Modern Furniture for Lotus Edge Homes in Boca Raton
Lotus and Lotus Edge, the GL Homes communities on Lyons Road in west Boca Raton, are mostly being furnished from an empty floor plan. A buyer closes on a finished single-family home with an open great room that runs straight into the kitchen, a covered outdoor living area off the back, tall ceilings, and a primary suite with more wall length than a standard bedroom set can fill. Furniture carried over from a previous house tends to look undersized in these rooms, and the whole home usually needs to come together around one closing date.
SoBe Furniture is a modern furniture showroom on US-1 (Federal Highway) in north Boca Raton, about 9 miles and roughly 20 minutes from Lotus Edge. What matters for these houses is scale: the sectionals, rectangular dining tables and king bedroom sets on the floor are sized for a great room that runs kitchen to lanai. A good share of them are in stock in the local warehouse, and the balance is built to order, with the fabric, leather or finish chosen at the showroom against your plan.
This page covers how Lotus Edge buyers, and their neighbors in Boca Bridges, the nearby GL Homes community, typically plan a whole-house order: what to pull off the builder's floor plan before you visit, which rooms to decide first, and how white-glove delivery works at a gated GL Homes community.

What Is on the Floor in Boca Raton
Lotus Edge great rooms are large enough that most buyers want to sit on a sectional at full scale before committing to it. The displays that matter for a Lotus Edge plan are shown at that scale: a full-size sectional or sofa, in leather or fabric, facing a media wall built from TV stands, entertainment pieces or custom wall units; a dining room with a rectangular dining table and the number of dining chairs a long open-plan table needs; and a king bedroom in which the bed, nightstands and dresser are sold as a set or individually.
For the kitchen island there are counter stools and bar stools, and for the study there are desks and office chairs. Coffee tables, console tables and decor round out the rooms, and the Just In collection shows what has landed most recently.
Furnishing a New Lotus Edge Home
Buyers who arrive with the builder's floor plan get the most out of a visit. Before you come, mark the following on the plan: the width and depth of the great room from the back of the kitchen island to the far wall, the width of the wall where the TV will go, the position and swing of the sliders out to the covered outdoor area, the wall lengths in the primary bedroom, and the clear space in the dining area. Ceiling heights matter too, because a sofa with a low back and a short console can look lost under a tall ceiling.
If you would rather not carry the plan in, send it ahead by email or through the contact form and a designer will plan the rooms with you from it. There is no charge for the planning session; it happens at the showroom with your GL Homes plan on the table. The new-home furnishing page covers the general sequence; the Lotus Edge version of it looks like this.
- Sectional first. In an open great room the sectional does the job walls do elsewhere: it defines where the living area starts and where the kitchen ends. Decide its footprint and orientation before anything else, and choose a rug large enough that at least the front legs of every seat rest on it. A sectional that faces the media wall while keeping a clear lane to the sliders is the usual arrangement in these plans.
- Dining. Count the seats you actually host, then check that chairs can pull out fully without hitting the island or the wall. A rectangular table generally suits the long run between kitchen and lanai that Lotus Edge plans tend to have; a round table suits a squarer breakfast area.
- Primary suite. Measure the headboard wall and the walls flanking it. A king bed with two full-size nightstands and a dresser or bench at the foot is the usual starting point; the wall length tells you whether there is room for a pair of wider nightstands instead of narrow ones. Families who share the bed with young children can look at XL family beds, which measure 120 inches wide (two Queen mattresses) or 152 inches wide (two King), in four signature designs or fully custom.
- Media wall. A freestanding TV stand is the fastest option. A custom wall unit built to your room's exact dimensions is the more involved option, but it fills the full width of the wall, hides equipment and gives the great room a finished focal point. Final measurements are taken at your home before fabrication.
- Outdoor. The covered outdoor living area is usually furnished last, once the indoor pieces are placed and you can see how the sight line from the sectional through the sliders reads. Outdoor pieces are part of the showroom range.
Closets are the other item worth deciding early; custom closets are planned to the room's dimensions and, like wall units, are measured on site before they are built. None of the custom work carries a list price: wall units, closets and XL beds are each quoted once a consultation at the showroom has established what the rooms need.
Delivery and Move-In
There is no delivery or installation charge for Lotus or Lotus Edge; the whole of Palm Beach County is inside the free white-glove zone. You are given a delivery window ahead of time, and the crew clears the gate pass and any certificate of insurance the community asks for before the truck arrives, then carries each piece to the room on the floor plan, assembles it there and leaves with the packaging. The mechanics of it are on the white-glove delivery page.
For a new-construction closing, the practical order is: close, collect keys and gate credentials, then set the delivery date. Deliveries are scheduled around your closing date, once you have keys and gate access arranged. Walk the house with your builder's punch list before delivery so touch-up painters are not working around a placed sectional.
A whole-house order does not have to land on one statement. The showroom's 6- or 12-month interest-free financing through the Synchrony HOME Credit Card with approved credit lets a Lotus Edge order be spread across the months after closing; the terms are on the financing page.
Questions from Lotus Edge Buyers
How far is SoBe Furniture from Lotus Edge?
About 9 miles, or roughly 20 minutes. From Lyons Road take Yamato Road east across I-95 to US-1 (Federal Highway), then go north about a mile to 6599 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33487. Once you are heading north on US-1 the showroom is about a mile past Yamato Road (I-95 exit 48), with free parking on site.
Does SoBe Furniture deliver to Lotus and Lotus Edge?
Yes, at no charge. Lotus and Lotus Edge sit well inside the Palm Beach County zone where white-glove delivery and installation are included. The crew schedules a delivery window, places and assembles each piece in its room, removes the packaging, and handles the gate pass and any certificate of insurance the community requires.
Can I plan the furniture before my Lotus Edge home closes?
Yes. Bring the builder's floor plan and elevations to the showroom, or send them ahead by email or the contact form, and a designer will plan the rooms with you at a complimentary consultation. Delivery is then scheduled around your closing date, once you have keys and gate access arranged.
What size sectional fits a Lotus Edge great room?
It depends on the distance from the back of the kitchen island to the far wall and on where the sliders to the covered outdoor area sit. Measure both, keep a clear walking lane to the sliders, and size the sectional so it defines the living zone without crowding the island. The showroom displays sectionals at full scale so you can check the footprint in person.
Can SoBe Furniture build a media wall for a Lotus Edge great room?
Yes. Custom wall units are built to your room's exact dimensions, so the unit can span the full width of the TV wall and conceal equipment. Final measurements are taken at your home before fabrication, and pricing is quoted after a showroom consultation.
Do you carry beds larger than a king for a Lotus Edge primary suite?
Yes. XL family beds come in 120-inch (two Queen mattresses) and 152-inch (two King) widths, in four signature designs or fully custom. Measure the headboard wall first, since the wider size needs room for the bed plus nightstands.
