10 single-family homes sold in Bay Colony in 2025 at $7.28M average ($1,276/sqft, 5,767 sqft avg). Highest SF sale was $13M at Bay Colony Shores on a 2024 build. 39 condominiums sold in 2025 at $5.51M average ($1,521/sqft, 3,470 sqft avg) — highest condo sale $15.5M at Windsor at $2,547/sqft. Note: Bay Colony condos command the highest per-sqft prices in Pelican Bay because they’re the only direct-beachfront high-rises in the master community — kitchen renovation ROI on these units runs at the top of the Naples range.

Bay Colony Kitchen Remodel by Neighborhood

Bay Colony Kitchen Remodel By Neighborhood.

The Strand
The crown jewel — 12 custom beachfront single-family estates behind a second double-gated entry. Only gated beachfront single-family community in all of Naples. Custom Stofft Cooney-designed builds dominate new construction. Kitchen budgets routinely $1.5M+ with commissioned European millwork.
Bay Colony Shores
63–66 custom single-family estates on 1/3 to 1/2-acre lots, built 1990–2024. Homes 3,349–10,607 sqft. BCB Homes, Stofft Cooney, and custom builders. Mix of original 1990s construction (full-reconfig candidates) and recent new builds (refined upgrades).
Villa La Palma · Vizcaya
Two villa enclaves built 1991–1994, 22–58 units each, 2,671–4,675 sqft. Mediterranean hues, cobblestone streetscapes, authentic wrought-metal and rustic stucco details. Original kitchens now 30+ years old — Mediterranean-to-transitional updates are the norm here.
Biltmore · Brighton
Beachfront high-rise, built 1997. 22-story Biltmore with 75 units (2,860–7,550 sqft). Brighton with its coveted ’04” corner stack. Unit renovations require building management coordination for elevator padding, debris chute scheduling, and work-hour compliance (typically 8am–5pm weekdays).
Contessa · Remington
Contessa (1991) was the first beachfront high-rise in Bay Colony — 76 residences, 21 floors, private boardwalk. Remington (1996) is 22 floors, 75 units, 2,870–6,850 sqft penthouses. Oldest original kitchens in the community — most need full transitional rebuild.
Windsor
The final Gulf-front high-rise to be built. 31 floors, 106 units. Set the 2025 condo record at $15.5M ($2,547/sqft) for a 6,085-sqft 7th unit. Newer construction (1998) means kitchens are more adaptable; renovation ROI is strongest here.
Carlysle · Salerno · Cap Ferrat
Premium beachfront high-rise towers with additional Bay Colony Club coordination requirements. Beach-season restrictions (November–April peak) on demo and delivery scheduling. We plan Carlysle/Salerno/Cap Ferrat projects for April–October when possible.
Trieste · Marquesa
Additional Bay Colony high-rise towers with private-elevator penthouse layouts. Trieste penthouses frequently require full floor-plan reconfig — we’ve completed multiple 6,000+ sqft Trieste penthouse renovations with dual kitchens and fully automated Lutron/Crestron integration.
Estates at Bay Colony Golf Club
Gated enclave in Pelican Marsh with Bay Colony Golf Club access. Custom estate homes around the championship course. Recently renovated club reopened late 2024. Estate kitchens here typically trend toward Best-tier commissioned work to match the golf-estate lifestyle.

About Bay Colony Homes We Remodel

Every Bay Colony Kitchen Remodel
Starts Here.

Bay Colony is the most exclusive section inside Pelican Bay — a double-gated enclave with two stately guardhouses, 24-hour security, and membership in both the Pelican Bay master community and the residents-only Bay Colony Community Association. Residents access three private beach clubs (Bay Colony’s own plus Pelican Bay’s two), six hydro-clay tennis courts, a spa and fitness center, and the Bay Colony Golf Club in the gated Pelican Marsh enclave. The Beach Club was completely redesigned in 2018. The Golf Club completed a full renovation reopening in late 2024.

The community is organized into five onsite neighborhoods plus the Estates at Bay Colony Golf Club. On the single-family side: The Strand (12 beachfront estates), Bay Colony Shores (63–66 custom estates, 1990–2024), Villa La Palma and Vizcaya (attached villas built 1991–1994, Mediterranean architectural vocabulary). On the high-rise side: 11 distinct buildings — Biltmore, Brighton, Carlysle, Cap Ferrat, Contessa, Marquesa, Remington, Salerno, Trieste, Windsor — six of them directly on the Gulf beachfront, the only beachfront high-rises in all of Pelican Bay.

For kitchen remodels, Bay Colony breaks into three distinct scope categories. High-rise unit renovation (~75% of our Bay Colony work) requires coordinated building management, elevator-padding scheduling, debris-chute reservations, $2M+ contractor liability minimums, and work-hour compliance (typically 8am–5pm weekdays during occupied-season, expanded hours during April–October). Custom single-family estate remodel (Bay Colony Shores, The Strand) operates at Port Royal-equivalent budgets with commissioned European millwork and single-source stone. Villa remodels (Villa La Palma, Vizcaya) focus on translating the 1990s Mediterranean vocabulary into contemporary coastal transitional that matches current buyer preferences.

Bay Colony Kitchen Remodel FAQs

Bay Colony Kitchen Remodel
FAQs.

Do I need Bay Colony Community Association approval to remodel my kitchen?
For interior-only work in single-family homes (The Strand, Bay Colony Shores), interior remodels typically don’t require BCCA approval — you file through City of Naples / Collier County. For condo units in all 11 high-rise buildings, each building’s own association has a formal interior renovation approval process: architectural/structural drawings, $2M+ certificate of insurance, contractor registration, elevator reservation schedule, debris disposal plan, and typically 4–8 weeks for board review. We handle every stage.
My condo is in Contessa, original 1991. Full remodel or cabinet-only swap?
For a 1991 Contessa unit, full remodel almost always wins. Original layouts were sized for 36-inch Sub-Zero side-by-sides, 30-inch ovens, and formal-dining floor plans that 2026 Bay Colony buyers actively avoid. A full reconfig with opened sight-lines to Gulf views, 11ft ceilings where HOA permits, and modern pro-appliance spec returns 72–80% against Bay Colony condo comps. Cabinet-only swaps in Contessa typically hit 55–62% ROI because the dated bones remain visible.
What’s the right budget if I’m planning to sell in 3 years?
For Bay Colony condos at a 3-year horizon: Better tier around $900K is the sweet spot — Gulf-view units are trading at $1,521/sqft 2025 average. For Bay Colony Shores custom estates, Better tier $900K–$1.2M fits most 5,000–8,000 sqft homes planning sale within 5 years. The Strand beachfront should not go below $1.5M — the comp set is $15M+ and the neighborhood sets a bar you can’t safely underspend against.
Can I remove a wall in my high-rise condo?
Only non-load-bearing walls. Bay Colony high-rise buildings (Biltmore, Brighton, Windsor, Remington, etc.) have core structural walls plus identifiable non-structural partitions. Removal requires: structural engineer drawings stamped for Florida, building engineer sign-off, association board approval, and post-renovation inspection. Budget 4–8 weeks for the approval sequence and plan for acoustic treatment of any opened spaces to meet floor-to-floor sound transmission codes.
How long does a Bay Colony kitchen remodel take from contract to walkthrough?
High-rise condo Better-tier projects: 20–28 weeks including building approvals and elevator scheduling. Best-tier penthouse projects with commissioned European millwork: 28–40 weeks. Single-family Strand or Bay Colony Shores Better-tier: 22–30 weeks. Best-tier Strand estates with bespoke commissioned work: 34–48 weeks. European millwork alone runs 16–24 weeks fabrication and shipping.
What are the seasonal restrictions for Bay Colony renovations?
Most Bay Colony high-rise buildings have peak-season restrictions on demo work and heavy deliveries from approximately December through April. Work hours are typically limited to 8am–5pm weekdays with no weekend demo. Elevator padding must be scheduled 2–3 weeks in advance. Debris chute access is rotation-based. We schedule major demo and delivery phases for May–October where possible and compress finishing work into peak season.
Will a kitchen remodel trigger a property tax reassessment?
Florida’s Save Our Homes cap protects homesteaded primary residences from taxable-value increases above 3% per year. An investment or second-home Bay Colony property may see a taxable-value adjustment at the next Collier County Property Appraiser cycle, particularly given Bay Colony’s high absolute values. A $1M+ interior renovation can meaningfully shift assessed value. Confirm with your CPA during planning.
Is InvisaCook allowed in Bay Colony condos?
Yes across all 11 Bay Colony buildings we’ve worked in. InvisaCook is a recessed induction cooktop hidden beneath stone — no exterior venting change, no gas-line modification, no HOA-triggering appliance exposure. Ideal for high-rise kitchens where gas access is complicated or impossible. We’re Southwest Florida’s exclusive authorized dealer with dozens installed across Bay Colony beachfront and bay-view towers.
