Screened porch
Check out the Charlotte model for sale, VLS#242580, on The Villages web site. It has a screened porch. There are photos from outside and inside the porch. Looks like a nice cozy spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening cocktail.

We did book with Joes Screens. Came highly recommended and we had a good feeling about them. Already submitted the arc. We had one quote that was over double of everyone else because he said we needed to install another electrical outlet outside the screen room because we would be enclosing our current outlet inside the screenroom.. Our linai has just the internal oulet. Nobody else said that . and never heard of doing that. We will see if the arc says we need to do that...

Screening in tiny front porch?
I'm so happy with my decision to screen in my front porch area. It keeps birds out (they kept trying to make nests in a wall hanging out there, and were leaving droppings. I also used to have issues with mud dobbers (wasps that make mud nests on walls). Those problems are now solved, and I think it has enhanced the appearance of my house. It's a bonus that when packages are delivered and placed in the screened-in area, no one can really see them from the road. I had Cook Aluminum do the installation (ask for Thumper). The number is (352) 342 7809. I'm very happy with the quality of their work.

We just screened in our front entry and love it. We kept getting wasps and even snails. Made a mess on the walls.
It’s so much cleaner now. It looks amazing and wish we had done it sooner. We had tiled the floor previously. T & D did ours and they did an excellent job.

Make sure they do the tighter screening material that tiny bugs can’t get through. I think it’s called 20/20? Several neighbors near us who’ve had this done said ARC approval wasn’t required for screened porches. Maybe it depends on the district? I’m in 13. We will definitely check on that before proceeding. We got one quote a few months ago, and the electrical outlet wasn’t mentioned, but it’s definitely something we’d want to do as part of the job.
