BAYFRONT IN OLD NAPLES - URBAN CHIC WITH MEDITERRANEAN FLAIR
Posted On 2006-08-15 , 3:44 PM
“ A man who has not been in Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority, from his not having seen what it is expected a man should see. The grand object of traveling is to see the shores of the Mediterranean.”
- Samuel Johnson
You will experience the beauty and charm of living in Naples, Italy – or along the French Riviera – if you purchase a luxury condominium in the one of a kind Bayfront development in Naples, Florida. Developed by The Stoneburner Companies, this unique multi-use development blends high end retail shops, galleries and restaurants with luxury condominiums along the Naples Bay in Old Naples. This picturesque development is built on 12 acres along Naples Bay and the Gordon River, and includes a Marina,  where boat slips can be purchased. Bayfront is a stunningly authentic reproduction of an elegant European village, complete with dramatic Mediterranean style balconies, terraces, fountains, and outdoor cafes. The location is ideal. Residents can easily walk to the renowned Fifth Avenue shopping district. The landmark Naples Pier, and the award winning beaches surrounding it, is only one mile away.
Bayfront is being developed in essentially two phases. Phase one, which began in 2000, has been completed, and includes more than 150 luxury condominiums built above the upscale shops, galleries and restaurants occupying the  ground floors. Phase two, which awaits construction, will consist of 11 villa-style luxury condominiums, each of which will contain 2 or 3 bedrooms. These residences in phase two will be built over retail and office space on the ground floors. Bayfront offers residences that fit multiple lifestyles -- from 3 bedroom units with 3 bathrooms (and more than 2,500 square feet in living area), to “studio” sized one bedroom condos (with approximately 850 square feet of living space). Prices currently range from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 (or more) for the three bedroom residences, and $650,000 to more than $1,000,000 for those containing two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The one bedroom condominiums currently are priced from $450,000 and up.
Bayfront is very special – not only because of its location and spectacular architectural details, but in the refined urban lifestyles it offers. From spectacular balconies and terraces, residents see the lavishly appointed “village”, including fountains and a marvelous brick paved streetscape. Adding to the ambience and sophistication of the setting is “Gallery Row” at Bayfront. Five art galleries are presently on site, including the Weatherburn Gallery, Galerie Azur, Arte Direct, Murano of Naples, and the Gallery on Fifth. Bayfront is also the home of exceptional restaurants. Roy Yamaguchi’s internationally famous “Roy’s” is located in Bayfront, serving elegantly prepared “Hawaiian fusion” cuisine, such as Roasted Macadamia Nut Mahi Mahi served with a lobster butter sauce. Il Bellagio serves delicious upscale Italian fare, all in a lively atmosphere of casual elegance. Other restaurants include Stoney’s Steakhouse, Lisbon Nights, and Catch 22.
A chic and just plain fun place for the residents of Bayfront (as well as other Neopolitans) to meet is Shane’s Cabana Bar, which is actually built out over the water on Naples Bay. This full bar – which can be accessed “by land or sea” – is a popular choice to soak in the atmosphere, watch yachts drift by, or catch up with old friends. Specialties include a wide variety of Martinis. Don’t let the heat of summer scare you away, as misting fans keep patrons cool even on the hottest of days. The Cabana Bar overlooks the Marina in peaceful Naples Bay. There are over 40 boat slips which owners in Bayfront can purchase or lease. The slips can accommodate vessels of up to approximately 40 feet in length. Electricity and water hookups are available. With a properly selected residence, you could watch your yacht bobbing on the aqua-green waters of the Bay, all from the comfort of your private balcony or terrace. Access to the Gulf of Mexico is easy from this Marina. Live the boating lifestyle in Bayfront.
