What makes Southern Clipper in The Moorings development an attractive choice?

The history

Southern Clipper has been a well-known prime beachfront community within the distinguished Moorings neighborhood for almost five decades. As with many of the condominium communities that rose up along the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Moorings Bay since the 1950s, Southern Clipper spreads its units over a mix of building types.

The community boasts a low density of only 30 units with 12 units divided across six connected two-story villa-style buildings that feature two units per floor and the remaining 18 units in a six-story tower that abuts Gulf Shore Blvd N. Southern Clipper has been extensively renovated over the years to match changes in design trends and homeowner needs while still retaining its original charm.

Location, location, location

Residents of Southern Clipper enjoy one of the best Moorings’ locations for fast access to nearly every part of the region. Each building offers views of the Gulf of Mexico and Moorings Bay. Residents are within a few steps of private beach access or visit the Moorings Beach Private Park. They also receive access to membership options at the Moorings Country Club and Golf Course.

Plenty of dining, grocery and retail shopping options are available less than a mile from the community at The Village Shops on Venetian Bay. The open-air, Mediterranean-style, upscale shopping mall is built on the waters of the Gulf and provides leased space to more than 45 merchants. In the nearby Naples’ downtown, which is a short drive away, residents can find additional fine dining establishments, boutiques and a variety of businesses which include antique stores, bookstores and jewelers.

There is no end to the opportunities for fun and adventure in the area. Southern Clipper residents and visitors alike can explore historic sites, museums and sanctuaries and experience a variety of public, cultural and other events throughout the year.

Superior community amenities

Southern Clipper has everything that a homeowner, vacationer or seasonal resident might need for home-based peace and comfort. The community’s spacious units, which range from 1,300 to 2,400 square feet in size, offer between two and three beds and baths and a screened in veranda. Each unit also features electric central heating and cooling, major appliances, walk-in-closets and a kitchen pantry.

Although these homes have washer/dryer hookups, the community offers a laundry room. Brick pathways lined with palm trees, shrubs and potted plants at ground level curve around a large 9-foot, 6-inch pool located between the buildings that’s protected by a slat-style fence. White lounge chairs give residents a place to relax in the sun or shade. Residents who want to sit closer to the beach also have access to two benches right next it.

Other benefits include trash chutes, extra storage on each unit floor, bike storage, security lights, a barbecue grilling area and carport parking spaces. An on-site manager is also available to answer questions and handle emergencies.
