Marquesa at Bay Colony Naples Florida Update!

By
Real Estate Agent with John R. Wood Properties

The Marquesa at Bay Colony is the ONLY high-rise in Bay Colony that doesn't have a manned security guard in the lobby which is a SUPER option for those who demand privacy and want to be in control of who they allow in their unit.


Because it is a low-density building (only 15 floors and 39 units) there isn't much that goes on here.  Last year there was only 1 sale, just like the year before and currently, there are 4 on the market.  Of course, that looks like a 4-year inventory on paper...well...because there is a four-year inventory...I suppose.  The average market time here is 230 days...that's not good but it is a good example of how some people will hold forever to get their price. 

So what's wrong with Marquesa....since I know so many of you are asking me that question as you read this post.  There's nothing wrong with Marquesa. Besides being a little further from the beach and not offering all the amenities as perhaps Toscana at Bay Colony or Salerno at Bay Colony, we have some owners who haven't been as fast to respond to lower pricing.  There have been and still are units in both Toscana and Salerno that are either similar in pricing or even priced below those units in Marquesa plus more amenities plus lower fees plus closer to the beach...there's also more bedrooms in many of the floor plans...ok kinda hard to compete based off all that. 

What is nice about the Marquesa is that you don't have a high-rise neighbor directly to the left of you which is a nice privacy perk and your Clam Pass views are fabulous even though you can't see the Gulf all that well.  Of course the higher you go the easier it gets but the Gulf view is never going to be as prevalent from Marquesa as say it will be from one of her sister buildings located right on the sand just a little bit down the road and for a few dollars more.
