sorry happi to hear your having problems. When we moved in we had a beautiful view from our hot tub and lost it to neighbor planting a fruit tree. also we had beautiful view out our kitchen window and neighbor planted bottle brush. Both views gone. Don't think there is much you can do. that is a DISADVANTAGE of the villages and our homes being so CLOSE. Most people don't think but when you pick out property imagine your neighbor and what they may do. Views can be lost very easily with landscaping. we have two homes (designers) near us on golf course. (we're not on one) both neighbors ended up fighting because one started the idea. Plants that blocked the others views. It just escalated until one neighbor built a extension just to try to keep his view and the other built a larger extension to try to keep his view. I hope it works out for you. Keep us posted.
