Venetian Isle in St. Petersburg, Florida

This gated community is full of large homes on beautiful properties.  There are 91 homes with 4 to 5 bedrooms each.  These homes are spacious and beautiful with the land being glorious and glamorous.  There is truly a feeling of being on top of the world in this gated community.  This beautiful location boasts beautiful tennis courts and a gated park.  There are many great views one can see from their home in this glamorous gated community.

The downfall is that there are many rules that one must follow to preserve the quality of life for all residents and the resale value of the home and the neighborhood.  These rules are a combination of city ordinances, community covenants and board rulings.  Some of these rules include the ability to change the outside of the home.  This means that any changes must be approved by the board and must fit within the rules that the community has set up.  There are also certain shades that one is allowed to paint the homes.  This is to preserve the color coordination of the homes.  The most extreme of the rules is that no pickup trucks or commercial vehicles are allowed to be parked at the park for more than 4 hours while mobile homes, buses, and campers are not allowed at all.  There is also no hanging of one's clothing outside.

These rules are a small price to pay for those who are looking for the benefits of living in a gated community.  There are many benefits to living in a gated community.  One such benefit is the security that a gate provides.  It is considerably more difficult to get into the community, and therefore more difficult to rob the residents of that community.  There is also the guarantee that the property value will not decrease due to one's own action or the actions of the neighbors.  This can be quite a relief for those who have owned property for considerable time in the area, especially knowing that the property values in some areas are decreasing due to poor property management and developments.  The rules also help to enhance one's quality of life by providing fair rules for everyone to follow, allowing no one to boast of wealth, or to feel less wealthy by not having the mobile homes or boats, as no one is to have those on the properties.
