I'm able to sleep in a bit today, as I'm not showing until 3:00 PM. Around 7:45, the pooch jumps on the bed and demands my waking up. Mimi is a Rhodesian Ridgeback, about 75 pounds or so. Eating is one of her favorite activities.
I'm taking my clients to Villagio today, a community located in Estero, Florida, a small, tropical community located between Fort Myers and Bonita Springs. I haven't been to that particular community in a few months, but I've done my research. I'm showing four carriage homes. Carriage homes are similar to townhomes, only the garage is located on the first floor and the living quarters are on the second. There is no one below or above you. All four units show well. All have similar floor plans, a great room with open kitchen overlooking a serene lake. The lanai provide a nice view of the Lake and the community. All four homes possess granite counters and wood cabinets in the kitchens and bathrooms. The difference is the flooring. Two of the units have tiles throughout and two are with substantial carpeting. My clients, a sweet couples in their 30's who are buying their first home in anticipation of starting a family, prefer the first and last unit that we see. They decide to make an offer on the first. I agree with them. Great, unusual type of shutters on the lanai glass doors, lovely cream tiles throughout the home and that great view of the lake from the living room, master bedroom and kitchen. The second bedroom boasts a view of the community pool. Speaking of the community, what a charming tropical hideaway. Villagio is a gated community with a guard 24 hours manning the gate. Inside the community, in addition to the pools, there is a restaurant, bar, movie theater and lovely landscaping and outside sitting areas
On the way home, I stop at the Fresh Market on 41 in Fort Myers, a simply delicious gourmet market. I always purchase a pound of the tuna, that is made from fresh tuna, and some of their delectable desserts. Today, I opt for two chocolate croissants and a lemon bar.
Off for home, Fort Myers Beach, as I've a contract to prepare and email to answer
The weather: mid 80's, partly sunny and low humidity. I hope that I have time for a bike ride later.
