Glass front doors look nice…..we have one. Understand that more light is what you will get day and night.

The Villages is no way a “Dark Sky” community so at night, the light from your front “light”, your across the street neighbors light and even the street light will illuminate everything. We have a Laurel Oak and have to sleep with the bedroom door closed because of all the light that comes in at night.

That front glass will also let in a lot of heat if your house faces a certain way (south/west). We will need to get a clear heat reducing film to apply.
