Taylor Morrison is pleased to unveil its newest model in Haddington at Country Club East in Lakewood Ranch.

SARASOTA, FL, October 26, 2012

Taylor Morrison is pleased to unveil its newest model in Haddington at Country Club East in Lakewood Ranch. Known as the Francesco, this charming Tuscan-inspired design is perfect for at-home entertaining with its open spaces, dream kitchen and optional outdoor living area with fabulous built-in bar and fireplace.

This newest model has been styled in a clean, traditional decor with dark woods and oil-rubbed bronze, and a sophisticated color story that includes coral, cream and pops of metallic accents. One of the two guest bedrooms has been decorated with a spa motif to make out-of-town visitors feel pampered and relaxed, while the other sports vintage Florida postcards.

The Francesco offers a spacious 2,802 square feet of living space approximately and includes three bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a two-car garage. The heart of this exceptional home is the chef-inspired kitchen with expansive counter space, a walk-in pantry, and a generously sized center island that easily does double duty as a prep area and breakfast bar. On either side of the kitchen are a spacious family room and large dining room, both sized to accommodate groups of guests. A nearby private den with double-door entry is the perfect getaway for a home office, hobby room or yoga studio.

The master suite is a true retreat, with an optional bay window overlooking backyard views of a pristine lake. His-and-hers closets line a short passage to the master bath, with its split double vanity, walk-in shower and garden tub.

The Francesco is filled with thoughtful touches, both practical and aesthetic, that make daily living a pleasure, such as decorative niches and arched doorways. An exceptional outdoor living area is perfect for parties or quiet evenings with ample space for an optional spa, outdoor kitchen with curved bar, or an outdoor fireplace and TV. The 12-foot ceilings in the main living areas are highlighted with architectural detailing, while large windows create a light and bright atmosphere. The roomy laundry room has its own walk-in closet, and an optional three-car garage allows even more storage space. Outside, the curb appeal of the home is enhanced by lush landscaping, a brick paver driveway, arched windows and a side entry garage design.

Haddington is one of the newest communities in Lakewood Ranch and includes 76 home sites, with homes ranging in size from 2,000 to 4,000 square feet. Many homes will be situated to enjoy the beautiful views offered by Lake Royal. Residents who appreciate nature will enjoy the many preserve areas in the neighborhood, including a kayak launch and island gazebo. As a part of Country Club East, residents will also enjoy access to18 holes of challenging Rick Robbins designed golf as well as an amenity-rich clubhouse and resort-style pool. Country Club East is enviably located in the heart of Lakewood Ranch, with easy access to the delights of Main Street as well as nearby shopping, restaurants and parks, as well as Sarasota's famous beaches and cultural venues.

The new Francesco model will be part of Taylor Morrison's collection for the 2012 Tour of Homes, which starts in late October and runs through mid-November. For more information about this model or Taylor Morrison in Country Club East, contact 941-799-5537 or visit taylormorrison.com.
