ACTIVE HIGH END RESORT LIVING for absolutely all ages coupled with easy LOCK-AND-LEAVE maintenance, even the hurricane shutters are neatly stacked in the attached 2 car garage. All this in a GATED community, with a fully staffed management office on site. Even the LIFE STYLE DIRECTOR is full time, and currently keeps a calendar of events, classes, workshops and entertainment to satisfy the social, wellness and the enrichment goals of residents of all ages. Everything about this Development is as its name suggests, GRAND. But this house is in the COVETED NEIGHBORHOOD 1, offering a quiet oasis from the “Grand” experience. Your LANAI backs up to a NATURE PRESERVE for quiet privacy. A TRANQUIL SWIM or a quick SPA dip is a short walk to your own clubhouse. Residents of this area enjoy “Thirsty Thursdays” and regular cookouts potentially fostering a “blue zone” experience. And Neighborhood 1 has its own onsite manager to make sure your experience is truly turnkey. This particular house offers a NEUTRAL PALLETTE interior with a homogeneous tile floor and light paint under the high open ceilings. The den can be closed off with the existing french doors. It is offered “turn key” with a coveted GAS STOVE! Venturing back to the Grand experience is convenient as SIDEWALKS are in place on both sides of the streets. I see people walking, jogging, riding bikes and enjoying conversations. Miles of WALKING TRAILS are nestled in ACRES of PRESERVES connecting the many parks and amenities. The GRAND PALM PRIMARY CLUBHOUSE and Amenity Collection overlooks a LAKE with a bridge to ADVENTURE ISLAND offering the kids ample enticement to leave the electronics behind. It offers a FORT, two FISHING PIERS, and a KAYAK launch with storage. If that does not wear the little ones out, there is a playground, WATER PARK and huge pool with a LONG WATER SLIDE. Still have some energy? Treat your PETS to their very own gated playground. THE SOCIAL CLUB offers the GRAND BALLROOM and huge kitchen overlooking yet another CABANA CIRCLED BEACH ENTRY POOL AND SPA. SPORTS Include: Pickleball, Tennis, Bocce Ball, Basketball, Volleyball courts. WELLNESS support is accomplished with State-of-the-art Fitness Center, LAP POOLS, Spas and classes. NATURE IS HONORED with miles of picturesque walking and biking TRAILS throughout the community’s NATURAL PRESERVES AND LAKES. SOCIAL LIFE is encouraged by, Pools, Pavilion, Picnic tables, barbecue stations, Ballroom, Game Room, Library, huge kitchen and SCHEDULED EVENTS. The community is in WELLEN PARK which is home to the newly completed Cool Today Training Stadium of the Atlanta Braves. Here, in addition to baseball you can enjoy concerts sometimes accompanied by fireworks. Grand Palm is also very close to several BEACHES and the famous SHARKS TOOTH HUNTING and FESTIVALS in downtown VENICE and ENGLEWOOD.
