Verandas are designer homes (same floorplans) but with privacy fencing. They’re not villas, therefore higher priced. We aren’t bothered by no curb, and have never had a flooding issue. We wanted a private backyard so that’s the reason we bought one. They’re very popular with dog owners because of the fence, and sell very quickly once new ones are released mainly for that reason. Our gardener keeps grass from growing into the street by edging as part of the lawn maintenance. To me that concrete strip on the street in designer neighborhoods looks more like a gutter than a curb, but I can see where it would help keep parked cars off a lawn. We’ve never had a problem with that thankfully, but since the streets in TV are so narrow it’s rare to see a car parked on the street for an extended time. It’s mainly just contractors parking temporarily when doing a job.
