I think you've made a wise decision. You never know what might be going on on the other side of that fence, or what the future might hold. I know you're looking for a Ruby patio villa, so did you also see this one? VLS#226963. It's a little more expensive, but still on a corner lot & has a bird cage attached to the lanai.

The pretty open pasture never stays open and pretty. I just would not take a chance on what is going in on the other side of the wall. But that’s just me

I always go with omunious gut feelings,..Non villager, hobbies might be turning his garage into a wood shop, or building a big metal boat, crack house, cat house, gambling den, stash house for human trafficking, cocaine cowboys...It is FLORIDA after all....

With the exception of building a big metal boat, I'm sure that all of the others are happening somewhere within TV.

Buyer Beware
The people that bought homes in Pinellas, that back up to 466A, thought they had a nice woods view. Now they are going to be in the plume of Burger King's belching exhaust.
Caveat emptor. |

While I cannot speak to this specific property, I did look at a designer on Lyall Loop (Fenney) that is on the edge of non-Villages property. We looked at the home after dark to see how much the light from the rec center would affect us. The whole time a dog barked from the non-villages area. I was considering a pool lot, but I decided that I did not want to hear a dog (to me was obviously an outdoor dog) bothering me into the evening. We did buy in Fenney, just not bordering non-village property.

Excessive dog barking is handled by the Wildwood Police Department. However, they cannot do anything about cows or roosters and they do exist down here. I think the roosters would be the most annoying early in the morning.

I don't recall any woods view along that stretch of 466A. I do recall pasture land with livestock to reduce the tax burden of the land owners, and an oak tree here and there.

Any home that is on the border of The Villages is not a good location. Having non Villagers on any side of a property is not ideal, in my humble opinion. You never know what you are going to get on the other side of that fence. No recourse if it becomes undesirable.

In my opinion, the rule of thumb to use here is buy the house that you like in the location you like. You don't get to choose your neighbors, but odds are you will have many more good ones than bad. I'd worry more about what might be on the other side of a fence 2 years from now than what is there now. Many of the properties I have seen that border or are around this area have for sale signs out and some have even sold already. As to your question about on resentment, my bet is that quite a few aren't happy about it while others don't care or they see it as an opportunity. But I haven't seen any protesters marching in the streets or throwing things at passing cars - they keep to themselves. As for burning trash, I can't say a non-villager hasn't done that, but I'm not seeing any evidence that it is a regular or even weekly occurrence. However, I have seen huge piles of things being burned by the developer as the area is quickly transforming into residential developments and/or supporting infrastructure. As for dogs barking - most dogs bark and many villagers have dogs, including me. Mine happen to not bark often or much, but it's unrealistic to move anywhere here and never expect to hear dog barking. I do hear a rooster crowing in the distance from time to time. It's not loud from my location, I can only hear it if I'm outside, and I find it, if anything, kind of charming. We've lived here 7 months after moving down here 8 months ago with no intentions of buying this far south. We don't regret anything and have loved every minute. |

From what we have observed, that is trash burning day for the locals. |

Wrong Village, this thread is about Fenney and Desoto, no McClure.

The kind of locals who live next to McClure are VERY different from the kind of locals that live next to Fenney. |
