What People Say About Biltmore

Residents appreciate the accessibility to each unit is only shared by one other resident. They value the abundance of natural light that flows from east to west through each unit. A unique feature at Biltmore is the amount of lanai space offered. Interior units provide three separate lanai spaces. End units offer two large lanais.

Some prospective buyers feel the slightly set-back position of Biltmore hinders views due to the positioning of the neighboring buildings Brighton and Windsor in the first and fourth stack. Buyers considering a purchase who anticipate larger gatherings may complain about the size of the lanais with the interior stacks as they are a split concept making it challenging to furnish both a dining and a seating arrangement on one common lanai space.

My Showing Experience at Biltmore

Showing condos in Biltmore is consistently a pleasure since completing the multi-million dollar remodel of 2016 by Olsson Fernandez Design of Miami. My clients have valued the more contemporary flavor of the aesthetic appeal and the overall quality of maintenance that consistently takes place at Biltmore.

Prospective buyers appreciate the thoughtfulness in the floor plan designs and enjoy having more than one lanai space, especially if they anticipate a steady flow of guests and visiting family in this tropical locale. Some residents have opted to blow out the kitchen wall separating the living area. Many have made other cosmetic changes throughout time, but ultimately, the floor plans and flow continue to serve current residents well.

Rules and Regulations

Rental policies allow Biltmore at Bay Colony owners to rent their units once per year with a 90-day minimum lease, but most owners do not consider renting as a personal option.

One dog no taller than 15 inches at the shoulder or two cats are permitted. 2 birds are also allowed.

Record-Breaking Sales

The most notable sale in Biltmore happened in July 2017 when #2202 closed for $8,250,000. This unit was NOT updated to 2017 maximum standards. The limit of what a condominium in Biltmore could sell for has likely not been recognized.

You can expect the most premium pricing during low inventory periods and when units have been recently remodeled with popular luxury selections. You can also count on discounts for units in original or dated conditions.

Comparable Buildings To Biltmore

Carlysle At Bay Colony is the closest match to Biltmore with similar improvements, proximity, and pricing.

Remington at Bay Colony is a similar building but is widely considered a bit more luxurious with price matching perception. Remington’s location is a bit more congested on the sand during peak season. Ask me more about other acceptable options.
