Searching for a new home requires not only finding the right floor plan, but also finding the right luxury home community that incorporates amenities fitting for your unique lifestyle.  What luxury amenities do you seek in your future home?

According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), there are a few amenities that are the most popular among many age groups.  Their study, Housing Preferences of the Baby Boomer Generation, gathered information from more than 4,300 prospective home buyers that fit into four categories: seniors (born before 1946), Baby Boomers (born between 1946 and 1964), Gen-Xers (born between 1965 to 1979), and Millennials (born after 1979).  Their study revealed that, regardless of age, there were three amenities that were the most coveted: A suburban community, close proximity to a park area, and access to walking/jogging trails.  Other amenities ranked by all four age groups were a swimming pool, a lake, and an exercise room.

A study done by real estate advising company, Robert Charles Lesser & Co., echoed some of the results in the NAHB study.  According to Lesser & Co., green space and paved trail systems for walking, running, and biking were the No. 1 and No. 2 community features most desired by prospective home buyers.  Other amenities that made the list include outdoor, resort-style pools, exercise rooms and equipment, and natural (unpaved) trail systems for hiking and walking.

Are you starting to see the pattern?  All of the elements of a healthy and active lifestyle are among the favorites in luxury amenities and Mediterra has them all, and a few more that will make you want to schedule your tour of our luxury home community.  Discover your favorite by reviewing our list of the most popular luxury amenities at Mediterra.

Residents at Mediterra are able to choose between two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses that are as beautiful as they are playable.  Each course was designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings, creating a rolling picture of lush beauty and tranquility while you’re enjoying a day out on the greens.  Members can also take advantage of the Golf Learning Center which offers the latest in technology and instruction to improve their skills before heading to the course.  Golf membership opportunities are limited to just 225 members per 18 holes to ensure tee time availability for members.  Although the waiting time for a golf membership is currently one year when you buy an existing Mediterra home, London Bay Homes has reserved a number of memberships for prospective homeowners that purchase a new home in our Naples luxury community.
