Really ? Why would that be ? Not arguing the point, but if a person does, as we did, moved from a 2800 sf home to a 2100 in Florida, we just brought the furniture from two BR, not all 4 ! How does "ambiance" even apply ? Thought most everyone was like we are, that we have our own idea of "ambiance", the style that fits us, the color wood we prefer in furniture, etc. etc. Can't even imagine, at the prices today for for furniture of MUCH less quality, why someone would think the particle board backs and drawer bottoms, and NON dove tail construction is "ambiance" or quality ? ? Just don't get the "connection" between a person asking a legitimate questions concerning WHICH areas of the villages may (or may not?) be able to accommodate a full size moving van, and an answer that says (WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING which villages) that's a very good reason to LEAVE all your furniture (and I'm just guessing of much higher quality than the foreign imports and their distinct "smell") and because it (their furniture) does not fit their "ambiance" ? ? Strange. Perhaps by "ambiance" is meant the run of the mill "tropical" look we see in every Florida motel. That is not for everyone for sure !
