Convenience is key with a spacious laundry room housing newer full-sized machines and an attached carport facilitating easy access to your front door for groceries and luggage. In addition, you have your own private patio, perfect for barbecuing the catch of the day, al fresco dining under the stars or watching manatees and dolphins. Venturing beyond your personal oasis, you can indulge in abundant community amenities including 2 heated pools with complementary chaises, saunas, tennis and pickle ball courts, a fitness center, shuffleboard courts, boat slips ($45/month or $50/month with an owner supplied lift), kayak and paddle board storage/launches ($35/year), fishing, 3 beach accesses, and scenic biking/walking paths through 26 acres of professionally landscaped bay front grounds. An additional perk includes the Zota Beach Resort just across the street for fine dining and sunset happy hours. For peace of mind, the community is proactive in maintenance, passing its structural integrity inspection and receiving certification for another ten years.
