Woodbury is the fourth and most closely positioned village in the Nancy Lopez Legacy Country Club cluster — Nancy Lopez Legacy Country Club is half a mile away, and the Village of Springdale is just 0.6 miles from Woodbury's entrance, the tightest inter-village gap in the cluster. Built 2001–2004 in Marion County (ZIP 32162), the village has Cottage Homes and Patio Villas from approximately 1,051 to 2,760 sq ft. Briarwood and Walnut Grove executive golf courses run through the area, the same courses referenced in Briar Meadow. Homes still carrying the bond pay about $189 to $344 a year under District 4's Series 2021 schedule, scheduled to reach zero in 2031 — and the Phillips villa section (Unit 232) carries no bond at all, consistent with the confirmed "BOND PAID" and "NO BOND" listings here. Marion County's ~1.53% effective property tax rate applies — the same tradeoff as Briar Meadow, Springdale, and Calumet Grove.

Nancy Lopez Legacy Country Club is half a mile from Woodbury — closer than it is to Springdale (1.7 miles) or Calumet Grove (further north). Briarwood Executive Golf Course and Walnut Grove Executive Golf Course both run through the surrounding area, the same executive courses referenced in Briar Meadow; walking access to multiple executive courses without driving is a real advantage in this cluster. The 0.6-mile gap to Springdale is the shortest inter-village distance in the Nancy Lopez cluster — close enough that the two neighborhoods share a practical daily geography. Buyers who want to be in the Nancy Lopez corridor but are priced out of Briar Meadow (which is built directly on the course) find Woodbury's combination of price, proximity, and established neighborhood character worth evaluating.
The Lopez Legacy Foundation, connected to the course, provides scholarships and community support for first responders' families — a community dimension that distinguishes this cluster from other northern-area villages. Woodbury's recreation profile includes two pools (indoor and outdoor), pickleball courts, a community garden, an event lawn, a clubhouse, and yoga classes — a broader on-site amenity list than most northern-area villages of this era. Spanish Springs Town Square is the closest town square for nightly entertainment. On cost: Marion County's ~1.53% effective property tax rate is the same tradeoff buyers face in Briar Meadow, Springdale, and Calumet Grove — higher than the ~1.0% Sumter County rate, but largely offset by the bond picture. District 4's published schedules put Woodbury's bond payments at about $189 to $344 a year, scheduled to reach zero in 2031, and the Phillips villa section (Unit 232) shows no outstanding bond at all — consistent with the "BOND PAID" and "NO BOND" listings seen here. Run the two figures together — ~1.53% Marion County tax plus the Low bond — against Sumter County listings with active bonds to make a fair comparison.

Nancy Lopez Legacy Country Club is approximately 0.5 miles away — a championship course also serving Briar Meadow, Springdale, and Calumet Grove. Woodbury is the closest of the four cluster villages to the course.

All four share Marion County's ~1.53% tax rate, and all four carry Low bond payments — in Woodbury's case about $189 to $344 a year, scheduled to reach zero in 2031, with no bond at all in the Phillips villa section.
