SARASOTA, Fla. (Oct. 10, 2016) – London Bay Homes’ Cedarberry waterfront model home on Bird Key sold nearly two months prior to completion for $3.5 million.
According to a national Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate Luxury Market Report released earlier this year, Sarasota was listed as the 18th city in the nation with the highest number of active luxury home listings priced at $1 million and up.
“Sarasota’s luxury market remains strong,” said Mark Wilson, president and CEO of London Bay Homes. “Our homes uniquely capture the luxury lifestyle that showcase quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. We are building on premium homesites in coveted neighborhoods close to everything that Sarasota has to offer and drawing buyers for the close proximity to world-class beaches and urban amenities.”
The Cedarberry has more than 4,500 square feet of luxurious living space, four bedrooms, a formal dining room, study, four full baths and a powder room. The home design combines the kitchen and great room into a spacious entertaining area, and the second floor offers a private retreat for guests.
Covered alfresco areas overlook a large sundeck with a fire feature and a pool, created in a linear design with a spa at one end and a shallow water shelf for chaise lounges at the other. The infinity waterfall edge pool with spa incorporates stepping pads dividing the sun shelf from the main pool leading to the dock.
The two-story Cedarberry, located on a canal providing direct deep-water Gulf access, emphasizes outdoor and waterfront features with expansive outdoor living areas intended for family enjoyment or entertaining year-round. The luxury home epitomizes Bird Key’s signature boating lifestyle complemented by wide waterways, easy access to the Gulf of Mexico, and sunrises and sunsets over the water.
Earlier this year, London Bay Homes announced the opening of a new office in Sarasota to support its continuing growth within Southwest Florida’s real estate market. The Cedarberry is among several single-family model homes currently under various stages of development on Siesta Key and Bird Key, and homesites west of Tamiami Trail. The homebuilder is also building and selling homes nearby at The Founders Club and within The Lake Club in Lakewood Ranch.

Each estate model is designed to capture a true sense of place, featuring West Indies and Contemporary Coastal architecture, hints of tropical ports-of-call, and the award-winning designs of Romanza Interior Design.
