Bears, snakes, flies, coyotes, fire ants, gutter-smashing creatures, and now possums on antipsychotic drugs! Oh, no!

My wife's been telling me about this thread for the last few days, so we decided to see what the real story was. Took a ride down to Springdale.

Happinow has a pie shaped lot on a cul de sac. Unfortunately for her, the best, unobstructed view does not align with the placement of the house. The view looking straight out the lanai/pool crosses not one but two adjacent lots. She needs to look out the Lanai to the right to see an unobstructed view, which as she said is limited because the lot is lower than the course, especially in that direction. Saw the orange line on the other property, and yes she is going to loose the best view. Even saw the guy with his two dogs walking them on the street chatting with some neighbors.

As I see it, Happi is going to have a tough time convincing this fellow to be a "good"(for her) neighbor because he isn't even the closest neighbor that could obstruct the view, and he lives in the next cul de sac. Not like they will be bumping into each other every day picking up the morning paper.

Happi paid a lot of money for the lot and the house and it's a shame that she thought she was getting a great view.

I also live on a golf course. I paid $16,000 more than Happi did for her lot but got a much better view (championship course green, big oaks, eastern exposure, no cart path and large water hazard). We walked our street for weeks, if not months, knowing the lots would be released soon, trying to determine which lot was "the best". Every night my wife would drag me down there to walk each prospective lot to see which view was unobstructed. Which lot would accommodate the model we chose. Which lot would fit a golf cart garage. Which lot would have room for a pool. Also used the Sumter county plats, which were available even before the lots were released, if you knew where to go to get them, to determine dimensions, easements, drainage and utility box placements. The day the lots were released, we got our first choice of five potential lots. My point is, sometimes you luck into a great view but due diligence insures it.

I hope Happi can realize that this guy is entitled to do what he intends, as I see it. She is on the next block over, even though their properties touch, with another property in between. He also paid a lot of money for his lot and view as well. If for some reason he were forced to remove a "hedge", a plethora of non hedge sugar palms would not be any better for the view from Happi's lanai.

I don't think Happinow has posted since Gustavo made his comments. I was hoping to hear from her because I just don't understand Gustavo's description. Perhaps he was looking at the wrong house? I think Happinow backs on a golf course. I don't understand how you can back on someone who lives in the next cul de sac?

Hopefully Happi has been able to resolve the issue and is busy playing golf. It's always interesting to hear about these situations and how they're resolved .. that is what makes TOTV such a great website.

I agree - don't leave us hanging. Very, very cuious how things are working out.

[Happinow]

Nothing to report.......nothing going on.

Maybe the orange marks were for invisible fencing for dogs.
