What the owner says about this home We have lived and loved this home for 20 years. The Florida room is our favorite room in the house with all the glass windows and view of the pond . We enjoy this room year round. I love all the closet space and easy to clean flooring. The over-sized 2 car garage has space for vehicles, storage, tools, and a workbench along with laundry area. The houses here are nice with manageable yards, many with gorgeous tropical landscaping. Scottish Highlands is really a special community and we’ve made some life-long friends. It’s quiet and yet offers plenty of activities for those that want to participate. I like the water aerobics classes, playing cards with several different groups, and we enjoy going to dances.
