About This Home

Imagine yourself living in this "CITY CHIC" home while residing in Bradenton's only Golf & Boating community! Designed with the elevated style of a metropolitan flat, the home has been intelligently reconfigured to prioritize modern utility and flow. Strategic updates include utilizing a part of the golf cart garage, which was wisely utilized to add 54 square feet, enhancing the pantry and laundry room with custom functionality. Redefining the social space, removing a wall opens the room to allow the kitchen to serve as the heart of the home; additionally, the traditional dining room has been transformed into a quiet library and sitting room. Updated flooring extends throughout, complemented by a new fireplace and chimney wall. Both bathrooms have been mostly renovated and feature quartzite counters. Outdoor living is defined by a private pool and spa featuring a newer surface and a refreshed paver deck, perfect for an evening of enjoyment. Located just steps from the first green, this property offers immediate access to the Waterlefe Golf Club, a par-72 championship course that has hosted the U.S. Open Local Qualifier an unprecedented eight times. As a resident, you gain access to the River Club at Waterlefe, which recently underwent significant renovations. Amenities include resort-style riverfront dining, a full-service restaurant, and a poolside Tiki Bar. For those focused on fitness, the "#lefelife" offers a 24/7 fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment and a fitness studio offering weekday classes led by a trained coach. Just beyond the gym sits a Junior Olympic-sized saline swimming pool and a Tiki Bar where you can enjoy a tropical drink and a light bite while soaking in the sun's rays. Waterlefe also offers a 59-slip marina with direct access to the Manatee River and the Gulf of Mexico—a rarity much appreciated by residents. Discover the hallmark of the #lefelife in a community that blends championship golf with a world-class marina lifestyle. Please note that taxes include the CDD fee and that this home is exempt to finance charges associated.
