I’m worried about noise from sawgrass, noise from the highway, and potential power lines at the new power substation below hole 5 on the golf course., which I didn’t know about when we picked the lot). This is all so new to me. First time I’m buying my own home. I didn’t realize I could look at the surrounding areas on a map on t.v. Website. Just recently discovered that. I’m a real rube.
We’ve been in that area twice in the last week and I’m familiar with the location of your lot - I think your fears are probably unfounded.

You’re nowhere near close enough to Sawgrass to hear significant noise from there, plus when build-out is complete in that area I think there will be a lot of homes between you and noise from Sawgrass.

There is a large existing electrical substation southeast of hole 5 and Merhottein Loop but it is a long way from your lot and you will not be able to see it from anywhere on your lot.

Re: turnpike noise - I spent some time yesterday on lot 39 at the western end of Danielson next to the tee boxes for hole 8. From that lot there are a few gaps in the golf course and berm where you can see vehicles on the turnpike. I didn’t think the noise was a problem and it probably won’t be noticeable at all indoors - but the caveat has to be that every person has their own sensitivity (or lack of) to noises. With your lot being further away and the outside rear facing NNW, I don’t think it will be an issue, but that’s just my $0.02.

Good luck and be happy with whatever you decide.
