I can answer a few of your questions. We moved here in November to a Lantana. We have pocket doors that allow the sliding doors to the lanai to totally open up--LOVE them. When they are open there are no screens.
We have a laundry room off the kitchen that leads to the garage. I don't recall seeing any designer that has a laundry room in the garage. The Fern has a coat closet in front. There are some others that also have them.
Good luck with your decision.
We all go thru this decision making before we decide.
Just enjoy the journey........
