Carlyle is a boutique townhouse community nestled within the prestigious Coquina Sands neighborhood of Naples, Florida. Known for its spacious multi-level residences, exceptional walkability, and prime location just one block from the Gulf of Mexico, Carlyle offers homeowners a unique blend of single-family home privacy with the convenience of condominium living. Built in the mid-1970s, this intimate community has become one of Coquina Sands' hidden gems, attracting buyers seeking a low-maintenance lifestyle just steps from Lowdermilk Beach and minutes from downtown Naples.
Located on Banyan Boulevard in the heart of Coquina Sands, Carlyle enjoys one of Naples' most desirable addresses. Residents are just a short walk from Lowdermilk Beach Park, where sugar-white sand beaches, picnic pavilions, volleyball courts, and breathtaking Gulf sunsets await. Fifth Avenue South, Third Street South, Venetian Village, Waterside Shops, Artis—Naples, and the Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort are all only minutes away. Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) is approximately 35 minutes from the community, making Carlyle equally appealing for full-time residents and seasonal homeowners.
Originally developed in the mid-1970s, Carlyle consists of a limited collection of two-story townhome-style residences arranged around beautifully landscaped courtyards. Homes generally offer approximately 1,500 to over 2,000 square feet of living space with spacious two- and three-bedroom floor plans, attached garages or assigned parking, private entrances, multiple outdoor living areas, and generous storage. The townhouse design provides homeowners with the feel of a private residence while benefiting from maintenance-free ownership. Many homes have been extensively renovated with open-concept kitchens, quartz or granite countertops, custom cabinetry, premium appliances, luxury flooring, impact-resistant windows and doors, designer bathrooms, and elegant coastal finishes.
One of Carlyle's defining characteristics is its residential atmosphere. Unlike larger condominium developments, the community offers quiet landscaped courtyards, mature tropical vegetation, and a peaceful setting just steps from the beach. Beautiful banyan trees, flowering tropical plants, and lush landscaping create an inviting environment that reflects the timeless charm of Coquina Sands while providing exceptional privacy for residents.
Residents enjoy a variety of amenities designed to complement Naples' relaxed coastal lifestyle. Carlyle features a heated community swimming pool, barbecue and picnic area, beautifully maintained courtyards, extra storage, and professionally managed common areas. The community's smaller size creates a friendly neighborhood atmosphere where residents enjoy both privacy and a strong sense of community.
One of Carlyle's greatest advantages is its outstanding walkability. Residents can easily stroll to Lowdermilk Beach for swimming, shelling, paddleboarding, or sunset walks along the Gulf. Downtown Naples is only minutes away, offering award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, art galleries, entertainment, and cultural events along Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South. Nearby Venetian Village, Waterside Shops, championship golf courses, and the new Four Seasons Resort further enhance the neighborhood's appeal.
Maintenance-free ownership is another significant benefit of living at Carlyle. Exterior maintenance, landscaping, irrigation, and common area upkeep are managed through the homeowners association, allowing residents to spend more time enjoying Naples' beaches, boating, golf courses, dining, and year-round outdoor recreation. This lock-and-leave lifestyle makes Carlyle especially attractive to retirees, seasonal residents, and second-home buyers.
Real estate within Carlyle remains highly desirable because of its townhouse floor plans, boutique atmosphere, exceptional beachside location, and limited inventory. Buyers appreciate the opportunity to enjoy the space and privacy of a single-family-style residence while benefiting from condominium convenience in one of Naples' most prestigious neighborhoods. Whether searching for a seasonal retreat, retirement home, or investment opportunity, Carlyle offers outstanding value within Coquina Sands.
