Description/Overview

Royal Highlands by Pringle is an active adult community located among rolling hills in Leesburg, central Florida. This world-class golf community sits on just under 1,100 acres, with nearly 35 percent of the land set aside for conservation. The natural preserves are a home to native birds, waterfowl, and other wildlife. There are four lakes on-site where Royal Highlands residents can go fishing and canoeing.

The crown jewel of this gated community is the Monarch golf course, where Royal Highlands residents get preferred rates and tee times. Members of the public are allowed to play with a resident. Beautifully designed around this golf course, Royal Highlands in Leesburg Florida is located close enough to urban conveniences, yet provides serenity in a country setting about ten minutes away from downtown Leesburg. The mild three-season climate and low crime rates of the greater Leesburg area make Royal Highlands a perfect place for baby boomers.
