Most Florida villas have a disappointing view from the pool deck. Either you are
starring at your neighbors swimming in their pool, or, you have a wall or white
vinyl fence.
But not us!
When we stayed in July, Our view was of a
large open field of pine trees! We learned why while talking to a real estate
agent. Apparently that land is owned by a elderly doctor who has refused to sell
it to the developers. He has held onto the land all this time. And now they have
discovered gopher turtles on the land. These turtles are called gophers because
they dig into the ground. And gopher turtles are on the endangered species list.
So now that highly valued and treasured land isn't as valued anymore. I benefit
by having a nice view from the pool deck, and seeing the occasional turtle
munching on weeds.
