Westchester Condos at Kensington in Naples Florida

Westchester is an intimate low-rise coach-home condominium neighborhood within Kensington Golf & Country Club in Naples, Florida. Only 36 residences are arranged in small four-home buildings along Westchester Court, creating a private residential scale with substantially more interior space than many conventional Naples condominiums.

Westchester residences generally fall into two principal living-area ranges of approximately 2,160 square feet and approximately 2,643 to 2,686 square feet. First- and second-floor configurations, attached two-car garages, large screened lanais, selected private elevators and golf, lake, preserve or landscaped views create meaningful differences between individual properties.

Westchester Condos at a Glance

Only 36 Residences A small coach-home neighborhood with four residences in each low-rise building.

Two Main Size Ranges Approximately 2,160 square feet and larger residences around 2,643 to 2,686 square feet.

Two-Car Garages Attached two-car garages provide enclosed parking plus useful storage for full-time or seasonal ownership.

Private Recreation Westchester maintains its own neighborhood pool, spa and gathering area.

A Low-Density 36-Residence Neighborhood

Westchester's small size is one of its strongest real-estate distinctions. With only 36 residences, the neighborhood has substantially fewer owners than a large condominium community and retains a quieter coach-home character.

Limited inventory also means buyers may encounter periods with few or no Westchester listings. When a property becomes available, the correct analysis should focus on the closest Westchester floor plan, floor level and view before expanding the comparison to another Kensington condominium neighborhood.

Four Residences Per Building

Westchester buildings contain only four coach-home residences. Private entries, attached garages and the absence of long interior condominium corridors contribute to the neighborhood's residential character.

Building position can still matter. End residences may provide additional windows, natural light and exterior exposure, while upper homes can offer a different perspective across the golf course, lake, preserve or mature landscaping.

Westchester Court

Westchester Court forms the neighborhood's internal residential street. Mature landscaping surrounds the coach-home buildings, and individual locations can differ in their proximity to recreation, privacy and permanent rear view.

The exact building and residence position should therefore be included in valuation rather than treating every Westchester Court address as interchangeable.

Two Principal Floor-Plan Sizes

Westchester's market is centered around two principal living-area categories. Smaller coach homes provide approximately 2,160 square feet, while the larger layouts generally fall around 2,643 to 2,686 square feet.

The difference exceeds 500 square feet, enough to create noticeably different bedroom arrangements, guest accommodations, office flexibility and living-space proportions.

Westchester valuation sequence: floor-plan size → first- or second-floor position → end/interior residence → private elevator where applicable → golf/lake/preserve/landscaped view → rear exposure → garage → lanai → renovation → HVAC and water heater → storm protection → association finances → closest Westchester comparable sales.

Approximately 2,160-Square-Foot Residences

The approximately 2,160-square-foot floor plan provides substantial condominium living without the scale of Westchester's largest coach homes. Two-bedroom-plus-den and other flexible configurations are represented within this size category.

For many buyers, this plan offers a balance between usable interior space and lower-maintenance condominium ownership while retaining a large lanai and attached two-car garage.

Approximately 2,643–2,686-Square-Foot Residences

Westchester's larger coach homes can approach 2,700 square feet of air-conditioned living area. Three-bedroom and larger arrangements are represented, with space for guest accommodations, home offices or flexible rooms.

These larger residences can appeal to buyers moving from detached homes who want to reduce exterior maintenance without making a dramatic reduction in interior living area.

First-Floor Westchester Condos

First-floor residences provide direct single-level living between the garage, kitchen, bedrooms, main living spaces and screened lanai.

That accessibility can be important for long-term ownership and for buyers who prefer to avoid stairs or elevator dependence.

Ground-floor view quality still varies considerably according to building location, landscaping and the relationship between the lanai and adjacent water or golf scenery.

Second-Floor Coach Homes

Upper Westchester residences can provide greater separation from ground-level activity, more elevated views, volume ceilings and a different sense of interior scale.

The larger upper-floor layouts can be especially attractive to buyers seeking condominium convenience without sacrificing the proportions of a conventional home.

Private Elevators

Private elevators are represented in selected second-floor Westchester residences, but they are not universal throughout the neighborhood.

When present, buyers should review installation, operation, maintenance history, inspection requirements, emergency features and any residence-specific service obligations.

Do not assume elevator access: verify the exact Westchester residence. An elevator advertised in another upper-floor home does not establish that every second-floor residence has one.

Attached Two-Car Garages

Attached two-car garages are one of Westchester's strongest practical advantages. They provide direct enclosed parking and can accommodate additional household, beach, bicycle and golf equipment.

Actual storage configuration varies. Cabinets, work areas, shelving and owner-installed systems should be inspected individually, as should garage-door condition and storm protection.

Large Screened Lanais

Westchester's large screened lanais create substantial outdoor living areas without requiring individual pool ownership. Depending on the residence, the lanai may overlook golf, water, preserve vegetation or mature community landscaping.

Buyers should compare usable lanai depth, orientation, privacy, flooring, screening and storm protection rather than focusing solely on interior square footage.

Golf-Course Views

Golf-oriented Westchester properties can overlook fairways or other parts of the Kensington course environment. The quality of the golf view depends on actual building position, vegetation, sightline and relationship to active play.

Fairway width, cart paths, golfer activity and landscape screening should be considered alongside the view from the living room, primary suite and lanai.

Lake & Golf Views

Selected residences combine water in the foreground with golf scenery beyond. This layered setting can increase visual depth while creating additional separation from active play.

Water width, shoreline orientation and the position of the golf landscape beyond the lake should be evaluated property by property.

Preserve Views

Preserve-oriented residences provide a different ownership experience from golf-front properties. Mature natural vegetation can create greater privacy and a quieter backdrop for the screened lanai.

Buyers should verify preserve boundaries and recognize that vegetation can change naturally over time.

Landscaped Views

Other Westchester residences face established tropical landscaping rather than open golf or water. Mature plantings can provide an attractive residential setting and additional privacy.

Landscape maintenance responsibility and any planned community changes should be confirmed through current association information.

Westchester Neighborhood Pool

Westchester maintains its own neighborhood swimming pool, allowing residents to enjoy convenient pool access without personally maintaining an individual residential pool.

This can be particularly attractive for seasonal owners who want water recreation while avoiding responsibility for private pool equipment, heaters, pumps and screen enclosures.

Community Spa & Gathering Area

The neighborhood recreation area also includes a spa and gathering space. These shared facilities add a localized social component within Westchester separate from private Kensington Golf & Country Club membership.

Pool, spa and common-area maintenance should be included when reviewing association budgets and reserve planning.

Construction Era

Westchester residences were developed primarily around 2000 and 2001. The concentrated construction period produces architectural consistency while also making building maintenance and major-system replacement increasingly relevant in today's resale market.

Roof history, exterior work, storm protection, mechanical systems and association capital planning should be reviewed alongside interior condition.

Renovated Westchester Condos

Interior condition ranges from residences retaining much of their original design to substantially renovated homes with updated kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, lighting and appliances.

Renovation quality should be considered separately from major capital components. A newly remodeled kitchen does not eliminate the need to evaluate HVAC, water heating, storm protection, plumbing or association-maintained building systems.

Kitchen & Bathroom Improvements

Updated kitchens can materially improve the way Westchester's large floor plans function, particularly when cabinetry, counters, appliances, lighting and the relationship between kitchen and living spaces have been modernized.

Bathroom improvements can also differentiate otherwise similar residences. Buyers should review workmanship and permitting where major plumbing or structural changes have occurred.

HVAC & Major Systems

Air-conditioning and water-heater age should be documented for each residence. Electrical components, appliances, garage-door equipment and any leak-detection or smart-home systems should also be considered during inspection.

Seasonal owners may place additional value on remote thermostat, humidity and water-monitoring systems.

Storm Protection

Westchester storm protection varies by residence. Buyers may encounter impact-rated windows and doors, electric storm screens, shutters or combinations of protection systems.

Large screened-lanai openings deserve particular attention. Every opening should be verified individually rather than relying on a broad statement that a residence has hurricane protection.

Roof & Exterior Building Components

As a condominium neighborhood, Westchester has association responsibility for significant shared building and common components according to the governing documents.

Buyers should review the current association records for roof history, exterior painting, paving, landscaping, drainage and planned capital work instead of relying on an older MLS statement describing a prior project as completed.

Westchester Condominium Association

Westchester has its own condominium association and financial structure. Owners share responsibility for common expenses that are different from the obligations associated with Kensington's detached homes and villas.

Association analysis should therefore be treated as an important part of property valuation rather than merely an administrative closing requirement.

Association Financial Due Diligence

Before purchasing, review the current:

operating budget;
condominium and applicable master assessments;
reserve balances and reserve schedules;
master insurance coverage and deductibles;
roof and exterior-maintenance responsibilities;
pool, spa and recreation capital planning;
recent board meeting minutes;
approved or proposed special assessments;
rental and pet restrictions;
parking and garage rules;
renovation and architectural-approval requirements;
current estoppel information.

Condominium Insurance

Westchester buyers should understand the relationship between the association's master insurance coverage and the policy required for the individual residence.

Review deductibles, exclusions, interior responsibility, personal-property coverage, improvements and betterments, flood considerations and potential loss-assessment exposure with appropriate insurance professionals.

Reserve Funding & Assessments

Reserve planning becomes especially important in an established condominium neighborhood because common roofs, exterior surfaces, roads or paving, landscaping and recreational amenities can require significant future expenditures.

A low current fee does not necessarily indicate a lower long-term ownership cost if reserve funding is inadequate or major projects are approaching.

Rental, Pet & Parking Rules

Westchester governing documents may regulate lease periods, number of leases, tenant approval, pets, guest parking, commercial vehicles, garage use and other residential matters.

Buyers with a particular rental plan, pet requirement or vehicle need should verify the current written rules rather than relying on a previous listing description.

Seasonal Ownership

Westchester can be particularly practical for seasonal owners because its residences combine substantial interior space, attached garages, large lanais and shared recreation without the same yard and private-pool maintenance obligations as a detached home.

Owners leaving the residence for extended periods should still consider home-watch services, humidity management, water shutoff or leak detection and storm preparation.

Full-Time Living

Westchester's larger floor plans can also support full-time Naples living. Multiple bedrooms, flexible den or office spaces, large kitchens, storage, screened lanais and two-car garages provide a level of utility uncommon in many smaller condominium developments.

How to Compare Westchester Sales

The strongest comparable sale usually comes from another Westchester residence with a similar floor-plan size and floor level.

An approximately 2,160-square-foot first-floor residence should not automatically be valued from a renovated approximately 2,686-square-foot upper-floor end property with a private elevator simply because both are located on Westchester Court.

Westchester's primary value drivers: floor-plan size → first/second floor → end-unit position → private elevator → permanent view → rear exposure → lanai → garage → renovation → HVAC and major systems → storm protection → association financial condition.

Price Per Square Foot

Price per square foot can be useful as a supporting measure when genuinely similar Westchester residences are compared, but it should not determine value by itself.

The difference between a first-floor interior residence and a larger renovated upper end unit with a private elevator and premium lake-and-golf view can be substantial even when both properties share the same neighborhood.

Kensington Golf & Country Club Membership

Westchester residential ownership and private Club membership should be evaluated separately. Purchasing a Westchester condominium should not be interpreted as automatically conveying a particular golf, sport or social membership.

Membership categories, availability, application procedures, capital obligations, dues, privileges and waiting conditions can change. Buyers who consider Club access important should verify the current opportunity directly with Kensington Golf & Country Club before making a purchase dependent upon membership.

Selling a Westchester Condo

Westchester sellers should position their residence first against the correct Westchester competitive set. Floor-plan size, floor level, end-unit position, elevator, permanent view, garage, lanai and major-system condition should be established before assigning value to cosmetic renovation.

Sellers can also strengthen buyer confidence by documenting association improvements, HVAC and water-heater replacement, storm protection, permitted renovations and other meaningful improvements.
