrying cost: Hawkins' bond varies by section. District 13's Series 2019/2020 per-unit schedules run from the Low tier to the Average tier — roughly $1,060–$2,270 per year — with no section reaching the higher southern tiers. Which tier a given home falls in depends on its street and section, so verify the exact annual assessment in writing for any specific home before making an offer.

What to check before you buy in the Village of Hawkins
- Bond status and remaining balance Hawkins' bond varies by section rather than sitting at a single tier. District 13's Series 2019/2020 per-unit schedules run from the Low tier to the Average tier — roughly $1,060–$2,270 per year — with no section reaching the higher southern tiers. Because the amount depends on the specific street and section, verify the exact annual assessment and remaining term in writing for any specific home before making an offer — it varies home to home even within the same village.
