    Yes I looked.  It is 20 feet on the one side where the house sticks out but 40+ feet on the other side.

    Alta Vista and Bella Vista at Orchard Hills

    mosquitos will hang out near the water so I do not think they will be an issue.  My mom lives next to the water basin in Pavilion Park and no issues there.  There are ducks as well but they never bothered my Mom either.  ;) On the positive it will be a good separator from the smaller homes that...

    Alta Vista and Bella Vista at Orchard Hills

    Hard to predict but I would not buy Amelia if Bella Vista is your preference.  I believe the Vistas will make it very difficult for Trevi and Amelia.  So if new Trevi and Amelia home sales are suffering because of the Vistas, resales will be even worse unless you give it away.

    Hence the dilemma.  With or without view I need my outdoor spaces or movingup is right you won't use it.  But I guess that is why I like large lots, I build it out and use it.  14000 sq ft would be a dream for me.  I think 9000 sq ft and a view would be even better but it may be out of reach.  I...

    We are outside all the time.  Covered outside kitchen, dining, living with fireplace.  Open dining, firepit, and pool.  Also a half covered jaccuzzi.  When guests come over we are almost always outside even in winter where we turn on the outside heaters. New lot at Bella Vista will have more...

    They actually said 500K-1M for the ones higher up and on the other side but thought they were inflating just to get folks to buy now.  Could be 200K minimum I would guess but maybe you are right and it will be more like 300-500K.  If the premium is 500K I will not be buying which is why I am...

    Yes exactly.  Buy large lot now or wait for later view within Bella Vista.  Alta Vista view lots available now don't have much of a view.  Not sure about the lack of sun light.  I think that is fine.  I agree that backing to a hill although private blocks any view of mountains.  Just afraid at...

    You are right I think the view lots may command more like 500k. Alta Vista is above the hill but the sales staff say they are not or barely visible.  Their backyard setback is 40 feet and the hill is about 70 feet high itself and the slope is pretty steep.

    Plenty of items that I don't like about Amelia in general and the plan 2 especially but that's me.  I personally like Cielo a lot.  It is all personal preference.  So if your cousin really likes Amelia plan 2 then its a no brainer.  Especially since it is cheaper and she gets extra money for...

    Lot preference

    1) 9000 sq ft view lot with neighbors on both sides 2) 14000 sq ft lot with neighbors on both sides but backs to a landscaped hill. Yes there all all kinds of other lots but between these two which would you choose?  I may have such a decision coming up soon and would love to get some...

    Wonder if Hidden Canyon (or even Orchard Hills for that matter) sales will take a hit now that Toll Brothers has opened in Orchard Hills? They just increased inventory for basically the same houses at similar phase I prices.  I guess it will come down to location once OH prices catch up.  I...

    Just stopped by the Bella Vista sales office today to take a look.  They let you in the framed models but you have to be escorted and wear hardhats.  That Cielo plan looks really impressive with the two story dining area and dual stair case.  At 5000+ sq feet Cielo looks very impressive. They...

    Hey that reminds me.  Anyone know what is going on with the supermarket?  I think it was Albertsons there at first.  They shutdown and then someone came in (forget the name) for just a 3 months before they eventually closed up.  There has been no supermarket there for at least 6 months since...
