Our lot premium for this wonderful site was only 15K.
Maybe that is what the poster is crabbing about in that now in the new sections of TV the lot premiums for water view are 10 times that price.

Paying for privacy is a time honored tradition. Paying to view a typical detention or retention basin, that may nor may not have water in is .... well, only in The Villages it seems.
In the real world, having a detention or retention basin abutting your yard, is more likely to get you a discounted price, rather than a premium price.
To each his own.
