The price I was given to build in the Enclave was a little over $1 million, including pool and lot. I can understand why the buyer would not pay full 1.2 million asking price. The home does not have a pool.

I am having a hard time believing the seller of the home paid $674.2k. The home is in the same area as the Enclave and was built a few months before construction started in the Enclave.
Lake Denham isn't really the same area as the Enclave. The Enclave is off of Dabney and it's a secluded area with little to no turnpike noise. This house is close to Megisson. FWIW I'm on Emiline and I can see this house from my back yard.

The house price of 674 makes sense. It is about 500 square feet larger than my house in Lake Denham. My house with the lot was $501K. So 173K more makes sense for the larger garage and extra square footage. Sale price would be the total price. I don't think the Villages lets you buy the lot separately, but I could be mistaken.

Some pics of my house lot...
