Taylor Morrison Begins Construction on Three New Showcase Homes in Haddington at Country Club East in Lakewood Ranch

SARASOTA, FL, December 19, 2012 (Press-News.org) Taylor Morrison is pleased to report that due to the overwhelmingly positive response to their new Francesco in Haddington, the company is planning to build three showcase homes in the same Country Club East neighborhood. Construction on the new Lakewood Ranch homes will begin in December, and they will be available for move-in this spring.

One of the new showcase homes that will be built in Haddington is a repeat of the popular Francesco model. Notable for its charming Tuscan-inspired details, the Francesco has a pleasingly open space plan that is ideal for entertaining. With just over 2,800 square feet, the Francesco offers three bedrooms, three and a half baths, a den, a large kitchen overlooking the family room, and an optional outdoor living area with fireplace and curved bar.

The Bella design will also be built as a showcase home. Here, a rotunda-style foyer welcomes guests and directs them to a cozy den or a spacious open kitchen with direct access to a formal dining room and oversized great room. Also included are two guest bedrooms with private baths, and a master retreat with his-and-hers walk-in closets and luxurious bath for a total of approximately 2,885 square feet.

The third showcase home to be built at Haddington will be the Luca model, which offers over 2,500 square feet and has a distinctively angled front entrance that leads directly into the heart of this elegant home with its open kitchen and great room design. Also included in this design are two guest suites with baths, a powder room, den, dining room and a lovely master suite.
All of the showcase homes feature brick paver driveways, lush landscaping, two-car garages, large utility rooms, covered lanais and options for outdoor kitchen and other upgrades. All share Taylor Morrison's thoughtful designer touches, such as arched doorways and decorative niches, as well as the company's signature commitment to construction quality and craftsmanship.

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 and nearby shopping, restaurants and parks, as well as Sarasota's famous beaches and cultural venues.
