Florencia Floor Plans
Florencia's strongest comparable-sale analysis starts with its six residence positions rather than treating all 116 condominiums as one market.
01 & 06 Corner Plans
Approximately 2,661 square feet with three bedrooms plus a den, three baths and roughly 615 square feet of combined terrace space.
02 & 05 Plans
Approximately 2,273–2,274 square feet, commonly with two bedrooms plus den, two-and-one-half baths and roughly 305 square feet of terrace space.
03 & 04 Plans
Approximately 2,086 square feet, commonly configured with three bedrooms and three baths plus approximately 365 square feet of terrace area.
Florencia valuation rule: identify the exact 01–06 plan first. A 2,086-square-foot interior residence and a 2,661-square-foot corner residence belong to different competitive groups even at similar elevations.
01 and 06 Corner Residences
The approximately 2,661-square-foot 01 and 06 homes are Florencia's largest standard residences and deserve their own comparison whenever meaningful same-plan sales exist.
Their corner positions can provide more exterior glass, a den, multiple terraces and views in more than one direction. Depending on stack and elevation, residents may enjoy morning golf or lake scenery together with western Estero Bay, Gulf and sunset exposure.
Approximately 615 square feet of combined terrace area also makes outdoor living a more significant part of these floor plans than in Florencia's smaller residences.
02 and 05 Residences
Florencia's approximately 2,273- to 2,274-square-foot plans form another distinct comparable group.
These residences commonly provide two bedrooms plus a den and two-and-one-half baths, although individual properties may have been modified. Their floor-plan size, terrace configuration and orientation should be compared first with other 02 or 05 sales.
03 and 04 Residences
The approximately 2,086-square-foot 03 and 04 residences are generally Florencia's smallest standard plans but still provide substantial three-bedroom high-rise living.
Their market results demonstrate how important floor and view can become. Two similarly sized Florencia residences may sell at very different prices when one offers a premium upper-floor Gulf and Estero Bay perspective and another has a lower golf or preserve orientation.
Private Elevator Entry
Many Florencia residences are designed around secure private elevator arrival into an individual foyer, minimizing conventional shared residential corridors.
Buyers should confirm the exact elevator arrangement for the individual condominium together with service-elevator procedures, moving policies and emergency operations.
Terraces and Outdoor Living
Outdoor living is integrated throughout Florencia's floor-plan design.
Terrace area varies materially by plan, with the largest corner residences providing approximately 615 square feet of combined outdoor space and the smaller plans retaining useful screened or open terraces.
Terrace Size Compare usable outdoor area rather than interior square footage alone.
Orientation Eastern and western exposures provide different light and views.
Screening Verify screened versus open-air portions.
Sun Exposure Western terraces receive stronger afternoon light.
Wind Conditions can change substantially with elevation.
Storm Protection Verify shutters or impact systems for the exact residence.
Golf, Lake, Estero Bay and Gulf Views
Florencia's view hierarchy changes with both stack and elevation.
Lower floors can emphasize The Colony Golf & Country Club, lakes, landscaping and mangrove preserve. Middle and upper floors may gain progressively broader visibility across Estero Bay toward the Gulf of Mexico.
Golf Course Fairways can create a manicured foreground.
Lake Water within The Colony can increase openness and visual depth.
Preserve Mangrove and coastal vegetation add privacy and separation.
Estero Bay Middle and high floors may gain broader water visibility.
Gulf Horizon Higher elevations can extend sightlines beyond Estero Bay.
Sunrise & Sunset Through-view and corner plans may capture both eastern and western light.
Garage Parking and Storage
Florencia provides secure under-building garage parking, and multiple current and recent residences document two parking spaces.
Buyers should still verify the precise spaces associated with the condominium because parking location, storage rights and electrical access can differ.
Parking Count Confirm the exact number of spaces conveying.
Location Elevator proximity can affect daily convenience.
Storage Confirm locker or storage-room rights separately.
EV Charging Review current electrical access and association rules.
Florencia Private Amenities
Florencia maintains a substantial building-level amenity program separate from the broader Colony and Pelican Landing amenities.
Resort-Style Pool Private landscaped swimming and relaxation environment.
Spa Outdoor spa adjacent to the pool area.
Fitness Center Dedicated Florencia exercise facilities.
Movie Theater Private resident screening room.
Social Areas Resident gathering and event spaces.
Two Guest Suites Reservable accommodations for visitors.
On-Site Management Building management supports day-to-day operations.
Controlled Access Secure entry, elevators and garage environment.
Updated Lobby and Common Areas
Florencia's common spaces have been improved since its original 2007 completion.
Current resale descriptions identify a remodeled main lobby together with established theater, fitness, social and guest facilities.
Buyers should evaluate both completed improvements and future capital planning through current association records rather than assuming an attractive renovated lobby represents the condition of every major building component.
Renovated vs. More Original Florencia Condos
Nearly two decades of individual ownership have created substantial variation in interior condition.
Updated Florencia residences can include redesigned kitchens, new cabinetry, quartz or stone countertops, premium appliances, remodeled bathrooms, flooring, custom built-ins and contemporary lighting, while other units may retain more original WCI-era finishes.
Kitchen Compare layout, cabinetry, surfaces and appliances.
Bathrooms Distinguish full renovation from cosmetic updating.
Flooring Review quality and condominium sound-control requirements.
Built-Ins Custom cabinetry and millwork can materially affect utility.
HVAC Verify equipment age and service history.
Storm Protection Separate meaningful building-system upgrades from décor.
Florencia Condominium Due Diligence
A Florencia purchase requires review of both the residence and Florencia at The Colony Condominium Association.
Operating Budget Review current operating expenses and recent fee changes.
Reserve Funding Compare reserves with anticipated capital requirements.
SIRS Request current Structural Integrity Reserve Study information applicable to the association.
Structural Reports Review inspections and engineering documents applicable to the building.
Master Insurance Understand coverage, deductibles and owner responsibilities.
Assessments Identify current, approved, proposed and recent assessments.
Capital Projects Review elevators, exterior, garage, pool, waterproofing and mechanical work.
Rules Confirm rental, pet, parking, guest and renovation restrictions.
Board Minutes Review recent meetings for planned projects or litigation.
Resale Documents Obtain current disclosures, estoppel and association documentation.
Hurricane Protection, Flood and Insurance
Florencia's coastal setting makes storm and insurance review an important part of buyer due diligence.
Electric or automatic shutters are represented among Florencia residences, but buyers should verify hurricane protection opening by opening rather than assuming every condominium has an identical system.
Review the association master policy together with the owner's HO-6 policy, applicable flood considerations, deductibles and loss-assessment coverage.
The Colony Bay Club
Florencia owners participate in The Colony residential lifestyle, including access to the resident-only Bay Club overlooking Estero Bay.
Waterfront dining and social activities at the Bay Club are separate from Florencia's own private tower amenities and also separate from membership at The Colony Golf & Country Club.
Pelican Landing Private Gulf Beach Park
Florencia owners also receive applicable Pelican Landing residential privileges, including access to the private Gulf Beach Park on Big Hickory Island by community boat transportation.
Pelican Landing recreation also includes tennis, pickleball, fitness, bocce, sailing, kayaking, canoeing and other community amenities under current rules.
Beach transportation schedules, guest procedures and operating policies should be confirmed through current community information.
Optional Private Golf
Florencia condominium ownership does not automatically include membership at The Colony Golf & Country Club.
The private Club operates separately from residential ownership and features an 18-hole Jerry Pate-designed championship course.
Buyers who consider golf essential should independently verify current membership categories, availability, waiting procedures, initiation requirements, dues and privileges before making a purchase dependent upon golf access.
2026 Florencia Market Context
Florencia's 2026 transactions demonstrate how dramatically floor and view can affect value even within the same floor-plan family.
Unit 1404, an approximately 2,086-square-foot residence, closed at approximately $1.40 million in April 2026, while Unit 604 with approximately the same living area closed at approximately $775,000 in July. Unit 203, also approximately 2,086 square feet, closed for approximately $579,500.
A 2,274-square-foot Unit 1105 closed at approximately $999,000.
Those transactions illustrate why an overall Florencia price-per-square-foot average can be misleading when floor, stack, exposure, renovation and view differ materially.
How to Value a Florencia Condo
01–06 Plan Identify the exact residence position first.
Living Area Separate 2,086-, 2,273/2,274- and 2,661-square-foot groups.
Floor Elevation changes privacy and water-view potential.
Stack Compare corner, interior and through-view orientations.
View Distinguish golf, lake, preserve, Estero Bay and Gulf exposure.
Terraces Compare total area, exposure, screening and storm protection.
Renovation Adjust for kitchens, baths, flooring, systems and custom work.
Association Condition Consider reserves, insurance, assessments and planned projects.
Best Florencia sequence: floor plan → floor → stack/orientation → Gulf, Estero Bay, golf or lake view → terraces → parking and storage → renovation → association condition → strongest recent same-building sales.
Florencia occupies a different segment from The Colony's largest luxury towers because its principal floor plans run from approximately 2,086 to 2,661 square feet.
Altaira offers newer 2017 construction and substantially larger standard residences above approximately 3,300 square feet.
La Scala offers very low density and estate-scale floor plans, while Treviso provides a closer established-tower comparison for buyers considering residences in the roughly 2,700- to 3,100-square-foot range.
Selling a Florencia Residence
Florencia sellers should identify the exact 01–06 floor plan before comparing the residence with other Colony condominiums.
Marketing should document floor, corner or interior position, Gulf and Estero Bay visibility, golf and lake outlook, terrace configuration, parking, storage, hurricane protection and significant renovation.
Sellers of the larger 2,661-square-foot corner residences should emphasize additional interior area, den, multiple exposures and substantially greater terrace space rather than relying only on a building-wide price-per-square-foot comparison.
