837 Waterside Ln., Bradenton, FL 34209

Light, bright and totally refreshed with a strikingly lovely theme, this two-bedroom, turnkey furnished townhome overlooks the sunrise-drenched mangrove preserve and lagoon in Perico Bay Club. As an end unit, there’s almost twice as much light as the internal townhomes have. And the way this one is situated, close to the heated pool and spa, with back-door privacy afforded by the neatly trimmed vegetation, it’s close to ideal. One could make the downstairs bedroom the master quite easily. Or take the large upstairs bedroom with balcony and enjoy the large loft as a sitting area, office or craft room. The kitchen opens out into the living/dining area, which itself slides open to a full-length screened porch for your nature-loving enjoyment. There is plenty of room in the one-car garage for additional storage, and the private courtyard allows your personal gardening touch in making this condo as welcoming as can be. The condo association allows a one-month minimum rental and is pet friendly. With a secure entry, spanking new clubhouse, large pool and tennis facilities, Perico Bay Club makes the ideal place for an island lifestyle, with beautiful landscaping, a huge variety of birds, and the ability to launch your own canoe or kayak from the grounds. It’s all convenient to Anna Maria Island and its sandy beach charms, the Robinson and Neal Preserves, and an easy drive to mainland shopping, medical facilities and airports.
