One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Imagine a Florida home where weekends aren't spent maintaining the yard or taking care of a pool, but deciding whether the day calls for Anna Maria Island, a kayak on Palma Sola Bay, a walk through Robinson Preserve, or simply an afternoon by the pool. Just 4 miles from the Gulf beaches, this spacious 3-bedroom residence at Palma Sola Bay Club offers the freedom of maintenance-free living with the amenities and atmosphere of a true coastal lifestyle community. Set across 30 acres of lush tropical grounds, Palma Sola Bay Club was designed for enjoying the Florida lifestyle beyond your own front door. Start the morning along scenic walking paths, meet neighbors at the heated pool or clubhouse, spend an afternoon on the putting green, launch a kayak onto Palma Sola Bay, or head to the community dock to catch one of the Gulf Coast's spectacular sunsets. A fitness center, billiards lounge, dog park, three tranquil ponds, outdoor gathering areas, and Key West-inspired architecture complete the relaxed resort-style setting. Back home, 1,854 square feet provides something increasingly hard to find in maintenance-free coastal living - room to actually live. Soaring ceilings and an open floor plan create an airy gathering space, while impact-resistant windows and doors offer added peace of mind. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous workspace, and a breakfast bar that keeps the kitchen connected to the living and dining areas. The split-bedroom design gives owners and guests their own sense of privacy. The spacious primary suite includes a large walk-in closet, spa-style bath, and private balcony, while two additional bedrooms offer plenty of room for visiting family and friends, a home office, or both. A second balcony, interior laundry, private storage, and two covered parking spaces add the practical conveniences that make both full-time and seasonal living easy. And when it's time to venture beyond the gates, some of West Bradenton's best experiences are minutes away - the beaches, restaurants, and island atmosphere of Anna Maria Island; kayaking and nature trails at Robinson Preserve; Palma Sola Botanical Park; and the waterfront recreation of Palma Sola Bay. For buyers who want a Florida home without the constant upkeep of a single-family property, Palma Sola Bay Club offers a compelling alternative - generous living space, resort-style amenities, a genuine sense of community, and the Gulf Coast lifestyle waiting just outside your door. This is an exceptional opportunity to make that lifestyle your own.
