Easton

Active adult community · Avon, Indiana · New construction from the low $300s

Easton is a new construction active adult community in Avon, Hendricks County, offering single-family homes in the low-to-mid $300s. Located along Foxley Park Lane on Avon's western side, Easton serves buyers who want new construction at a price point above the lowest tier (Stoney Meadow) but below the Del Webb premium. Active MLS listings as of 2025 are concentrated in the $299K–$316K range, making Easton one of the most affordable new-build options in the market that offers single-family detached construction.

The community is smaller than its Hendricks County neighbors — Vandalia (475 homes) and Stoney Meadow (170 homes) — which means the social ecosystem is more limited. Buyers who prioritize a robust activity calendar should factor community size into their comparison. For buyers who want a low-maintenance new home in a quieter setting close to Avon's US-36 corridor, Easton is worth evaluating alongside Stoney Meadow.

Verify age restriction status: Before signing a contract at Easton, confirm with the builder or HOA whether the community is legally age-restricted under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA) or age-targeted. Age-targeted communities do not carry a legally enforced 55+ rule. This distinction matters for long-term neighborhood character and resale.

Within Hendricks County's 55+ market, the choice usually comes down to whether the Del Webb amenity package is worth the price premium (Vandalia), whether budget is the primary driver (Stoney Meadow), or whether a smaller, simpler new-construction neighborhood fits better (Easton). All three carry Hendricks County's income tax at 1.5%.
