like all house plans everywhere, there are pluses and minuses to each. We have the Bonita (Foxglove in the Stucco).

Pluses:
- deep garage, we keep a Honda Fit, 2 golf carts (one a 4-seater), a workbench (holds one of the golf cart chargers) - have to move the carts out to use it the workbench but not to plug in the charger, 3 bicycles, a rolling tool cart about 3 feet high (keep one of the golf cart chargers on top)

- inside laundry with cabinets above the washer/dryer and a small (about 10-12 inches) wire shelf with place for hanging clothes on hangers. Also a laundry sink, a 2nd fridge, another shelf across the top and still room on both sides of the door for hooks for dog leash, jackets, etc. Oh yes, we also keep the dog's food/water dish and a wire dog cage in front of the sink - still room to do the laundry.

- dining room sliders provide easy and close access to the grill on the side patio - and a huge plus for Ohioboy is that he can see the 46" TV in the living room when he's outside grilling. I also like that you don't have to trek thru the lanai and living room to get to the grill, but if you want to take the food directly to the lanai, you can do that too.

- large, open kitchen.

- large closet in 3rd bedroom

- lower price than the Anna Maria/Stoneybrook or Cumberland/Grantham Similar to the new Siesta model (which has a nicer master bedroom/bath but smaller kitchen and smaller laundry room)

- large pantry plus a large linen closet

Minuses:

- smallish master bedroom/bath

- as far as I know, there isn't really a true split floor plan available in the CYVs, with guest room AND bath on the other side of the house. The 3rd bedroom is split, but no bathroom nearby. Some have a pocket door to the guest/bath. Ours doesn't, wish it did - kind of expensive to add as we have vaulted ceilings.
