You really don't know what you are talking about. Homes in Florida and yes, The Villages also that have open space that may include water views sell at a higher price than that that don't have this privacy. I will hand it to you, you started a pretty good "clickbait" post.

your correct about homes and him .I owned and lived in 14 homes all but one of them new and a couple of condos ocean front all over florida , privacy no matter if it’s a retention pond , pond or just trees ,always cost more and always sells for more and faster when you want to move

There's a big giant world out there, beyond Florida and in much of it, living on a drainage basin is not considered "premium", it's the opposite.

I doubt that anyone living on one of these ponds would consider them a drainage ditch, only those who have not experienced The Villages water front living would do so and most likely enjoy their kissing lanais.
