Never lived in and masterfully constructed, this exceptional waterfront residence presents a rare opportunity to own new construction within the prestigious, gated community of The Islands on the Manatee River. Perfectly positioned in Flood Zone X and appointed with hurricane-impact windows and doors, this home offers peace of mind alongside uncompromising luxury. Designed for the avid boater, the property features river and canal frontage with direct, lock-free access to the Gulf. A private dock (completion forthcoming) creates effortless enjoyment of boating and jet ski adventures from your own backyard. Just three miles from Lakewood Ranch, residents enjoy immediate proximity to world-class dining, shopping, and cultural experiences while returning home to serene waterfront living. Spanning over 3,300 square feet, the thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan includes four spacious bedrooms, four and a half baths, a private executive office, and an expansive bonus room easily suited as a fifth bedroom or media retreat. Soaring ceilings, refined tile flooring, and contemporary architectural lines create a sophisticated yet inviting ambiance throughout. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is both functional and striking—featuring a six-burner gas cooktop, double refrigerator/freezer, oversized quartz island with seating and storage, double-stacked cabinetry, wine refrigeration, and a sunlit dining nook with sliding glass doors that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. The grand great room impresses with a tray ceiling, custom built-ins, fireplace, and a dramatic wall of disappearing glass doors that open to the outdoor sanctuary beyond. Designed for elevated entertaining, the outdoor living space showcases a panoramic pool enclosure, resort-style pool and spa, and a fully equipped summer kitchen—creating a private oasis ideal for gatherings under the Florida sun. Residents enjoy exclusive access to a 24-hour guarded entrance and the Dutch West Indies-inspired River Lodge, offering refined social spaces, a grand fireplace, bar, fitness center, catering kitchen, day dock and launch, as well as outdoor amenities including a fire pit, bocce court, putting green, and barbecue areas.
