London Bay Homes has completed construction of the Carmela, the first single-family luxury model home in Caminetto – its new 15-home boutique neighborhood in Mediterra.
Featuring fountained lake and nature preserve views, the Carmela offers 3,835 square feet of interior living space and special outdoor destinations – including a private yoga garden – that provides a connection to nature.
In the Carmela, Melissa Allen of Romanza Interior Design blended transitional and contemporary styles with long-plank oak flooring and painted box beams in several rooms, combined with textures and patterns in a sophisticated palette of gray and white paired with blush, gold and bronze.
The Carmela offers three bedrooms, three full baths, a study with a nearby powder room, and a formal dining room. Sliding glass doors in the great room and cafe open to an expansive outdoor kitchen, living and dining area overlooking the sun deck and custom pool and spa. Nearby, a fire pit offers additional seating.
The gourmet kitchen features white and gray painted cabinetry, polished quartz countertops and a mixed-size horizontal mosaic backsplash. Appliances include a dual-fuel, six-burner stainless steel Wolf range and hood, a 42-inch Sub-Zero French door refrigerator with bottom freezer drawer, and a microwave with a drop-down door. The kitchen also offers a freestanding island breakfast bar and adjoining walk-in pantry closet and butler’s bar with a wine refrigerator.
Spanning the entire length of the home, the master suite offers French doors to the sun deck, dual walk-in closets and a spa-like bath luxuriously appointed with a frameless shower and a freestanding oval tub. Through a vestibule, a French door allows private access to the yoga garden’s wood-style platform and water feature.
Across the home, two guest suites offer private full baths and oversized closets.
With coastal contemporary architecture enhanced by a shaker-tile roof and rough-sawn cedar fascia, the Carmela at 16851 Caminetto Court offers an attached two-car garage and a freestanding single-car garage. The fully furnished model is priced at $2,850,000.
Completion of the Carmela brings the total number of models by London Bay Homes open for viewing at Mediterra to seven. The Sonoma, the second model in Caminetto, is scheduled for completion later this month.
Located in Mediterra’s Garden Neighborhood, Caminetto is close to the two-acre Parterre Garden, featuring meandering walkways, benches poised to lake views, formal garden spots and an iconic reflecting pond with decorative stone frog waterspouts.
