The Ronto Group announced that just four residences featuring its Phase III Astoria floor plan remain available at Naples Square.

The Ronto Group announced that just four residences featuring its Phase III Astoria floor plan remain available at Naples Square, a new community being developed by Ronto at the corner of Fifth Avenue South and Goodlette-Frank Road in downtown Naples. The four remaining Astoria residences are base priced from $750,000 to $800,000.

Sales activity continues at an unprecedented pace at Naples Square. Phase III sales transactions worth more than $60 million have been processed and the Phase III building is nearly 70 percent sold. Just 25 of the 77 residences in the Phase III building remain available. One of the three furnished models in the Phase III offering that are available for purchase with a leaseback has sold. Two of the Phase III floor plans, the Dorset and Emerson plans, are now sold out. The Phase III building is under construction and on schedule for completion in spring 2019. The Phase II building is completely sold out. Three previously sold Phase II furnished models remain open for viewing with a sales associate. 

Naples Square’s walkable lifestyle and the availability of one- and two-story, two- and three-bedroom plus den floor plans with open-concept living areas and open-air terraces continue to transform how people live downtown. The Phase III floor plans range from 1,460 to 3,238 square feet under air and are base priced from $750,000 to $1.645 million. The two- and three-bedroom plus den plans feature 10-foot ceilings, open-air terraces, and designer kitchens with an enhanced appliance package with a gas cooktop and hood and a wall mounted oven and microwave.

The Phase III floor plans, created by Ronto Group and MHK Architecture and Planning, include renamed and enhanced iterations of the plans featured in the community’s Phase I offering. Phase III residents will also enjoy a redesigned courtyard amenity deck with an enlarged pool deck and a 780-square-foot pool that is 29 percent larger than the pools in the Phase I and Phase II buildings. The new design raises the pool to a level that is flush with the other areas of the amenity deck. The redesign provides a larger area for poolside seating and outdoor dining tables. The new design also includes two tables under the pavilion that is adjacent to the pool. Just outside the pavilion, two gas grills with sinks and two seating areas with fire pits will enhance the outdoor cooking and socializing experience. A club room and a terrace will open to the pool area and include a bar, large screen television, a billiards room, and a furnished fire pit area on the courtyard level. Other amenities include a fitness center, secure under-building parking, private storage, and bicycle storage within the garage.

Fashioned after the Phase I Alton floor plan, the Phase III Astoria great room plan offers 1,460 square feet of living space, an increase of 15 percent when compared to the Phase I Alton. The Astoria plan also includes a 260-square-foot feet open-air balcony. The Phase III Astoria residences are east and west facing. With a great room, dining area, island kitchen, two bedrooms and two full baths, the Astoria plan offers an ideal downtown residence. Both the great room and the owner’s bedroom open to the balcony. The gourmet kitchen’s counter height bar and food preparation area includes a double stainless steel sink, dishwasher and seating. The plan’s open feeling continues with a dining area that merges with the great room’s seating area. The plan includes a walk-in closet in the owner’s bedroom, a separate water closet in the owner’s bath, and a separate laundry room.

To enhance the open feeling of the Phase III Astoria’s primary living spaces, Ronto and MHK pulled space from the elevator lobby to increase the width of the great room, balcony, and kitchen by three feet. The great room and balcony are now 17 feet wide and the kitchen is 15 feet wide. The additional width in the great room allowed Ronto to add a fourth panel of glass to the sliding glass doors leading to the balcony. The wider expanse of glass will enhance both the Astoria’s light-filled ambiance and its easterly or westerly views. Space was also added to the owner’s bedroom to provide a more generously sized walk-in closet.

The redesigned Phase III residences will present the luxurious finishes that are the hallmarks of Naples Square. Standard details include porcelain tile flooring in the living areas, kitchens and baths, 8-foot solid core interior doors, 8-foot exterior and sliding glass doors, contemporary, lever-style door hardware, 8-inch clean-lined baseboards, 7-inch crown molding per plan, ventilated wood shelving in the owner’s bedroom closets, linen and pantry closets, and separate laundry rooms with a Whirlpool Duet front load washer and dryer and a utility sink in most plans.

Phase III’s open kitchens will feature an enhanced appliance package with a gas cooktop and hood and a wall mounted oven and microwave. European frameless construction, full-overlay cabinetry with a variety of door profiles, finish selections and hardware, a stainless steel, under-mount sink with a pull-out spray faucet, and multiple granite and quartz countertop options that are three centimeters thick are included. The master bath features marble-topped vanities with dual sinks, large showers with bench seats and glass enclosures, soaking tubs with most floor plans, and a separate water closet room. 

The landscaped streetscapes, amenity courtyards, and fountain features at Naples Square were designed by Christian Andrea of Architectural Land Design Inc. and have enhanced the look and feel of the Naples downtown district. The design evokes feelings of familiarity and a sense of place by merging pavered roadways, water features, and fountain roundabouts with washingtonia and Medjool date palm trees and a mix of plantings. Oak trees create a canopy to provide shade and soften the building mass. The streetscapes are lined with palms interspersed with flower beds, strips of green, and landscaped areas separating the sidewalks and buildings.

Two downtown Naples sales centers represent Naples Square and Eleven Eleven Central. One is in Unit 101 of the Naples Square Phase I building at 1030 Third Ave. S. The other is at 100 Goodlette-Frank Road S. Both sales centers are open daily. Visit NaplesSquare.com or 1111Central.com.
