A new development near Coleman?
 
It’s claim to fame is they have a prison there? As far as those big RV garages for the people that want their trailers close to them? The developer should only build them in one or two villages in that area. Make them all with RV garages. Try to make everyone happy…..and they will pay more for their property. To know that none of their neighbors will be turning them in for violation of the rules?
How nice it would be to live in a village with people that think like you and have instant friends to travel with. I can how people would love to live in areas that support their hobbies. I personally would not care to live next door to a guy who built his own wood work shop with his sawing all day.
So build them what they want in specific areas that will consider the rights of their neighbors…..it would be fair to everyone.

If you happened to be going down Marsh Bend Trail yesterday you may have seen the building that has been erected next to two designer homes on Corder Run in District 12. If you are thinking about purchasing a new home in
The Villages, you may want to be aware that the Developer Representative can and did grant an approval for an RV garage prior to the development being turned over to The Villages. The ARC process takes place once The Villages takes control over the completed neighborhood (approximately one year later?) for any new applications for permit and claims no responsibility for the acts of the Developer Representative.

This is exactly what has happened to a kind couple that lives next door to a now RV garage. This garage in my humble opinion seems to fail on three key points that fall under the Developer's Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Relating to: Villages of Southern Oaks Unit No. 30A.

2.4 "Harmonious with the development as to... design, size, and other qualities"; 2.5 "Developer shall grant its approval only in the event the proposed work (A) will benefit and enhance the entire Subdivision in a manner generally consistent with the plan of development thereof, and..." and 2.9 "Outside structure permanently attached to the Home" (granted the plans have some type of little wall planned to attach it later and a HUGE screened enclosure over covering all open area).

The Villages have seemingly washed their hands of what has happened here. It is nice little loop hole people have discovered at the expense of their future or current neighbors. Go to the Developer before YOUR neighborhood transfers to The Villages for approval to store an RV at your home.

Buyers Beware of this when you buy your designer home.

In my humble OPINION this is hardly harmonious, does not match the size, height of walls, design of the neighborhood and certainly does not enhance the neighborhood. It should be on radars of those purchasing.

Good lord. WTH does it matter?

All the s#%t going on in America and the world and someone is worried about an RV garage. I think it’s great with the cost of RV’s today it’s a way to keep it looking good.

How would you like it if you built a house in a residential area and than found out an RV garage would be your next door neighbor?

Sounds like someone is jealous that they can’t afford an RV in the garage. Mind your own business.

jimkerr 03-10-2022 09:02 AM

I see nothing wrong with an RV garage. Whether I look out my window and see stucco on a house or garage doesn’t matter.

Why can’t people be happy for our future Villages neighbors?

How would you feel if down the road you could not sell your house due to your next door neighbors large garage?

wouldn't matter to me, either way, it's not the end of the world

I agree that an RV garage can be an eyesore. If it were amongst PV or CYVs, it would be a serious issue. If, however, it is on a lot that can support the size of the structure with appropriate setbacks, etc. and the facade is similar to standard housing materials (not standard metal building), it can easily blend into the community and be a useful space to have.

So, I believe it largely depends on where it is located and how it is sheathed as to whether or not it is an eyesore.

Saw homes in Harbor Hills which had similar garage and they blended in with the existing structure and were not an eyesore.

Per OP this garage was per code and architectural standards. Before commenting responders should wait to see it when finished.

Awful, I would be heartbroken

I passed by in my golf cart yesterday. A large cement brick construction that didn't look like it belonged there right near the waterlily bridge. Feel sorry for the neighbors.

I don’t see a problem. Especially if the highway is behind them. It blocks the noise partially for you. I don’t own a RV but I agree it would look better in a garage than on the street. It needs to match the home. To me these small Villas with three garages or 2 1/2 spread across the front with a little sidewalk leading to a front door peaking out on the side looks just as bad. Again better than cars & boats parked in driveway.
