Magnificent Tamaya - Taking Shape

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Oct. 26, 2015 - PRLog -- The master-planned community of Tamaya is coming to life, offering an unmatched combination of natural beauty, Old World-style architecture and exceptional amenities.

“Tamaya is an extraordinary community that is absolutely one-of-a-kind,” said Don Wilford, North Florida division president of ICI Homes. “Our community is rich in character and quickly attracting discerning homebuyers seeking a special place to call home.”

Tamaya’s new grand entrance fronting Beach Boulevard is well underway with completion anticipated in early 2016. The entry way will lead to a tree-lined boulevard and a magnificent two-story gatehouse that residents and guests will pass through to enter the neighborhoods at Tamaya. The community’s new grand entrance will provide a warm and inviting welcome to residents and guests, and be the gateway to Tamaya’s beautiful parks, meandering walking trails and luxurious Mediterranean-style homes.

Construction is underway on the crown jewel of the community, its $11 million Residents Club. A gathering place for entertainment and get-togethers, The Residents Club will be the community’s go-to place for fitness, wellness and relaxation.

Designed exclusively for Tamaya homeowners, the Residents Club will feature a resort-style pool and outdoor recreation areas, including tennis and an event lawn. The clubhouse will span 10,000 square feet and contain nearly 4,500 square feet of interior fitness space including an expansive cardio room and a separate yoga and pilates studio overlooking a garden and fountain area.

The Residents Club will offer numerous social gathering places to enhance the community living experience including a spacious great room with catering kitchen, a clubroom, a covered porch and an outdoor patio. In harmony with Tamaya’s Mediterranean influences, the clubhouse will exude a comfortable elegance with contemporary Italian Renaissance style. The interior design will highlight a neutral color palette with striking blue accents, clean lines, wood flooring and luxurious features and finishes. Completion of the Residents Club is anticipated in late summer 2016.

“Our Residents Club will be the focal point of our remarkable community, offering a wonderful setting for families to connect and experience the Tamaya lifestyle,” said David Haas, chief development officer at ICI Homes of Tamaya. “Residents will enjoy an unmatched combination of world-class amenities, convenience and award-winning homes by ICI Homes.”
