For those of you in a house where you and your neighbors have 'kissing lanais', has that ever caused you a problem?
For those of you who paid more to have a larger lot, was it worth it?

Actually we have what they call a "Kissing Lanai". We have great neighbors in The Village of Charolette & when we first moved there 4 yrs. ago we planted shrubs for privacy & they like it & so do we, it works out great for us & all or our neighbors, personally the small lot isn't an issue for us it's the lanai, it's to narrow & you can't really have nice furniture out there because of rain & to close it in would be beating the purpose of have the open air feeling. Hope this helps. Personally we would like to sell our "Lilac" & buy another "Courtyard Villa".
