COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT

Bay Colony is an exclusive community within Pelican Bay for the most discerning of tastes. A gracious perimeter wall embraces the Bay Colony community; a meticulously manicured entry replete with stately palm trees and luxuriant floral plantings leads to a sentry gate. There are a mix of luxurious condominiums, villas and grand estates inside this gated 200-acre oasis. The community is set amidst protected mangroves and Gulf Shoreline. Bay Colony, a vision culminating in an unsurpassed upscale community, preserved and enhanced in perpetuity by the Bay Colony Community Association.

BAY COLONY SHORES: Bay Colony Shores offers 75 home sites ranging in size from one-third to one-half acre. Reached via a Mediterranean-style bridge, grand estate homes rim crystal lakes. Brick-paved streets are complemented by quaint street lights reminiscent of the charming gaslight era. Colonnades of royal palms tower above meticulous landscaping artistry around every home and throughout the entire neighborhood. Lifestyles in Bay Colony Shores are a happy blend of elegant and laid-back, amid the placid waterfront atmosphere afforded by lakes. Although "The Shores" was named to reflect the lovely lakes in this neighborhood, it could just as well refer to the Gulf, because families living in Bay Colony Shores also enjoy the beach that is an integral part of Bay Colony's location.

ESTATES AT BAY COLONY: The Estates at Bay Colony Golf Club is an exclusive estate enclave and is home to a world class golf course. It is designed for those who prefer a secluded, secure environment with unrivaled access to a wealth of world class amenities. 75 magnificent estates are artfully woven throughout 280 acres of natural preserve, through which meanders a fabulous, stunningly natural championship golf course. No other gated community in Southwest Florida is as consistent in concept, with only large single family estates. Although The Estates at Bay Colony Golf Club has an extraordinary golf course with a beautiful clubhouse and award winning dining, this upscale enclave is definitely not a golf course community in the traditional sense. Golf is only one of many amenities available to its residents. Tennis and Beach Club activities are also part of the lifestyle. No other community provides its residents such easy access to the best of Naples while providing such a secure, tranquil setting of stunning natural beauty.

The neighborhood reposes on a finger of land surrounded on all sides by the beauties of nature that is one of Southwest Florida's primary attractions.
