One or more photo(s) was virtually staged -- Whether you’re looking for a full-time paradise or just a part-time Florida getaway, this home checks the boxes. This light and bright condo is meticulously maintained and truly move-in ready. Built in 2014 by WCI, this 1,748 sq. ft. first-floor unit has a modern floor plan plus thoughtful upgrades throughout. Enjoy peaceful lagoon views from the open concept living space – the kitchen, eat-in area, living room and dining room. The spacious kitchen has granite countertops with lots of room for seating at the breakfast bar, the cabinets have dovetail drawers with soft-close hinges and the pantry has custom shelving for maximum functionality. There are upgraded light fixtures and plantation shutters throughout the home and the living room features a stunning electric fireplace. The main living area is great for entertaining and can even be expanded by opening the sliding glass doors to the large lanai which has been upgraded with no-see-um screening. The owner’s retreat is really that - with a roomy sleeping area, generously-sized customized walk-in closet, tiled walk-in shower, dual sinks, linen closet and separate water closet. The guest bedrooms are split on either corner of the house. One has a walk-in closet and the other has been fitted with custom shelving. The updates even extend to the guest bathroom which really sparkles thanks to the new Cambria quartz countertop. There’s no carpet in this home as the main living areas have ceramic tile and the bedrooms have AquaGuard waterproof wood-based laminate flooring. Other improvements include a water filtration system, newer water softener, epoxy floor in the garage, UV light on the HVAC and a newer hot water heater (2020). This well-built home suffered NO damage from either Hurricane Helene or Hurricane Milton. The gated community of Tidewater Preserve has many great amenities. There are two clubhouses including the Lodge with resort-style pool, fitness center, community room, kitchen and playground. Boaters can have their fun too thanks to the private marina in the lagoon (with access to the Manatee River) with slips available for rent, plus a canoe/kayak launch with storage. And don’t forget about the three Har-Tru tennis courts.
