In my courtyard villa there is a valve on the back wall of the garage, near the floor. There is also a valve outside under one of the boxes in my front yard. Hope that helps.

Call The Villages Home Warranty - they can tell you everything about your specific home - 352-753-6222.

Note that if your house has a whole house water softener or filter system, you can probably turn off the water at that location in the garage.

It's in the garage in the 12" x 12" panel near the floor as stated. I had a handyman put a straight handle to make it easier to turn the water off and on and also had him put a hinged door for easy opening and closing. I always turn my water off if I am going to be gone for a few days.
p.s. don't forget to drain the water after you turn it off. Just open the faucet until the water stops coming out and then turn off the faucet.

Every unit can be different, the shut off can be in the garage or outside. The simplest is to call the District Office, 753-4508, and they will connect you with the department that has the details. It could be the utility department or community standards, I can’t remember which. Once you find it, consider having a convenient location installed inside your garage. It’s not expensive and can be useful when traveling or in an emergency.

Yes they are different and every home owner needs to know this information if only
for emergency's only.
Don't forget as stated, there are two shut-offs, one for the house and one for the irrigation.

That’s a great thing to know! But some people don’t know.

Getting into the box outside could get someone into trouble. That is property of a utility

[notme6w]

In the garage most likely on an outside wall, look for a panel door in wall near floor

[HJBeck]

Should be in the garage low near the floor behind a plastic cover. Ball valve. may be a little hard to turn if it hasn't been turned for a while.

I bought a CYV 10 months ago and it was hard to find. But it was same as what you said. I had to keep shoveling rocks until I found it. Then left it partially exposed so easy to find again.

best thing to do is go to your next door neighbor that has the same model and ask him to show you his valve location. From retired ny lic.plumber.jr

Hello, have you ever thought to call a plumber that might give you the answer over the phone?

I doubt it. You will only get a receptionist who won't know the answer.
