I feel it's important to preface, I'm not talking about the really pretty Naples houses and Naples condos you've grown accustomed to seeing if you're familiar with my market. I'm talking about the kind of properties that will absolutely leave you breathless.
I've been previewing and showing pretty much solid for the last few weeks. I've also been keeping my eye on the market almost as often as I did during our crazy days back in '04 and '05 because I have buyers who want specific product that simply isn't available right now.
Just this evening I noticed a new listing that hit the market in the Strand at Bay Colony...one of the most exceptional locations in all of Naples. Currently there are three for sale there which is unusual but more importantly the FINEST OF THEM ALL just went on the market today. I had the luxury of dining there during the Naples Winter Wine Festival a few years back and I simply can't tell you how phenomenal this property is. Anybody who has walked by on the beach knows which one I'm talking about and anyone who's "anyone" knows how truly amazing this place is.
This estate along with the other two fabulous listings located in The Strand are not properties designed for the weak at heart. It will take a pretty penny to purchase one of those magnificent homes with prices beginning at a cool $14,990,000 and increasing from there but I think they're worth it. The owners know they are too and will be the type of owner who will wait for the right person to step up to the plate.
Now before you get your hopes up in taking a drive by or perhaps scheduling a showing, be prepared. There are two gates preventing you from doing a drive by and even the sweetest talking driver can't get through them. Also, be prepared to show a little documentation proving you have the means to make the purchase. There won't be a broker's tour and they won't open the door for just anyone.
If you find those choices to be a little out of your budget or perhaps estate homes are not your style, l'd love to introduce you to some of the luxury high rise condos I've been previewing as of late. The Windsor is considered THE building to be in on the beach at Bay Colony and there is every good reason for that. There are currently three units available there starting at $5,699,000 and continue to increase in price to slightly over $10,500,000.
I've only previewed two as the last is entirely out of my customer's desired price range but the two I saw are guaranteed to tickle your "I gotta have that" bone. There's also a magnificent unit in Remington that cannot go without mention. The decor there is absolutely awesome but when it comes right down to it, there's a unit in The Windsor that made my eyes water. The decorating and lay out may be the absolute best I've ever seen....EVER.
Continuing to Park Shore there's a high rise condo at Le Rivage that I would give another highest rate of approval on. Again the floor plan and decor here was above exceptional. The location for those who prefer more of a city feel might choose this location over Bay Colony and between this one and the one in The Windsor, if it were my money well, I might have to buy both and try them out for awhile before finally deciding...they are that great.
I also had the opportunity to preview one of only two beachfront villas for sale in Park Shore. Again a spectacular place offering something unique and special that the Park Shore beachfront high-rises can't do. A private pool with view of the beach, soaring ceilings and ample square footage with a fabulous floor plan are just a few of the superb attributes this place has to offer. A must see if nearly $4,000,000 is within your range.
Continuing South I could not complete my post without mentioning three more fabulous Old Naples homes I've either shown or previewed within the last couple of weeks. Price ranges start at a "wiggle" over $2,000,000 and increase to a whisper under $6,000,000. All of them are remarkable in their own outstanding ways. The lowest priced one I firmly believe is the best deal in Old Naples and is an absolute knock out. The character and appeal displayed throughout every inch of this home will please the most discriminating buyer and if that buyer is somehow attached to the most number driven counterpart, even they will find no reason to turn it down. This home is a perfect match for both parties.
My next favored property is located just over a stone's throw to the beach and within a tiny distance to 3rd Street where fine dining and shopping awaits. It has been masterfully decorated and the home design must have been brilliantly selected for the lot overlooking a beautiful lake. It will take a tiny bit more ranking in at almost $6,000,000 but again, the buyer who "wins" this one is winning something truly sweet.
My last notable property I've had the luxury of previewing is not on the market yet and I doubt it will be on long. It's a brand new construction single family home on a fabulous over-sized lot with every custom feature included. It's beautiful, unique and exquisite not super formal or casual but possesses the ability to swing either way. The builder is one of the most highly regarded builders in all of Old Naples and there's no mystery as to why he holds such an outstanding reputation. You can see just by touring the home that he loves what he does and what he creates loves him back.
This has been a remarkable time for me. To see the magnitude of real estate I've seen has always been a dream of mine.
If you'd like to see what I see or if you'd like me to talk about your property the way I've described these, I'm happy to take your call.
