Mediterra is a 1,697-acre gated country club community in North Naples, two miles north of Immokalee Road along Livingston. Developer London Bay Homes — founded in 1990 by Mark and Gemma Wilson — launched Mediterra at the turn of the 2000s with a specific architectural mandate: import the grace, charm, and intimacy of the classic Mediterranean style to Southwest Florida. Over 1,000 of its 1,697 acres are preserved as open space, parks, and nature preserves.

Fewer than 950 residences are planned across 31 distinct neighborhoods — luxury estates, single-family villas, maintenance-free villas, and coach-style condominiums. Mediterra has been named Collier Building Industry Association Community of the Year 11 times in 15 years. The community centers on two Tom Fazio-designed 18-hole courses, a 60,000 sqft clubhouse, a private Beach Club on Bonita Beach (fully renovated 2024), and a $38M Sports & Lifestyle Center now under construction. Golf membership is capped at 450 and carries a 5+ year waitlist.

The kitchen story inside individual Mediterra homes tracks a clear architectural transition. Early Mediterra homes from 2001–2008 were built in the full-bore Mediterranean vocabulary — arched pass-throughs, heavy corbels, dark cabinetry, wrought-iron hardware, travertine floors, and beam-laden ceilings. Today’s Mediterra buyers strongly favor transitional and modern aesthetics, with many residents actively updating to match. That style transition is the single defining scope driver for Mediterra kitchen remodels in 2026: translating Mediterranean bones into transitional spaces that match buyer expectations without erasing the community’s architectural character.
