Yes, these houses are all alike, but what more can you do with an open concept? I want 4 walls in my kitchen. This allows for more cabinets. I want a window over the sink and a dinette area with windows. The rest of the main living area can be open. Put the kitchen in the back behind the garage so you can have windows. You can still get to it thru the garage. You need all the light you can get in these little houses. While black and white is nice, black roofs in Florida are contraindicated because black absorbs heat. Your cooling costs may be higher. In addition, black roofs don’t have as long a life as lighter colored roofs. They rot. I like the newer style vinyl. It’s smooth, no little curves.

The Villages builders install various different colors of shingles from a light tan to an onyx, black, and variations of gray. They are not all just dark. But they are consistent with any other homebuilder building a house anywhere.

Are these precast structures or stick built vinyl homes?

The patio villas are standard stick frame homes. Where as the courtyard or veranda, homes, or stucco exterior finish that can be precast concrete walls or builder block..

I wish in the new houses that they didn't add the silly soap dish right above the bench. Which is ridiculous! You can't sit on it if needed. I would rather have the washer/ dryer in the house versus in the hot garage! I do like the looks of the black windows. They don't as cheesy as the white ones. I really dislike the vertical blinds in the patio doors ughg those went out years ago! I like the courtyard villas but i hate you can only see the garage on most of them. The front door is hidden. I know it's hot in Florida it's just as hot in Kansas and we don't hide or put our doors in a hallway. Those rolled floors cheap vinyl cracks me up. How cheap can they get. I do like some of the new houses on the street of dreams. The Westchester is one of our favorites. Too bad instead of the cheap landscape they just didn't give you an allowance. Well at least that powder blue front door wasn't orange like a few houses down. They do need help with colors that blend well together. Being in Florida in really surprised they don't use more Floridian type colors. Just my thoughts. Thanks for the ride around!

Depending on the size of the house, there are only so many layouts you can have. I don’t think any of these home fronts in the villas are attractive. The other section of homes are OK. Looks like some of them are models from above 44.

Thank you for showing me various neighborhoods. I listed my house today and I’m heading down there. I’m going to try to get a lifestyle visit in once I secure a deal. If you were buying a new patio villa what neighborhood would you pick in the new sections?

Well, that could be a tricky question, because for me it would be contingent on where I wanted to be centrally located to, say like… do I want to be closer to the main squares or to Eastport, there are other factors to consider as well but perhaps looking at what’s more important for you guys Could weigh heavily on the location you choose. One thing to think about is the county align do you want to be in Sumter County or Lake County for example. I believe it’s a lake county that the Taxs are higher there. good luck in your search.. its hard to pick a bad spot though.. thanks for watching.

When I had the itch to move into one of the Villages, I was ok, this is a typical layout, saw smaller, saw larger. The price was well over what I could get here in NY. The Land you own or dont own, keep the car or just get a golf cart, pay for all those activities, or pickleball (never heard of it before) and get to know your neighbors, can be a very clique. For the price, I wasnt ready, the heat either. One Documentary has one of the Villages you never have to leave! Food stores, and boutiques in a very charming setting. Plus the house had its own pool and lots of charm. Lots of women, fewer men and ages were in the 60's to the 80's. Its a lifestyle. So many people live in these very expensive basic homes because its all about the ameniites and socialization. I prefer not to have my neighbors on top of me and have schedules like in Camp. I saw a not so Tiny Home at 1,450 sq ft, (not so tiny), modern, a few steps to a 2nd floor, and would never feel cramped. Not inexpensive, but part of a Community where each house was different and no golf carts allowed. When I retire, I hope I still have enough money to afford these large Smart Homes coming over from China.

I wish TV would get it's act together on the model series names and the associated characteristics. Traditional CYVs north of 466A seem to be around 1300SF. However south of 466A they seem to range more around 1600SF but there are some in the 1800SF range. The Veranda series are also in the 1600-2000SF range. Then there were the Bungalows (around 1600SF) temporarily that have since been merged into the CYV series and those are north of 466A. As far as I can tell they all have fenced in lots.

So we are new to Hawkins and don't know our way around at all and the vlg map took us all the way up to water lilly bridge to come back down. I could had walked to magnolia plaza faster. When did that bridge open?
@retiringtothevillagesflori197
@retiringtothevillagesflori197 Ай бұрын
Yes, it will basically do that, so if you use the Villages map, make sure you put it on bicycle path and not on car but from Hawkins, you would go over towards Sawgrass, and you would go west on Bexley Trail or South whatever you want to say it is and you will go over the southern Oaks Bridge that goes over the turnpike. That bridge goes over to all the new areas where Eastport is going to be built. So if you are on your golf cart and you are going on Bexley Trail, you would go on the roundabout to get onto McNeil Trail. You could go west all the way down to marsh bend Trail and turn right to go to Magnolia Plaza. Or you could also turn right onto Corbin Trail from off of MCNEILL and go through the village of monarch and the village of Linden and end up to Magnolia Plaza. The water lily bridge has been open up for a good while now and that southern oaks bridge was recently open in the recent months. And I’m in Bradford so when Susan and I golf cart over to Magnolia Plaza going over the southern oaks bridge and going over as I had described, it takes about 20 minutes..
