Valencia's Beautifully Appointed Cordova is Luxurious Condominium Community's First Model Home

September 28, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Jacksonville Beach, Fla. – Valencia now has an advantage when it comes to showcasing their beautiful beachside community.

The Cordova, Valencia’s newest model home now available to tour, is also a resident favorite according to sales manager Nancy Wahlke.

“The Cordova has been a popular model because it’s so spacious and it, along with our other floor plans, offers the split floor plan. And, thanks to the placement of the bedroom suite, it almost feels like a second master bedroom,” she said.

The Cordova—featuring two bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms and offering 1,622-square-feet of living space—is one of four distinct and spacious floor plans from which to choose in Valencia’s third and final phase.

“We are stepping it up a notch in the third phase,” Wahlke said. “We are providing more upscale finishes that were very popular upgrades in the first two phases—which will now come standard in the third phase.”

Such appointments include solid wood doors, Mediterranean columns, GE stainless steel appliance package, bright eat-in kitchen with island and breakfast bar, 42-inch raised panel wood cabinets with European hinges, granite countertops with double stainless steel sinks, 34” high cultured marble vanities in master and second baths, spacious walk-in closets with solid shelving, 10-foot ceilings with double crown moulding and trey accents, tiled floors, elevators, underground covered parking and much more.

Additional interior features in the Cordova include a monitored alarm entry system, media center alcove in the living room, a built-in kitchen desk perfectly sized for a laptop computer, a large, double door storage closet and a spacious laundry room outfitted with a window, to name a few.

Wahlke admits that the new Cordova model home is an invaluable benefit for Valencia, it serves as a great way for people to visualize their belongings in the space.
“This is our opportunity to showcase how nicely furniture fits into all the rooms,” said Wahlke. “Often times, people see an empty space and think it may not work for them because of large furniture or other belongings, but by seeing things in their place and the various ways to arrange the home, it’s no longer an issue.”
The Cordova model home is a product of the same designer—Lance Jackson of Nelson Interiors—behind the state-of-the-art Clubhouse’s interior.
Meanwhile, sales are well underway for the third phase of these much-anticipated luxury homes. Opening prices begin in the $375s. Phases one and two are sold out.
Other available floor plans include one-, two- and three-bedroom homes ranging in size from 1,350- to 1,868-square-feet and featuring elegant master bedrooms and bathrooms, modern kitchens and open living spaces.
Two penthouses, which are new additions to the final phase, will be larger at 2,000- and 2,500-square-feet and carry a higher price tag.
