London Bay Homes' bay front Mandeville estate model on Siesta Key reaches halfway milestone

Written by Kathy Gulvas | April 18, 2017

SARASOTA, Fla. (April 18, 2017) – London Bay Homes has reached the halfway construction point of the Mandeville model, one of London Bay Homes’ custom single-family estate homes in Spice Bay, an intimate eight-acre gated community of only 14 homes on the southern end of Siesta Key.

The two-story Mandeville will offer covered outdoor living areas and terraces, second-floor balconies, and under-roof and open-sun terraces that display sweeping Sarasota Bay views.

With an open floor plan between great room, kitchen, dining area and parlor, the Mandeville will offer four bedrooms, a study, wine cellar, walk-in pantry, four full baths and two half-baths within more than 5,000 square feet of living space.

Romanza Interior Design’s Melissa Allen is creating a transitional interior design for the Mandeville with a contemporary blend of classic and modern style in a palette of light neutrals accented with jewel-toned textiles.

The first-floor master suite will feature a bay window sitting area, dual walk-in closets connected by a hallway, and an expansive bathroom with dual vanities, separate shower and tub, and a water closet with a bidet.

 “Large format porcelain tile will line every inch of the master bath with exception of the ceiling, transforming it into a modern Zen retreat,” said Allen.

The kitchen’s rich-stained and white painted rift-cut oak veneer cabinetry is complemented by

cloud quartz countertops and a freestanding island breakfast bar.

The Mandeville will feature tray and beamed ceilings throughout and connections to outdoor spaces from most rooms. The master suite and study will offer private access to a covered terrace.      The model’s three second-floor bedrooms, accessible by both an open staircase and elevator, will have walk-in closets and private full baths. One, designed as a second master suite, will offer dual vanities, a private covered terrace and a sun terrace.

Additional outdoor areas will include an open deck with a Caribbean blue zero-edge pool and built-in spa accented with narrow bands of cobalt sea tile, a large covered living room, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen. A bay front fire pit is steps from the home’s private dock on the Intracoastal Waterway.

The Mandeville’s classic coastal contemporary architecture is accented with a cupola, multiple pitched roofs, and a side-loading two-car garage with weathered teak stained doors.

Slated for completion in summer 2017, the Mandeville is priced at $5,125,000, fully furnished.

A leading homebuilder and developer in the Southwest Florida home market for more than 25 years, London Bay Homes has been named America’s Best Builder by Builder magazine and has earned more than 300 industry awards.
