The 16-story building at 6075 Pelican Bay Boulevard was completed in 1981 and holds 86 residences with two or three bedrooms and about 1,740 to 2,340 square feet. It sits south of Gulf Park Drive beside a tram stop, with Gulf views from the upper floors, and recent asking prices have run from about $775,000 to $2.35 million for a penthouse. In a building more than forty years old, many residences still carry dated bathrooms and closed kitchens. This page explains how those two rooms are remodeled inside Dorchester. ![Dorchester at Pelican Bay bathroom remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Pelican-Bathroom-Reno-4-after-c.webp)After · Pelican Bay bathroom remodel ## Dorchester Bathroom Remodel The typical Dorchester residence has two full baths and often a powder room, all laid out for the early 1980s. Original rooms commonly have small shower stalls, a tub in the second bath, low vanities and tile set over a thick mortar bed. Most owners keep the drain locations and rebuild everything else: a walk-in shower with a linear drain, a taller vanity with drawers, porcelain or stone walls and better ventilation. Replacing the tub in the guest bath with a shower is a common request. Heated floors and a niche set into the wall rather than a corner caddy are popular finishing touches. Owners also want brighter, warmer lighting than the original ceiling fixtures gave. A 1981 high-rise brings rules that a house does not. Concrete slabs limit where new drains can go, and any coring needs the association's approval and often an engineer's letter. Elevator bookings, work hours, debris removal and sound-rated underlayment under new hard flooring all have to be arranged before demolition. Florida's newer condominium safety laws also mean older towers are scheduling structural inspections and repairs, so we coordinate around any building projects already underway. Bathroom remodels at Dorchester start from $22,000 per bath. Price Your Dorchester *Bathroom.* Get a starting price for a modern Dorchester bathroom with the Pelican Bay bathroom builder.

Owners now remove or open that wall where the structure permits, creating a peninsula or island that faces the living room and the Gulf. Typical selections include flat-panel or shaker cabinetry to the ceiling, quartzite or quartz counters, an integrated refrigerator, an induction cooktop and a full-height backsplash. Because the building is older, many owners also replace the original electrical panel inside the unit and add dedicated circuits for the new appliances. Walls in an older tower can hide plumbing risers, electrical runs or structure, so we confirm what is inside before promising an open plan. The free LiDAR scan captures exact dimensions, and the photo-real 3D render shows you the opened kitchen with your chosen finishes before the association package is submitted. Cabinets and counters are templated to the scan so install days, and elevator time, stay short. Dorchester does not allow pets and limits leasing to one lease a year, so many residences are owner-occupied, and owners often plan their remodel for the months they spend away from Naples. We can run the project while you are gone and send progress photos throughout. Kitchen remodels at Dorchester start from $32,000. ![Dorchester at Pelican Bay kitchen remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/pelican-bay-kitchen-reno-after2-c.webp)After · Pelican Bay kitchen remodel Price Your Dorchester *Kitchen.* Picture your Dorchester kitchen opened to the Gulf view, then price it in the Pelican Bay kitchen builder.
