ATLANTA - s4story -- With a lifestyle-driven approach to home design and amenity packages, Encore by David Weekley Homes communities are thoughtfully crafted for active adults. With neighborhoods extending from Decatur's on-trend urban setting to Dallas's charming suburban sprawl, David Weekley Homes Atlanta Division announced today that its first 55+ community in Gainesville, Georgia, Lanier Landing, is on schedule to open in Late Spring 2026. Set at the edge of Lake Lanier, the lakeside community spans 120 acres and will soon offer 229 homes with a choice of 20 floor plans that provide an ideal blend of livability and luxury. Amenities planned for Lanier Landing include a resort-style clubhouse with a gym and aerobics studio, a pool, pickleball courts, an RV/boat storage lot, and more.

"After having a presence in Sterling on the Lake in Flowery Branch for two decades, we're no strangers to Hall County," said Adam Cornett, Atlanta Division President for David Weekley Homes. "However, Lanier Landing provides an opportunity for us to add the City of Gainesville to our portfolio. Although it's been one of Georgia's largest cities for more than 200 years, exciting developments are underway throughout the historic city, making it even more appealing to active adult homebuyers. There's a terrific chef-driven food scene downtown, The Hall at Bourbon Brothers plays host to a jam-packed calendar of concerts and events, and Northeast Georgia Medical Center continues to bring award-winning healthcare to local residents. Of course, the crown jewel of Gainesville – Lake Lanier – will also serve as the crown jewel of Lanier Landing with stunning views of the water."

After launching its Encore by David Weekley Homes age-qualified, 55+ home and development brand in 2014, it slowly began to gain momentum. But with the population of adults 55+ forecast to rise by 21% between now and 2033 to an astounding 130 million nationwide, that's about to change. And David Weekley Homes – Atlanta is leading the charge. Beyond its Hall County community of Lanier Landing,  the builder is currently selling in three Encore communities, with one more planned in McDonough.

Cornett encourages anyone interested in becoming a Homeowner in Lanier Landing to join the VIP List on the community page at https://www.davidweekleyhomes.com/new-homes/ga/atlanta/gainesville/lanier-landing.
