Step into this beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom first-floor veranda with a den/office and immediately feel at home. The open-concept floor plan creates a spacious and inviting atmosphere, where the living room, dining room, and eat-in kitchen all flow together and look out onto spectacular views of the golf course and the Manatee River. The primary bedroom is a comfortable retreat with its great walk-in closets and an ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and double sinks. The guest bedroom is perfect for visitors, accommodating a queen-sized bed with ease. For those who work from home or need a quiet space, the dedicated den/office is an ideal solution. After a day of activity, you can park your car out of the sun in the one-car garage and relax on the back lanai under the gentle breeze of a tropical fan. This property also presents a fantastic opportunity as a rental investment. River Strand Golf and Country Club has an incredible array of amenities. You can tee off on the newly redesigned 27-hole course, play doubles on one of the nine Har-Tru tennis courts, or join friends for a game on one of the eight pickleball courts. For dining, you have options from the casual tiki bar with light bites and beverages to the Grille Room with a full menu. The Clubhouse restaurants are open seven days a week, offering drinks, appetizers, and dinner. The community is always buzzing with weekly entertainment, including bingo, Name that Tune, and trivia nights, along with holiday parties and clubs planned year-round. When it’s time to cool off, you'll have a hard time deciding which of the eight community pools to visit, including two resort-style pools with hot tubs and a resistance pool for exercise. River Strand is centrally located near a Costco-anchored marketplace, the popular UTC shopping and entertainment center, and numerous medical facilities. Beyond the community, world-famous beaches are within reach for a day of boating, fishing, collecting seashells, or dining on fresh seafood. It's time to join the others who have already found their happy place here in the River Strand Golf and Country Club.
