We Are Finally Here
Husband and I arrived Friday. Have been looking at houses. Head is spinning! We looked at a CYV over in St. James. Anybody out there in the St. James/Tamarind Grove area? We are debating preowned or new. Would appreciate hearing from any potential neighbors. Happy Fourth of July!!!

Hi! We understand the "head spinning" part. We are building a Sun Kissed on Ansley Path in Tamarind Grove. Have fun and good luck.

I have noticed there are fewer of the Savanah and Key Villas being built and more of the "newer" models which seem to be costing a few more dollars if that helps. George |

Welcome to The Villages. This is the best place in the world to live. We know, our second time in The Villages.

We are building in Tamarind Grove. We considered a CYV but felt we needed a bigger garage. They are nice, though especially the privacy in the back. So we traded that off for a bigger garage. I think TG has a really nice pool area and there are several nice rec centers close by. I'm sure you will find something you like, Good luck and have fun looking around.

There are a couple of beautiful designer Lantana models on Talley Ridge Drive on the Glenview golf course for sale. Very low bond on them.

There are a couple of CYV with a two car garage in Tamarind Grove at the end of the street. I think they are very nice. Brand new.

After 8 months of researching both VLS and MLS for a pre-owned house with open backyard in a village located south of Stillwater and after reading dozens of TOTV posts on the topic of buying new vs used, we decided on a new construction designer home in St James. That decision is what worked best for us. We chose St James for many reasons- convenient location: to 2 regional Rec centers, 4 golf courses, 2 shopping plazas (Colony and the new one to be built on 466a near library, easy and quick access to 2 major roadways (BV Blvd and 466a) but w/out the noise and through traffic; great location: once the villages south of 466a are built, St James will be perfectly nestled between the 2 newest town squares, the village does not border non-village owned land so all homes will be insulated inside the bubble by surrounding villages; a sense of community: it already has a well-organized and active social/community club; and bc the village is so new and therefore does not have an established neighborhood meaning that [/I]generally speaking[/I] the residents are younger retirees who are first time residents of TV which creates certain je ne sais quoi vibe to St James. My advice to you is to research TOTV forums to learn about the pro/cons of buying new/used from posters, evaluate their comments, and then make whatever decision is best for you and your situation. No decision is a wrong decision if its the best fit for you. And BTW, if your head is spinning now, just wait til you move to TV and have to select from among the hundreds of actvities to do every day. |

gmcneill, "...and then make whatever decision is best for you and your situation. No decision is a wrong decision if its the best fit for you."
Well said! And good luck to you on your new purchase in St. James. |
