About The Enclave of Distinction
The Enclave of Distinction is an intimate gated community of just 27 luxury single-family homes set on nearly 18 acres in North Naples. Located off Livingston Road between Mediterra and Talis Park, the neighborhood is designed around privacy, generous residential space and a low-density setting rather than an extensive resort-style amenity package. Two lakes, preserve areas, open green space and landscaped buffers surround the community, while brick-paved streets and sidewalks create an attractive and cohesive residential environment.
Homes are substantial one- and two-story residences designed by Stofft Cooney Architects, with living areas generally ranging from approximately 3,200 to more than 5,000 square feet. Three-, four- and five-bedroom configurations provide generous living and entertaining spaces, while three-car garages, private swimming pools, high ceilings and expansive outdoor living areas are characteristic of the residences. Lake, preserve and landscaped views create different settings throughout the neighborhood, and individual homes may vary in layout, finishes, upgrades and outdoor features.
What distinguishes The Enclave of Distinction is its deliberately small scale. Rather than supporting a large clubhouse, golf course or recreational complex, the community focuses on spacious private homes and a quiet neighborhood environment. A private park provides a shared gathering space, while the community’s location offers convenient access to North Naples shopping, dining, beaches, parks and I-75.

The Enclave of Distinction Amenities
The Enclave of Distinction intentionally takes a different approach to amenities than many luxury Naples communities. Rather than maintaining a large clubhouse or recreational complex, the neighborhood emphasizes private residential amenities, landscaped open space and a low-density environment.
A private landscaped park provides a gathering area for residents, while two lakes, preserve areas, green space and landscaped perimeter buffers contribute to the community’s natural surroundings. Brick-paved streets, sidewalks and gated access complete the neighborhood environment.
Recreation is primarily centered around the individual residences, with private swimming pools and generous outdoor living areas designed into the homes. There is no community swimming pool, golf course, fitness center or racquet-sports complex. For buyers who prefer to enjoy those amenities privately at home rather than support a large shared facility, that simplicity can be one of the community’s greatest advantages.
