NAPLES, Fla. (March 7, 2013) – London Bay Homes has started construction of the four-bedroom Annalisa, a new maintenance-free single-family estate model home in the Cortile neighborhood at Mediterra. Offering 5,277 square feet of air conditioned living space, the Annalisa will be the largest model home when it opens in April within Naples’ premier golf and beach community.
Cortile residents enjoy a maintenance-free lifestyle, with pool service, landscaping and lawn care covered through the homeowners association.
The Annalisa offers a great room with a fireplace, a family room featuring a sloped ceiling and zero-corner sliding glass doors, study, breakfast nook, attached two-car garage, and a second two-car garage connected by a trellised walkway, within the home’s more than 7,800 total square feet.
The floor plan is designed with many of the signature features that have made London Bay one of Southwest Florida’s leading luxury homebuilders: a kitchen with an oversized island breakfast bar, walk-in pantry and home office, a tech center, and multiple outdoor living areas, including an entry courtyard, loggia, porch and an al fresco living and dining room with a summer kitchen.
The Annalisa also offers a butler’s pantry with refrigerator and icemaker, wine room with a barrel ceiling, powder room and three guest suites with walk-in closets and private full baths.
The model will feature stone floors throughout the main living areas, beamed and stepped ceilings, and wood flooring in the master suite’s two walk-in closets and bedroom, where sliding glass doors open to the loggia. The master bath will have a stone floor and offer his and her vanities, a tub and separate shower with a built-in seat.
The Annalisa’s pool and outdoor living areas will overlook golf and preserve in Cortile, a neighborhood of 46 maintenance-free luxury villas and single-family estate homes. Home and homesite packages in Cortile are priced from $1.3 million.
London Bay Homes, a leader in the Naples luxury home market for more than two decades, was one of only two companies named America’s Best Builder by Builder Magazine in 2008.
The 1,700-acre master-planned Mediterra community is the seven-time winner of the Collier Building Industry Association’s Sand Dollar Award for Community of the Year. Mediterra offers an array of lifestyle amenities, including the member-owned Club at Mediterra with two Tom Fazio-designed championship courses and the private 10,000-square-foot Beach Club on the Gulf of Mexico, featuring an elevated swimming pool, casual dining with a full bar, and valet service for beach chairs, umbrellas and beverage and food menus.

Planned for fewer than 950 homes, Mediterra’s master plan includes more than 1,000 acres dedicated to open space with golf, parks and nature preserves. All of the community’s amenities are membership-owned.
Since December 2009, London Bay and affiliates have managed all new home sales and marketing for the luxury community. London Bay recently expanded services by adding Mediterra Realty, which lists resale properties throughout Mediterra.
