The county's contour maps shows this lot has elevations high enough it was previously classified as an "X-Flood" zone lot. That meant this lot had elevations showing it was out of the 500-year flood zone. FEMA has now changed the mapping system. However, what has NOT changed is the elevation. So, it is likely the higher elevation may qualify you for flood insurance and construction-cost discounts. For example, the elevation also has the potential for reducing your construction costs by minimizing or eliminating the need for fill or stem walls. In many cases, this can eliminate the need for steps leading up to your home. It also has the potential for minimizing or eliminating the need for stairs leading up to porches, side entries, garage-to-interiors, pool decks, etc. Eliminating these steps creates additional value as your home becomes more suitable for aging in place. Consult your builder directly for all the benefits and cost savings this can bring you! The scenic waterway (The Broadmoor Waterway) that forms your back-yard border is part of a unique, 26-mile, fresh- water canal system that connects all 7 subdivisions together. This is one of many canals that free flow into the larger system via the Rotonda River. These canals are stocked with fish. The abundance of fish is a magnet for other wildlife along the waterways. Sightings include bald eagles, osprey, great-blue heron, American egrets, wood storks, king-fishers, wild ducks, and much more. These wind-driven waterways also serve as seasonal hosts to bird migrations from Wisconsin to Central America. The area surrounding this property is in a designated bird sanctuary. This scenic waterway also provides a lifetime of free irrigation water, a significant savings year-after-year. That explains why so many homes on this street have lush sub-tropical landscaping. Another big plus is that the backyard enjoys nearly direct southern (SW) exposure. That provides maximum sunshine for the pool deck, as well as an abundance of free, natural heat for your pool.
