ESTERO, FL---While the month of March celebrates the start of Spring and college basketball’s March Madness tournament, the gated lakeside community of Copper Oaks is celebrating its own March Madness by offering luxurious “ready-to-move-in” townvillas from $199,900, plus thousands of dollars in additional incentives.
     
“We’ve got the right homes at the right price right now, plus up to $8,000 in additional incentives for hombuyers who purchase a home in March,” said Nanette Plescia, corporate vice president of sales and operations for SH Communities, the award-winning developer of Copper Oaks. 

An added incentive is an $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers which is good on purchases made before December 1, 2009.

Located just north of Naples and only minutes from the Gulf Coast’s beautiful white sand beaches, Copper Oaks townvillas feature a host of leisure-time amenities including a multi-purpose clubhouse, fitness center, two pools with brick paver sundecks, cabana baths, tot lot, playground, 2-acre park, and a basketball court.

Four 2-story townvilla plans are available and range from the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Aster with 1,525 sq. ft. of air-conditioned living area (1,864 sq. ft. under roof), to the 4-bedroom, 3-bath Calla Lily that has 1,997 sq. ft. of air-conditioned living space (2,310 sq. ft. under roof). 

The Mediterranean-style townvillas feature distinctive architectural elements such as bay windowed towers, graceful archways, decorative shutters, rich color tones, concrete barrel tile roofs, and come with brick paver driveways, covered rear lanais, and attached 1-car garages with private entries to residences.

Plans offer great rooms, family rooms, formal living and dining rooms, master suites with coffered ceilings and walk-in closets, and master baths with dual-sink vanities, Roman-style tubs, and glass-enclosed showers with ceramic tile surrounds.

Gourmet-style kitchens include breakfast bars or adjoining morning rooms, solid-surface countertops including granite, European-style wood cabinetry, and a full appliance package with refrigerator, microwave, ceramic-top range, and dishwasher.

Many of the floor plans offer “flex-space” rooms that can be converted into a nursery, media room, or even a junior master suite with sitting area.

A low Home Owners Association fee of $154 per month includes use of all community amenities, gate security, basic cable TV, lawn care and landscape maintenance, and maintenance of common areas, lakes and preserves.

Copper Oaks is just three miles from the new Coconut Point Mall, Gulf Coast Town Center, and Miromar Outlet Mall; less than 10 minutes from a handful of area golf courses, local schools, Florida Gulf Coast University, and Southwest Florida International Airport; and just minutes from exit 123 (Corkscrew Road) at Interstate 75.   

Two furnished models are featured at the New Home Welcome Center which is located just off Three Oaks Parkway at 10101 Tin Maple Drive.
