Emerald Homes Florencia Wins 2015 Parade of Homes
The new Florencia Model by Emerald Homes at The Forest dominated its category in the 2015 Manatee and Sarasota BIA Parade of Homes taking the top award plus several others.
The 2015 Parade is one of the biggest in years locally, and around the state, with 93 homes entered across the two county region. The Florencia had a near sweep of category 20 for Single Family Homes with the judges awarding Emerald Homes:
- BEST OVERALL
- BEST KITCHEN
- BEST CURB APPEAL
- BEST FLOOR PLAN
- BEST MASTER SUITE
Competition in this category of $Million+ homes included an impressive list of builders with custom homes in premier communities. The region is known for having some of the best luxury homes in the nation and the annual Parade is always a showcase for the latest trends in new home design and innovation. This is an impressive win for the Florencia and makes a strong statement for the entire line up of homes Emerald is now introducing in The Forest.
The Florencia is a two-story home with approximately 4,374 square feet. It has four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a four-car garage. The home is situated to take full advantage of the oak trees and lake view on home site 1 just inside the main gate at The Forest (see the video from Osolo’s Starry Night Preview Party in the Florencia.) It has an expansive master suite that includes a unique private office space and a sitting area overlooking the natural setting. The great room, kitchen, cafe and second suite view onto a large lanai and pool with the many old-growth oak trees that cover the home site beyond. The Florencia is priced at $1,600,000.
The Parade runs through today with the Florencia open for tours from noon until 5:30pm. Come see why the judges awarded this beautiful new home top honors and preview two other homes nearing completion by Emerald Homes (the Sortino and Tuscana) with a drive through the beautiful setting at The Forest. It’s a great line up of homes by Sarasota’s newest luxury builder in the area’s only gated master planned community exclusively for estate homes.
