Plenty of opinions and reasons on here about living in "Southern Oaks" or not living there. Nothing to be gained by challenging either point of view. I'll just give you my own perspective. We moved down here earlier this year into a rental north of 44 with no intention of buying in Fenney. We had plenty of knowledge about TV and our opinion of Fenney was that it was a beautiful village but if we can't jump on a cart and go to the places and do the things we could do from the rest of TV, we weren't interested. But, that's where all of the open houses were for new homes. So, we had a 3 month plan to find a pre-owned home but after only being here 4 days, we found the home we wanted. Like FenneyGuy, we are on the south side, backed up to a pond with privacy in a designer Veranda. We've watched the area grow daily for the past 6 months, and in a year, we can take a reasonable golf cart ride to Brownwood and then points beyond if we wish. We don't regret a thing, but that's just our opinion.
