With hurricane impact windows and over 30 feet of water views, this home makes you feel wonderfully connected to your new Florida lifestyle where the hardest decision of the day is whether to go boating out of one of the two on-site sailboat depth marinas (first come slips are $30/month or $35/month with an owner supplied lift), head out from the kayak launches on a kayak or paddleboard (storage is $25/year) or lounge on a pristine and uncrowded Gulf of Mexico beach easily accessed by one of the community's 3 beach accesses. Or perhaps you'd like to relax at one of the 2 heated pools (one is suitable for laps), have a fun game of tennis, challenge yourself to a pickle ball game with neighbors, or get in your steps at the fitness center then relax at the end of the day with friends around the fire pits or grill your catch of the day on the community BBQ grills.
