No grass = no lawn service. Only outside work is a little cutting of branches, plus painting with a Block villa, no painting with a frame.

Very much like a condo.

We were one of the last to move into a newer Village and were happy to find they had established a neighborhood organization with:
  • Monthly theme parties,
  • Friday night socials every other Friday,
  • Game night also every other week,
  • An active Woman's group,
  • Golf and other sports groups, plus other activities!

All this did lead to a tight knit group.

Hope this helps.

Come'on down!
