- Subjective Value would be the amount of value an individual or family would place on any of the items from objective Value based on their perspective.

No, because lakes don't add objective value, they add subjective value. A community with a lake is not inherently better or more valuable than a community without a lake. It may hold more value to some people, making it something of subjective value. Location is another subjective measure, downtown holds more value for some while others would prefer the tranquility of Bragg Creek. The same goes for size of house, size of yard etc. I'd rather have a small yard than a big yard, and a compact home than a sprawling one. Each of these things requires personal desires to be called upon in determining it's value, which makes it quite obviously a subjective measure.
