What if your everyday life felt a little more like a vacation? Welcome to a beautifully maintained, like-new home in Tidewater Preserve, where resort-style amenities, boating, and effortless indoor-outdoor living come together in one incredible setting along the Manatee River. From the moment you arrive, the newly landscaped front yard welcomes you with colorful blooms and a sense that you’ve found something special. Step through the front door and you’ll immediately appreciate the open, inviting layout, thoughtful upgrades, and beautiful finishes throughout. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home, with premium LG Black Stainless appliances, including a gas range with double ovens, a counter-depth French-door refrigerator with a convenient glass viewing panel, and a dishwasher with a steam-cleaning cycle. There’s plenty of room to cook, gather, and entertain, thanks to generous counter space, abundant 40-inch cabinetry, and two large pantries. The upgrades continue throughout the home. Durable porcelain tile flows beautifully from room to room, while 8-foot doorways, tray ceilings, crown molding, plantation shutters, and light-softening curtains create an elevated yet comfortable feel. Modern lighting inside and out, interior wall sound insulation, shiplap accents in the powder room and laundry, a built-in security system, queen-size Murphy bed, and custom closet organization add both style and everyday functionality. And then there’s the view. The expansive quadruple sliders open the living space to your private outdoor retreat. Step outside to your sparkling saltwater pool and spa, where coveted southern exposure and a private preserve setting create the perfect backdrop for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying a quiet Florida evening. The fully equipped summer kitchen, complete with an outdoor refrigerator, makes al fresco dining and poolside gatherings easy all year long. Life at Tidewater Preserve is about more than the home, it’s about the lifestyle. For boating enthusiasts, the community offers a private marina with boat lifts equipped with electric and water, providing direct access to the Manatee River and beyond. From there, you can connect to the Intracoastal Waterway and Gulf of Mexico and make the most of every sunny Florida day on the water. The HOA also includes ground maintenance and a Spectrum package with cable and Wi-Fi/internet, and there’s NO CDD FEE. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities including a fitness center, two clubhouses, multiple pools, Har-Tru tennis courts, a scenic walking trail along the Manatee River, dog park, playground, kayak launch, and boat lifts from the community boating lagoon. Picture slow mornings, afternoons by the pool, evenings dining outside, and weekends on the water all without leaving the community you call home. And when you do want to venture out, you’re conveniently located near Gulf beaches, Sarasota, Tampa, and Lakewood Ranch. Beautifully finished. Effortlessly livable. And a Florida lifestyle you’ll never want to leave.
