I think the lots are more expensive that have a water view or a marsh view. I don't know what you mean by prairie view. If you mean a view of open land, you never know what might be built next to you.

Check out some existing houses on water, golf courses, or preserves. Compare them to living in a house with a lanai or pool right next to you and right in back of you.

I have friends who bought a new home a few years ago and were first people on their block. Now, they have homes with "kissing lanais" on either side and one directly in back with a pool. They are glassing in their lanai for noise control!

Mine is open to the back to a golf course and neighbors on either side are a distance away due to larger lots in the established neighborhood I am in.
