Can anyone give me some advise between the house and courthouse villas. I'm looking at so many I'm getting confused.
Thank You

Pivovar, we had several homes up north, none of which was on a lot smaller than 1.25 acres. One lot was 10 acres! We have lived in a courtyard villa for over 12 years and absolutley love the privacy this home affords us. We ARE on a golf course so we have the white fence in the rear, separating us from the golf cart path. We planted a hedge along there that we keep short enough to not block our view but does keep the golfers from looking in from the path. We actually chose this style of home because we we were worried that after living in homes that had a lot of privacy we might not like the regular back yard that faces another lanai, and the side yards that are not private, either. Yes, the courtyard villas are on very narrow lots and are close together. But, to be honest, we don't even think about that! These homes are designed so that windows face a blank neighbor-villa wall so even the side yards are very private. I hope this helps!
