More than 120 guests gathered in the Delfina, London Bay Homes’ luxury custom single-family model home at The Founders Club, Sarasota’s premier golf community. 

The celebration was a launch party hosted by Home & Design Magazine Suncoast. Guests enjoyed complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, and personalized tours of the 5,943-square-foot home. Designed as the ultimate entertainment home, the custom four-bedroom Delfina model offers formal living and dining rooms, a study, breakfast nook, four full baths, powder room within 4,329 square feet of living space. Additional features include a three-car garage and an outdoor living area with a verandah that wraps around the back of the home. The model also features a custom swimming pool, spa and outdoor kitchen.

London Bay Homes’ signature attention to detail and interior design by Romanza Interior Design combines to showcase the versatility and livability of the Delfina floor plan, available with a variety of options.

“The interior design of the Delfina matches the home itself – elegant and sophisticated, yet very comfortable,” said Mark Wilson, president and CEO of London Bay Homes.

Interior details include vaulted ceilings that boast layered trays, painted beams and detailed crown molding to complement the transitional design, blending clean-lined wood, stone, metal and glass furnishings. Main living areas feature walnut-hued tumbled travertine flooring set in an ashlar pattern; and grayed wood floors warm the study, game room and cabana. Neutral background colors provide a perfect canvas for soft whites and grays with dashes of citrus and blues.

 The open design of the Delfina visually connects visitors to outdoor areas from its foyer, where the view is directed across the gallery hall to the living room’s wall of sliding glass doors. Visitors get their first glimpse of the model’s pool and the lake, one of many throughout The Founder Club’s 700 acres, dedicated to golf, conservation areas and a natural Florida setting. 

The Delfina, like all single-family estate floor plans at The Founders Club, provides numerous options for total customization, each created by London Bay Homes to capture the individual homeowner’s personality and lifestyle.

Priced at $2,178,900, the Delfina is one of three single-family luxury model homes currently open for viewing at The Founders Club.
