    I really enjoy watching your older videos, too. Glad I viewed this one. Linda’s house is absolutely gorgeous. Thanks to her for opening her home up and for you taping it for us. Your channel is 5 star!

    Hi Skip, lovely courtyard villa. Great lanai. Love the front porch area. Congratulations to Linda and her husband!

    This woman has great taste. Her house is just beautiful and perfect and I like that it is minimalistic. My kind of home. Thanks for the tour. Curious to know what a home like that would sell for.

    Thanks Skip and Sue, another informative video. Beautiful home. As most of us know, buy a house in the Villages, then be prepared to upgrade...for the amount they charge for a home you would think they could at least put handles on the cabinets. Noticed the ceiling fans are the village standards as well. They have done a lot already and should be proud.

    This is a beautiful home in a lovely neighborhood. We originally had a hold on the house right next door, but ended up buying another one in the same neighborhood overlooking the second hole of the Loblolly golf course. We closed on it during the hurricane! And, we have a pretty good collection of golf balls even though we are by the tee boxes!! On the plus side, I am no longer intimidated about learning to play golf 🤗. We found your videos very helpful when we were considering a home in The Villages.

    Skip, FYI - courtyard villas all come with full gutters. They may be the only spec built models TV builds with gutters already installed all around. Also, not sure how this one is in Linden or Monarch Grove when there are no golf courses over there. I'm guessing this was Patricia Villas in McClure and that's the Loblolly or Longleaf executive course in the back.

    • @gregg413
      @gregg413 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree - It looks like the house is near the practice putting greens for the Loblolly executive course in McClure. A very nice house by the way.

      My 2014 Courtyard Villa (Monticello) model home did not come with gutters and it still doesn't have them as of today. My home is currently located in the Village of Charlotte.

    Thank you for the video. Something I’m not used to seeing is having one side of the neighbor’s house actually in my backyard. It’s a little weird to me. What room is that window in on the neighbor’s house?

    Skip, in Kansas we call that Brumada grass.

    Skip is the house exterior walls made of poured in place concrete or Masonry Block with Stucco finish? I believe it is poured in place concrete as I noticed a repeat pattern on both Villas as you walked in between them.

      Hi Skip! 1) The Villa model is a "modified Avondale". They appear to make changes to basic models sometimes -- depending on the lot size, shape and/or location. 2) This is a Courtyard Villa with all Bungalow Villas. They are concrete block with stucco finish. (vs. Cabana Villas which are wood frame with vinyl siding.) 3) We had The Solar Guys install the vents & garage fan, above garage blown-in installation, garage door reflective insulation and automatic solar attic fan. They have special pricing and discounts depending on what and how many you select. 4) Galaxy Home Solutions (Tony & Amanda) did our electrical work including installing new chandelier, adding electrical outlets and changing out to high-speed USB ports.

    (Suzie) Wow, really like this place! Thinking about moving over there...we're in Texas and are horse owners...can't ride a lot of days because of the rain and knee deep mud...coming over to Florida again this winter to the wonderful horse trails!!

      I believe that fan in the garage is called a whole house fan. In CA open windows at night and the fan draws the night cool air and blows hot out through the attic. Very efficient and economical.

  • @smcpp50
    @smcpp50 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What are the estimated costs for insulation and fans in the garage?

    • @TheVillagesSkipSmith
      @TheVillagesSkipSmith  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Depends on the size of garage... My 2 car without cart area was 350$...Solar fans and such depends on who installs them, approx. 500$.. Maybe Linda could comment !!!

    do you have to garage your car... is there a problem if you keep your car in your driveway?

    • @TheVillagesSkipSmith
      @TheVillagesSkipSmith  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You can park your car in your driveway. Small boats and if you work on your own car then while working on it you must be under roof.

    Quit blaming snowbirds! They make your economy thrive. They bring good money with them, buy houses, rent houses, buy food in your grocery stores, eat in your restaurants, pay taxes etc. Florida thrives on tourism!

    Got an idea for a drinking game! Every time Skip SAYS "done" instead of proper "Did" take a shot. We will be drunk by end of video !!!!! LAUGH OUT LOUD
