WCI SELLING COACH HOMES

VENICE — WCI Communities has introduced Sarasota National’s first collection of coach homes in the Banbury II neighborhood. The two-story buildings will offer six residences, each featuring two bedrooms, two baths and an open great-room plan.

Banbury II will have 11 buildings with 66 homes. The coach homes, with water and preserve views, are priced from $189,990 and offer 1,375 to 1,831 square feet of interior space, with upscale kitchens, breakfast cafés, screened lanais and single-car garages. Five of the plans also offer dens.

WCI is developing the 2,400-acre master-planned Sarasota National, which features an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Gordon Lewis and certified as an Audubon International Signature Sanctuary.

Each home offers a freestanding kitchen island/breakfast bar, full Whirlpool appliance package and a garbage disposal. Finishes include granite counter tops, recessed paneled cabinetry doors and integrated double-bowl sinks. Separate laundry rooms offer a washer and dryer.

The first-floor homes have coffered ceilings in owner’s bedrooms. Second-floor residences have window-lit stairwells. Interior finishes include designer ceramic tile in select rooms, solid-surface windowsills and decorative base moldings.

Each six-home building features low-e insulated impact-resistant windows and sliding-glass doors, brick paver driveways, concrete tile roofs, and decorative raised-panel garage doors with remote opener and keyless entry pad.

More than 1,300 of Sarasota National’s 2,400 acres are designated for conservation. The project is approved for 1,584 homes. Information: SarasotaNational.com.

WCI BUYS 150 LOTS AT ROSEDALE

WCI Communities also has purchased 150 home sites within Rosedale, a master-planned golf course community on S.R. 70 near Interstate 75 in Bradenton.

WCI purchased 93 homesites from Newton Developments Inc., the developer of Rosedale, and an additional 57 homesites from M/I Homes, all located within The Links at Rosedale.

The purchase price for the transactions was not disclosed. WCI will begin construction on new homes in August, including two furnished models: the Key Largo and the Martinique. Information: WCICommunities.com; 800-924-2290.
