When you picture yourself living the beach lifestyle, what do you see? Do you see yourself in a quaint but vibrant town on the Gulf of Mexico with beautiful white sandy beaches? Do you see yourself sitting on your patio or balconies feeling the breeze from the intra-coastal, watching the dolphin, seabirds, and boats go by? Is home your refuge and yet also your jumping off place for exploring the surrounding areas where you will find nationally ranked sports teams, world class museums, award winning restaurants, live entertainment, and so much more? If so, welcome to the Village of Paradise Island. As you drive in on the recently pavered street past the lush landscaping, your condo awaits. Directly on the water, it provides you with the comfort of home throughout its 3 levels. Your eyes are drawn to the water view as soon as you step into the open design of the living/dining/kitchen area. Updated kitchen is complete with wood cabinets, quartz countertops, all stainless steel appliances, pantry, island with wine cooler, all for a true culinary experience. You will appreciate the convenience of the updated half bath on this level as well as the wood plank ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen, dining area, and bath. Enjoy many moments on the covered balcony from the living area. The split bedroom plan on the next level affords you plenty of space and privacy. Master bedroom with its balcony overlooking the water with soaring cedar plank ceiling, custom fitted walk-in closet and the large beautifully updated master bath with shower and separate tub will delight you. You really have to see the bathroom to appreciate the loving care that went into its design. The guest bedroom also has a private bath for your family or your visiting friends. Add to all that, a bonus space and a waterfront covered patio on the ground floor behind the garage. There are 2 community pools with covered gazebo areas and a community fishing/day use dock. Currently there is a waiting list for boat slips which have water and power, but boat lifts are not allowed. Right next door is the city’s Treasure Bay Golf & Tennis which offers a 9 hole par 3 golf course, clay & asphalt tennis courts, volleyball court, basketball court, shuffleboard, horseshoe pits, and playground for all your outdoor fun activities. Close to downtown St. Petersburg, a quick jaunt over the Sunshine Skyway bridge to Bradenton-Sarasota, and convenient to major international airports. Come see for yourself!
