The grid and power lines are outside the village neighborhood…the new style they’re building by the lifestyle homes are very interesting…we just drive by those today like the back of an oriole designer on the side..you’re not looking at another persons lanai either so it’s nice. It elongates the home. We’re not worried about the jail either…it has fences and lights and a lot of popo. Love it down here for sure.

Just viewed you from the beginning but I gotta know..are you still on house #1 since you became full timers and why? I was glad to see the village of MC as that is where we live now..fun to see it before it became the beautiful place it now is…and plants grow fast here.

Yes we are in house number one, but we are looking for a second home here in the near future. Will Creek is a nice area and that whole region will be basically the middle of the villages at the rate they’re going. Congratulations on your purchase and thank you for watching our videos.

Hey Frank, thanks again for checking on Northcott loop and well point I appreciate it .. our house is being built on the very corner in the backside by the fence area. It’s a designer home. Thanks again, Joe.

Groovy episode. Some of these new home designs look somewhat bigger than most of the older home models, and more original, designer looking. Some of the best looking homes I have ever seen in The Villages. However, as for the homes next to the massive power plant; who in the hell would want to live next to those ugly and possibly dangerous things? I can't see anyone wanting to look out their windows and see that cheap. If they were smart they would of put the power lines underground.
@retiringtothevillagesflori1972 күн бұрын
Thank you for watching, I guess people look at it in the sense that at least all the powerlines running to the houses are underground. I’m not sure if there’s much anyone can do about power stations like that. There’s just such an eyesore in the idea of putting $400,000 houses or more up around that area just seems odd to me But that’s not gonna stop people from buying. I can guarantee that..

Interesting new design. I like the new driveway so you have less grass to worry about. The grass is terrible anyway and is prone to bugs which leads to more expense and possible fines. Plus you get two lanais. I would rather have a prison 6 blocks away than a neighbor with a barking dog, which seems to happen more often. Glorious video, Frank! Thanks

Thanks! I agree with you on the grass, lol, less is better

Wow kinda like a tunnel very long not sure it’s for me Frank. I guess I’d have to see it already… I think they get more houses on the road packing them in and cheaper for developers. Cheaper utilities and road ways.. you gotta be kidding me next to power lines too and pen these builders are so greedy

They can redesign the outside, but open concept leaves little room for variety. They all pretty much look the same, some larger. You drive down the street and see a bunch of garages. The ones that are nice are the older ones that have been somewhat customized. I’ll take any one of them.

I agree, the older ones seem to have a little more charm.

Curb appeal seems to be lacking on the new designs. No front door? Just a garage and a small window? I don’t get it. Am I missing something?
@retiringtothevillagesflori1974 күн бұрын
The Villages is famous for hidden front doors, there is, but it’s more to the side depending on the model. Some of those models do you have a front door that you have to walk to. So it’s a mixture. But these garden villas remind me more of courtyard villas. These types of homes just don’t have a front door. That’s usually front and center like most traditional homes.

Power grid aside the federal facility is well hidden and if someone did successfully escape they wouldn’t be hanging out for a driveway party

Thats true, there have been two escapes do far and both caught.

Wow, I can tell you already that you couldn’t pay me to live in one of those new plans off of Denise Dr. Talk about ugly houses, then factor in the federal prison across the road which is a huge place. Oh my what is the villages doing?
