NAPLES, Fla. (May 3, 2016) – London Bay Homes has started construction on the first of two planned grand estate homes on prime homesites in Port Royal, considered among the most exclusive neighborhoods in the United States.

Overlooking Cutlass Cove toward the southernmost point of scenic Gordon Drive, the two-story Cayman model will span 6,394 square feet under air.

Designed for waterfront living, the Cayman will offer a private boat dock with quick access to the Gulf of Mexico through nearby Gordon Pass. The five-bedroom custom home will also showcase water views with floor-to-ceiling windows, bay windows in the master suite and sliding glass doors that open to outdoor gathering areas.

The model will have an elevator, floating staircase, five full baths and two half baths.

Emphasizing an open floor plan design, the Cayman’s great room will flow into a large nook and kitchen with minimal definition between rooms. The kitchen will feature an oversized freestanding island breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry closet.

The nook’s sliding glass doors will open to the covered outdoor living area elevated above the pool deck. The alfresco space will offer a fully equipped summer kitchen and introduce the model’s first water features – two reflecting pools with mosaic tiled spillovers flanking each side of the stairway to the open-air pool deck.

A trio of water spouts built into the wall below the outdoor living area will channel water into the linear pool, which will have a built in bench. A separate spa will be designed flush with the pool deck, and a nearby sunken patio will feature a fire pit.

The Cayman’s master bedroom will overlook one of the reflecting pools from its floor-to-ceiling bay window. The suite will also feature his-and-her walk-in closets and a private bathroom with his-and-her vanities, a tub and shower.

A loft, lounge and two baths create privacy for two guest suites located on the second floor. A separate VIP room is designed as a second master suite, offering a bay window sitting area, a walk-in closet, full bathroom and private access to a large covered terrace overlooking the pool.

Also located on the second floor, a guest apartment offers a bedroom with bay windows cantilevered above the motor court, a private bathroom and a separate morning kitchen with a sink and refrigerator.

The Cayman is a modern West Indies inspired design by Naples-based Stofft Cooney Architects, with clean-lined symmetry, louvered doors on its one- and two-car garages, and large windows with transparent views through the home.

The Cayman is located at 4375 Gordon Drive. It will be fully furnished by Romanza Interior Design.

A peninsula with homes along the coves and back bays of Naples Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, Port Royal is considered a boater’s paradise. The Cayman includes membership eligibility in Port Royal Club and Cutlass Cove Beach Club.

The Cayman is among several luxury floor plans created by London Bay Homes for the Naples Collection, on-your-lot custom homes and models in prestigious neighborhoods from Park Shore to Port Royal.

A leader in the Southwest Florida luxury home market for 25 years, London Bay is redefining luxury living. The company earned a 2013 Silver Award for Best Architectural Design of a One-of-a-Kind Home during The Nationals, sponsored by the National Association of Home Builders.

All London Bay Homes are built using the latest information, products and technology available in building science, including the BEP Blue Barrier moisture barrier system that protects against mold issues and structural damage from moisture intrusion.

London Bay Homes was one of only two companies named America’s Best Builder by Builder magazine in 2008. The company builds new luxury custom homes from $1 million to more than $10 million in many of the region’s most exclusive neighborhoods and communities. The company also builds private residences on individual homesites in Old Naples, the Sarasota Keys and along the Gulf of Mexico.
