Medallion Home Wins Overall and Merit Awards at the 2022 Parade of Homes

Feb 22, 2022

It's always a delight to be a Parade of Homes: Manatee & Sarasota Counties overall winner and have our unique floor plans recognized for so many Merit awards! Overall awards are given to communities considered to be the "best of" in their categories, while Merit awards are special acknowledgements given by the Parade of Homes judges for their favorite features in a home. Medallion Home is honored to have won nine Overall awards and nine Merit awards this year! From the architects to the designers, we are so proud and thankful for every person who took part in creating these amazing homes and their distinctive features. We share this notable achievement with all of you! Here are the award winners.


Merit Award Winners


Santa Maria | Ceiling Treatment (Great Room)

With its dramatic height, the unique tray ceiling in this home cannot be outdone. Clad in stained wood and supported by a system of exposed beams, this ceiling lends a majestic air to the great room yet is still warm and inviting. Visit this home in The Reserve at Twin Rivers.


St. Regis | Third Floor Bonus Room

The third-level bonus room in this opulent home offers an entertainment space unlike any other. The space includes a large balcony with beautiful views of the Sarasota Bay, a wet bar, and a powder room. You'll never have to worry about climbing stairs to the third floor; your private elevator brings your right to it. Visit this home in Legends Bay.


Bermuda | Kitchen

With its open and modern layout, impressive ceiling-height cabinets, beautiful backsplash, generous counter space, double ovens, under-counter wine cooler, and large center island with seating, this kitchen represents everything new home buyers want. Visit this home in Watercolor Place.


Regatta III | Owner's Suite

If you like to start your day feeling inspired, the owner's suite in this stunning home is all you'll ever need. Wake up to beautiful views of the Manatee River from this first-floor suite, which is designed for complete comfort and relaxation. This retreat includes dual walk-in closets and a spa-like bathroom with an indoor and outdoor shower. This suite encourages you to savor every moment you're there.


Salt Meadow | Kitchen

This luxury kitchen has a unique design that definitely makes it a show stopper! The massive center island offers seating on three sides and houses a sleek gas cooktop so the host is always at the center of the meal and the attention! With views of the stunning courtyard through tall sliding glass doors, the kitchen is easily the crown of this jewel of a home. Visit this home in Aqua.


Sea Grape | Kitchen

With 14-ft ceilings, a massive wall of cabinetry, sublime in-cabinet and under-cabinet lighting, and a center island large enough to double as an 8-person dining table, this kitchen is built to impress. When you add in the near wall-to-wall sliding glass door to the lanai and optional try ceiling, it really is difficult to find a more amazing kitchen. Visit this home in Aqua.


Captiva | Owner's Suite

We doubt you've seen an owner's suite quite like this. This peaceful retreat is tucked away in one wing of the home for maximum privacy. A dedicated door leads into the hallway of the suite, with the bedroom at one end and the spa-like bath waiting for you at the other. The bath features dual vanities and a beautiful glass-enclosed shower, and the generous walk-in closet has a built-in shelving system. Visit this home in Watercolor Place.


St. Thomas | Kitchen

This kitchen was built for entertaining! With a batwing island that features serving space on three sides, a spacious pantry to store all your supplies, and an open layout that is conducive to cooking and gathering at the same time, the owners of this home will never miss out on their own parties again. Visit this home in Cross Creek.


Grand Cayman | Owner's Suite

This owner's suite is grand enough to compete with the most luxurious of resorts. Except in this home, it's yours to enjoy every day. Step through the private entrance to the suite and be greeted by an opulent hallway punctuated by your own private wet bar. To the right, your gorgeous, light-filled bedroom and sitting area are beckoning you to relax. You're also steps away from your private-access lanai - the perfect place to sip your coffee with a view. Continuing down the other side of the hall, your walk-in closet is spectacular with a floor-to-ceiling, built-in shelving system. At last, your deluxe bathroom is indulgent, with a tiled double shower, stand-alone soaking tub, and beautiful ceramic tilework throughout. Visit this home in Hampton Lakes.

In Florida and throughout the country, PGT Impact Windows are the gold standard when it comes to storm protection. Here at Medallion Home, we initially offered these premium windows as an upgrade because of the investment but they provide so much benefit to the home and peace of mind to the homeowner that we've decided to make them our standard in every home we build. What Are Impact Windows? Impact windows combine heavy-duty aluminum frames with impact-resistant, laminated glass and a special silicone glazing process to keep the glass from breaking away from its frame. That means that during storms and hurricanes, if flying debris hits your windows, they will stay intact rather than shatter, protecting your home from the elements and people and pets from shards of glass. But these windows can do even more. Noise Reduction Your home should be your sanctuary, one where you leave the outside world at the door and that includes noise. Noise pollution is a very real thing and can disrupt your sleep at night, focus during work, or even a good movie night. PGT's impact windows reduce noise from outside by as much as 65%. UV Protection The sun's UV rays are good in small doses to help your body create essential Vitamin D, but there's really no good reason to have them flooding the interior of your home. These powerful rays can fade your furniture, flooring, and drapes, making these items look old and worn before their time. Impact windows can preserve the beauty of your home and help you save money by filtering out 99% of UV rays while still allowing in natural sunlight. Maximum Energy Savings Heating and cooling a home accounts for nearly half of the average American home's energy costs. Security About 23% of all home break-ins are accessed through a first-floor window. Impact windows are designed to withstand repeated impact from a 9-lb, 2x4 beam traveling at 34 miles per hour. It's very, very hard to break an Impact Window (if it can be done at all). It's not the kind of challenge most burglars want to face. Return on Investment For all the reasons above, particularly in Florida where tropical storms and hurricanes are a way of life, impact windows are appealing in any home. These specialty windows can yield as much as an 80% return on investment, ensuring that you'll get top dollar should you ever need to sell your home. Now Standard in All Medallion Homes High quality, impact-resistant windows shouldn't be luxuries - they should be standard features. That's why we now include them in every new home we build. Enjoy the benefits of increased storm protection, noise reduction, UV protection, savings, and security every day. Contact us to learn more.
