Michael Scott of Romanza Interior Design has been selected to create the interiors of London Bay Homes’ new Benita model at Miromar Lakes.
Showcasing coastal-inspired furniture and tropical accents, the luxury single-family villa is located in Portofino, a waterfront neighborhood surrounded by 700 acres of contiguous freshwater lakes at Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club. The exclusive builder in Portofino, London Bay’s 20-home enclave is reminiscent of an Italian village with its cobblestone streets and plazas.
One of nine maintenance-free villas offered by London Bay, the 3,102-square-foot Benita has four bedrooms and four baths. Its open floor plan is introduced in the foyer, a space that sweeps into the adjoining dining room, great room and kitchen area.
The model is shown with a tech center in the owner’s entry, a three-car garage and a summer kitchen with grill, sink and refrigerator.
Scott has selected ivory-hued backgrounds for the Benita, including shell-stone flooring in main living areas and the master bath, finishes for bathroom and kitchen cabinetry and light travertine and quartz countertops. Clean-lined decorative fixtures will add a modern contrast to the coastal influences of light-toned and painted furniture and tropical colors in art, accents and bedding.
The model also features coffered ceilings with crown molding in several rooms and a buffet/art niche in the dining room.
A wall of sliding glass doors in the great room showcase the pool and extend interior living spaces into an alfresco area with sitting and dining groups and a pool deck finished with ivory stone concrete pavers installed in a basketweave pattern.
The kitchen offers a walk-in pantry, a freestanding island breakfast bar with seating for four, decorative glass doors on upper cabinetry and a wine refrigerator. Sliding doors from its café also access outdoor living.
The Benita’s master suite offers his-and-her walk-in closets and its bathroom has a large walk-in shower, a soaking tub and vanity with double sinks.
The tech center in the owner’s entry features custom cabinetry with a desk positioned under a window. The nearby utility room has a front-loading washer and dryer.
Each of the Benita’s guest rooms has a private full bathroom.
The model will have 4,554 total square feet including covered entry, outdoor area and the three-car garage.
Its architecture will boast Spanish influences with clean white stucco paired with terracotta barrel roof tile. The model’s custom double iron and glass entry doors have a modern design aesthetic.
The partially furnished Benita model is currently under construction and scheduled for completion in June 2015.
