London Bay Homes’ extraordinary waterfront Port Royal estate elevates luxury living
London Bay Homes, Southwest Florida’s premier homebuilder, has completed a stunning waterfront showcase estate at 3233 Gin Lane in Port Royal that boasts customized features, exquisite interior design and elegant finishes reflecting the wants and desires of today’s homebuyers. Offering direct boating access to the Gulf from its 107 feet of frontage along Hidden Bay, the nearly 7,700-square-foot residence represents London Bay Homes’ integrated and collaborative approach to homebuilding with industry leading partners, including Kukk Architecture & Design and Romanza Interior Design.
Currently furnished with four bedrooms and two studies, the residence provides the flexibility to effortlessly offer five bedrooms. Additional features include five full baths, a pool bath and powder room showcasing a custom Poliform kitchen and boutique closets, a bar and wine center, and an exercise studio.
“When designing our estate homes, the team, myself included, considers the future homeowners’ lifestyle and what it takes to create a home tailored to the way they want to live,” said Mark Wilson, president and CEO of London Bay Homes, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary. “We carefully consider every scenario and every last detail, starting with how the home is positioned on the homesite for optimal exposure to the tactile experience of finishes, the appeal of furnishings, the connections between indoor and outdoor spaces, and an overall sense of how the home feels.”
Close to Third Street South and Fifth Avenue South, the two-story Gin Lane estate is also minutes from the exclusive Port Royal Club. The home features exciting contemporary architecture and an open-concept floor plan highlighting sweeping water views. Pocketing Weiland LiftSlide doors seamlessly extend the spacious great room, kitchen and dining room to covered and open-air alfresco living areas with uninterrupted flooring that flows effortlessly from indoors to out.
The wrap-around covered lanai offers a large outdoor kitchen with two under-counter refrigerators, a sink and a built-in grill. Water elevates the relaxing ambiance of outdoor spaces as it cascades from the raised spa flanked by water bowls to the L-shaped pool’s sun shelf which is traversed by steppingstones connecting a sundeck to a secluded lounge with a fire table and tropical palms. The estate also has a spa deck with a pair of comfortable lounge chairs and a quiet retreat off of the master bedroom showcasing a water feature and lush landscaping.
Interior design, furnishings, finishes and custom selections by Romanza Interior Design create a soft contemporary palette that includes 24-by-24 honed champagne limestone floors in main living areas and pewter white oak wood flooring in the master suite and throughout the second floor.
Imagined for entertaining and everyday lifestyles, main gathering areas incorporate a bar and additional gathering table with seating, plus expansive refrigerated wine storage within the staircase vestibule’s 18.5-foot ceiling. Sleek Poliform cabinetry adds a tailored contemporary flair to the kitchen, which has a freestanding island with two dishwashers, a Galley workstation sink and a built-in table for casual in-room dining. The well-appointed kitchen also offers double wall ovens, a steam oven and an open butler’s pantry with a coffee bar.
Located in a quiet wing overlooking the front yard, the first-floor study has a wet bar with a refrigerator. The nearby master suite offers two custom Poliform walk-in closets, a sun-filled bedroom with motorized blackout shades and two bathrooms connected by a shower with glass doors.
Illustrating London Bay Homes’ flexible designs, the second-floor study easily accommodates a fifth bedroom with its walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom offering a dual-sink vanity and glass shower. Ideal for overnight guests, the estate’s full second story offers a loft with a morning kitchen and sliding glass doors to a balcony enjoying bird’s eye views of the pool and Hidden Bay. There’s also an exercise room and a second laundry room. A VIP bedroom features a spacious walk-in closet and bathroom with a dual-sink vanity, freestanding tub and a glass-enclosed shower. Two additional ensuite guestrooms offer custom built-in wardrobes.
The estate at 3233 Gin Lane also offers an air-conditioned three-car garage, an elevator and a generator.
