Our first Villages home was a Cabana Courtyard Villa. Liked it for awhile, took out all the grass, what little there was, and used stone, etc. But after the second year I just felt closed in by the vinyl fence and the houses on both sides. One side is not yours, so we rarely went down that side of our home since it was actually your neighbors property. Never saw neighbors, could hear them talking, or dogs barking, but that was it. Also, conversations were easily overheard since only feet separated us. Felt like Tim Allen and his neighbor in Tool Time! Also, lots of cars in the driveways since the garage is your storage, plus golf cart, and if you like to bike, a pair of those.
Garage was tight for an SUV and golf cart, not much room to maneuver. We are still snowbirds, but now live in a Designer with neighbors that we can see and greet, and still far enough apart to enjoy our lanai and yard.
