WATERFRONT/CANAL-FRONT RESIDENCE situated in a guard-gated boating community with the option of a golf membership. The Islands is located just 3 MILES FROM LAKEWOOD RANCH which gives the community the conveniences of Lakewood Ranch while enjoying the boating life that is not an option in Lakewood Ranch. This gorgeous 2019-built home has the very rare option to belong to a golf club while having a boat or jet ski in your own backyard! You will enjoy refined country living and the ultimate coastal Florida lifestyle on this nearly half-acre property, including a TREX BOAT DOCK & 16K BOAT LIFT with electric/water, DIRECT ACCESS to the Manatee River (no lift system/lock system which allows you to have small watercraft such as jet skis or kayaks) which leads you directly to the Intracoastal, Gulf of Mexico & beyond, while also offering an optional social or golf membership in the private golf & country club of River Wilderness. Relax and soak in tranquil waterfront views on the expansive clearview-screened lanai, which offers a pool/spa, outdoor kitchen, and fire pit. Dine alfresco beneath the spacious covered patio which flows into a sitting area to entertain guests. Inside, the custom split-bedroom floorplan includes three bedrooms, three baths, a dedicated den/office, and a large bonus room encompassing nearly 3,000 square feet, with 12-foot high ceilings, neutral tile flooring and a contemporary design. Chefs will stay connected to conversations while preparing delectable meals in the open, well-equipped kitchen which features an oversized island, illuminated quartz counters, wine refrigerator, and a dining space with corner sliding glass doors for the indoor/outdoor dining experience. Other highlights of this fabulous home include hurricane-impact windows/doors, expansive hurricane screens on lanai, solar pool heater, and Jet Ski docking - all located in a custom-home neighborhood where you won't see the same house over and over. No CDD fee. HOA fee includes a 24-hour guard, access to the Dutch West Indies styled River Lodge, where residents and their guests can gather for happy hour to eat/drink, play games, or watch collegiate rowing teams training on the river. In addition to a community day dock and launch, the facility includes an inviting great room with a grand fireplace, a bar area, large-screen televisions, card tables, and a catering kitchen. A state-of-the-art fitness center is available, along with an oversized patio with comfortable seating, outdoor fire pit, bocce ball court, putting green and barbecue.
