Golf view can mean many different things and you have to decide if the premium is worth the view you get. I have a golf view that I paid for. It is where a street makes a curve away from the course and the street behind me curves away from the course as well. So the home to my right facing the course is golf front and the one to my left on the next street over is golf front. I am golf view as my pie shaped lot misses the course by 21 feet. So for me, I have the best of everything. I am far enough away from the cart path to not hear the early AM golfers, close enough to see them, have several live oaks between me and the course, have a great view of the lake across the Heron course and not subjected to errant golf balls. I can see the course from the living room, master bedroom, and guest bedroom. Best views of course and lake are from the lanai and pool. And yes this lot was a significant premium. However for me it was perfect. Someone else may feel that being directly on the course is required. Or has to be a championship course. Or some other criteria that means a lot to you the buyer.

Golf view can also mean its on the other side of a busy road and traffic noise and carts are an issue. Personally I would not pay a premium for this, but someone else will. The lots are the most significant variable in the price of homes. Yes enhancements also add cost, but the lot difference can be as little as 10K or as much as 200K and probably more. It's view, location,size and they all impact the lot price which in turn impacts the home price.
