Who has the Aspen designer model and tell me why you made the choice please.

From the model tour, I like the openness of the kitchen, dining room, living room and additional windows. It seems very bright.

Thank you

Hi again jhoo..Aspen is newer model, probably just in early 2011 as we viewed one in March and were told that the group of 4 homes on Paisley were "experimental" models - to get people's reactions. They were not even on the website then, though they are there now and appeared about when Sanibel was opened. We liked this plan also as we don't really "need" a dining room! There are lots of others with that openess and light so have fun! We are 99% the Gardenia will be our choice.

I'd never own one because I wouldn't want my friends to ask, "How's you Aspen?"

Now listen up you silly Frog's, I'm trying to figure out what model we want to purchase. You all are giving me rear end info, too much for my senses to comprehend. Just thinking about your rear running out of ink Bill, makes me think you just had a colonoscopy. Phew!!!

We will be leaving California the first week of November, with my Dad, two Yorkies and two to be frog's. We will be renting a place for two months, checking out the various model-homes. We can hardly wait to be with you funny people. Plus we want to check out your rear-ends. So Gracie you better get your's detailed.

Bill they are offering discounted rates for ink at Office depot, we want you to have a full inker.

See you all real soon!!!!

HURRY HOME, Sweetie!

We are currently leaning toward an Aspen. We have our lot picked out and just waiting for the house to sell. Originally we were going for a Gardenia, however, one of the reasons we liked the Aspen was the true 3rd bedroom with a closet. The Gardenia has a den. The Aspen has a bigger lanai, a linen closet near the guest bedrooms and a linen closet in the master bath. The living area is a bit bigger, however, the kitchen is a bit smaller but ok for us. Our dilemma is choosing between the Aspen and the Elm. Hopes this helps.

We bought an Aspen and we close on it on 3-14-12. We chose the Aspen because we are downsizing from 3200 sq. ft. to 1950 sq. ft. and we asked ourselves "what can we best do without?". We haven't used our dining room more than three times in the last 8 years. OK, we can do without the dining room. We thought the dining room and the nook were unnecessary.

Our second criteria was to have an open, bright floor-plan. The Aspen certainly is open and bright.

We also spend a lot of time on the patio and deck of our Northern home and we think we will be spending lots of time in our lanai. The Aspen has a real nice lanai which we are making 8' wider. So the lanai will be 28' x 19' 4". Room for a bowling alley?

We are closing on our Aspen today (in one hour). We like it because it has no dining room and is very open ... It has a big feeling! The Villages designers were very flexible; we got everything we wanted.
