Seagate Development Group has started infrastructure installation at Isola Bella, an exclusive 4.5-acre enclave of just 17 single-family waterfront home sites adjacent to the Talis Park community’s Grand Piazza that showcases the Great Lawn and the Vyne House clubhouse. Seagate announced its purchase of the Isola Bella parcel last month.  A purchase agreement and a reservation for home sites within the new neighborhood are currently being processed.

The Isola Bella home sites present  water and golf course views and can accommodate estate residences from 3,500 to more than 5,000 square feet.  Seagate anticipates beginning construction of two furnished models designed by Rich Guzman at RG Designs in first quarter 2019. Preliminary floor plans for both models have been completed. The models will feature interiors designed by Theory Design’s Vice President of Design Ruta Menaghlazi, an interior designer who has been named recipient of numerous Sand Dollar Awards from the Collier Building Industry Association as well the Aurora Award on multiple occasions. Pricing for both models will be announced when construction begins.

The two-story Sonoma model will feature 3,983 square feet of air-conditioned living space as well as a large outdoor living area with covered conversation and dining areas, a fireplace, an outdoor kitchen, a pool bath, and a spacious deck surrounding a custom pool and spa.  The first floor of the open-concept design will include an impressive entry sequence and an elegant foyer, a great room and dining area that open to the outdoor living area, an island kitchen with a huge walk-in pantry, a powder bath, and a VIP guest suite. A wine room and bar will be located in the great room. An elevator will lead to the second floor that will feature a huge master suite with two walk-in closets, a sitting area that opens to a covered deck, and a bath with separate vanities, a free-standing tub, and a walk-in shower. Two guest suites, one of which opens to the deck, a loft with a morning bar, and a private study or exercise area are also included on the second floor.  The Sonoma plan also features a three-car garage.

The preliminary design of the two-story, 4,328 square foot under air Monterey model includes a wide foyer that leads to a sitting area, a wine room, a powder bath, a VIP guest suite, and an elevator.  Beyond the sitting area, the plan’s primary living space features a flowing great room, a dining area with a wet bar and built-in cabinetry, and an island kitchen with a walk-in pantry.  The great room and dining area open to a massive outdoor living area with a fireplace, an outdoor kitchen with an L-shaped bar, covered conversation and dining areas, a pool bath, and a huge multi-level deck with a spill-over pool and spa. Upstairs, the master suite and a loft open to a party sundeck.  A powder bath is included in the loft.  The master suite features two large walk-in closets and a bath with separate water closets, separate vanities, a freestanding tub, and a walk-in shower.  Two guest suites with private baths and a second laundry room are also included upstairs. The Monterey plan also features a three-car garage.

With its views and prime location immediately adjacent to the community’s amenity core, Isola Bella will be one of Talis Park’s most exclusive neighborhoods.  The name Isola Bella, Italian for Beautiful Island, pays tribute to the sheer beauty of the setting.  Community developer Kitson & Partners has created an award-winning lifestyle at Talis Park.

Isola Bella residents will enjoy Talis Park’s comprehensive array of amenities. Vyne House is the focal point of life at Talis Park.  Its centerpiece, Vyne Court, serves as a  point of entry and social space.  The upper level of the clubhouse features formal and casual indoor dining and al fresco dining, a market café, multiple covered terraces overlooking Talis Park’s scintillating tableau, a multi-purpose room, fitness studios, a wine room, board room and a spa.  A resort-style pool with a spacious deck and poolside cabanas invites residents to relax and enjoy the sunshine. An outdoor rotunda with a two-sided fireplace overlooks the 18th green. The lower level of the clubhouse hosts the golf pro shop and men’s and ladies’ locker rooms.

Talis Park’s golf course is one of just two Greg Norman/Pete Dye designed courses in the world.  The 133-acre layout features meticulously manicured Sea Dwarf Paspalum turf tees, fairways, roughs, and greens mowed at varying heights. The course measures 7,025 yards from the championship tees. A picturesque landscape allows for uphill and downhill hills while providing a setting similar to the valleys of Tuscany, Italy.

At the south end of the community, Talis Park’s Casa Cortese features a sports pub-style atmosphere adjacent to the community’s  driving range. Casa Cortese includes indoor and outdoor lounge areas with casual dining, a golf simulator that is available for individual practice sessions or private lessons with the golf staff, darts, billiards, shuffleboard, and multiple televisions.

Nearby, the Talis Park Sports Complex offers six lighted Har-Tru tennis courts with pavilions, a tennis pro shop and clubhouse, four bocce ball courts, a lap pool with two lap lanes, a children’s playground, and social gathering areas. Tree-lined streetscapes provide an ideal setting for walking, jogging, and biking, while nature trails offer opportunities to connect with nature.

Talis Park’s newest amenity is the Beach Runner, the community’s exclusive beach shuttle that whisks members away to Vanderbilt Beach on the Gulf of Mexico. The Beach Runner shuttle is stationed at the Vyne House clubhouse adjacent to the Great Lawn.

In addition to Isola Bella, Seagate Development Group is a Preferred Builder of grand estate residences at Quail West and Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club.  Five Seagate grand estate furnished models and end-user residences are under construction or poised to begin construction at Quail West.  Seagate’s furnished Sabbia model in Miromar Lakes’ Sardinia neighborhood continues to progress on schedule for completion in late January.  Seagate’s furnished Captiva model under construction at Hill Tide Estates is on schedule for completion in early 2019.  Hill Tide Estates is a 9.98-acre gated enclave being developed by Seagate on the southern tip of Boca Grande.  Hill Tide Estates is the only site on Boca Grande that overlooks Boca Grande Pass.  Two completed furnished models, two models under construction, and nine buildable home sites are available at Seagate’s Windward Isle community on Airport-Pulling Road just south of Orange Blossom Road in North Naples.
