Welcome to a stunning island residence that effortlessly blends luxury, durability, and style. Perched on elevated ground over 9 feet, this 2022 custom-built home was thoughtfully designed to maximize peace of mind and waterfront living. Never affected by flooding or storms, it showcases exceptional resilience thanks to its solid construction, metal roof, and adherence to the most current building codes. Nestled mid-island in a prime location, you’re just minutes from local shops, top-rated restaurants, and vibrant island attractions, yet perfectly situated to enjoy tranquility and privacy. Inside, the home is turnkey furnished in a clean, coastal aesthetic, ready for immediate enjoyment or use as a high-income rental. With under three years of age, everything feels fresh, stylish, and intentionally crafted. The open-concept layout features a spacious living area with upscale leather recliners, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and a designer chef’s kitchen equipped with a commercial-grade dual fuel gas range—ideal for entertaining or quiet nights in. Elegant ceiling treatments add depth and character to the space, complementing the high-end finishes throughout. Three beautifully appointed bedrooms provide both comfort and flexibility. The primary suite includes a king-size bed, while the guest rooms offer queen and full-sized beds, along with a functional workspace. Every detail has been considered for ease of living or hosting guests. Step outside to a private resort-style backyard, where a saltwater pool with a unique misting system invites you to relax while enjoying uninterrupted views of the wide canal. The fully equipped outdoor kitchen is perfect for alfresco dining, and the 10,000-lb covered boat lift allows for instant access to the water—whether you're cruising, kayaking, or fishing. The tropical yard is fully fenced and low maintenance, complemented by an irrigation system and top-tier home security for added peace of mind. An oversized three-car garage offers ample space for vehicles and tools, while an additional 25' x 80' parcel across the street provides bonus storage for boats, RVs, or extra toys. Located within the desirable Manatee Bay community, residents enjoy access to a private boat ramp and are just steps from the scenic Calusa Land Trust trail system, perfect for nature enthusiasts. As a bonus, a like-new 2023, 22-foot tritoon deck boat with low hours is available for separate purchase. Whether you're looking for a permanent home, seasonal getaway, or high-yield rental opportunity, this exceptional turnkey furnished property delivers on every front. Experience island living at its finest.
