Winston, did you happen to notice the doublewide they are removing from the corner of Schwartz and Lauren Lane? They aren't razing the home. They are moving the home so it has obviously been sold. It will be interesting to see what replaces that nice manufactured home. I don't think it has anything to do with the properties Mr. Morse has bought. I just thought I'd throw it out there and ask if you'd noticed while you were driving around the hood.

More accurately it is not a chain it is a cable. The cable has a loop at one end that goes over a hook in a wooded post. The cable can be dropped to the ground for access. This cable setup is outside of The Village boundary.

I am fascinated by this thread!
You guys could make a fantastic detective team!! It certainly looks like that landlocked property will be subdivided in the near future. With the renovation of Orange Blossom club and pool and TV purchasing some of the lesser maintained properties, it looks to me as if the Morse family has made a commitment to keep the historic section's values up and keep the residents happy. That in itself is amazing commitment on the part of any developer. Most make their $$ and off they go. Never to be seen again. The a Villages is different in so many ways. Much having to do with the developer 's commitment to quality, long after it would be expected ! I think that's called integrity. |

I was told by a realtor a while back (and I think that this is nothing but speculation on his part) that The Historical District will be almost all site built homes in about 20 years or so. That's going to be difficult because many people are replacing older manufactured homes with newer manufactured homes. I don't see them getting sold to be torn down in twenty years. On the other hand, my neighbor was considering tearing down his house and replacing it was a new much larger manufactured home, but is now considering a site built home.

I don't know why you say that. I'm very happy with him doing this. Hopefully it will drive our home values up.

Actually, the developers' continued interest in the historic side (renovation of the country club, pool, and golf course) was part of our recent decision to buy there. It's going to be kept nice, and that makes our investment more secure! Happy to hear!

We drove some new friends through the historic side last night and it's beauty and tall trees and large lots...and smaller lots with cozy homes and newer homes too... never cease to amaze me. From the oldest part to the very newest part, each home in The Villages is someone's beloved home. Their shelter from the storms of life and their launching pad for all kinds of fun activities and places for friends tp visit.
We are all older citizens living here in a very wonderful part of our lives. The size and age of our homes are different, just as we all are different but so similar in many ways.

Yes, replacing the rundown properties would be a good thing but not if it eliminates the eclectic atmosphere and turns the area into another invasion of the clones. At any rate, I have no dog in this fight and enjoy reading the results of everyone's research-you guys are good.
