New home buyers may have a home that includes special features to “personalize” a design to suit their family’s needs at Sapphire Cove, a new community of single-family homes developed by FL Star in South Naples.
“Giving buyers the opportunity to make changes to designs in our portfolio of home plans is a special attraction to families,” said Jim Borden, sales professional with FL Star. “This provides a home that is truly personal, adding the feature that is uniquely suited to their lifestyle. Many builders don’t allow changes to the floor plans they offer.”
Adding a three-car garage has proved to be a very popular change, Borden notes. Families have added a pool bath or an extra powder bath.
“One of the most unusual was a request for a lift in the garage to accommodate a collector’s special car,” Borden said. “There are many other possibilities; perhaps a pet bath in the laundry room or a closet. All of these are in addition to the numerous options already available, such as a custom pool, an outdoor fireplace, and an outdoor kitchen.”
“Buyers are coming to Sapphire Cove for that reason,” Borden said. “They appreciate the ability to make changes to any of the designs in our portfolio. Of course we also provide an array of choices for interior finishes, details, cabinetry, flooring, paint colors – so many ways buyers can make the home truly personal.”
Sapphire Cove offers a selection of eight home plans with both single-story and two-story designs, ranging from a spacious home with three bedrooms plus a study in 1,915 square feet to an expansive plan with four bedrooms and three and one-half baths in 3,178 square feet of air-coonditioned space.
Designed as an intimate community, Sapphire Cove’s 30-acre site will include only 75 single-family homes on generous lots measuring 57 feet wide by 140 feet deep. The community is bordered by a preserve and is centered around a 3-acre lake fringed with native grasses and vegetation.
The community clubhouse is the heart of Sapphire Cove activity. There neighbors gather to enjoy a rigorous workout in the state-of-the-art fitness center, challenging yoga or a refreshing swim in the resort-style pool.
To preview the community, visit the Sapphire Cove welcome center located at the clubhouse, located on Lord’s Way off Collier Boulevard. For a private showing, contact Jim Borden at 239.451.8153, email [email protected]. For more information, visit the Sapphire Cove website, SapphireCoveNaples.com.
The Sapphire Cove property is part of the Hacienda Lakes Community Development District and is accessed via the Lord’s Way approximately half a mile east of Collier Boulevard.
