348 Sapphire Lake Dr UNIT 202, Bradenton, FL 34209

Great location! Rarely available Harbour Grand Retreat at the end of a cul de sac in Mangrove Walk with excellent views of the lagoon, preserve and marina. This three bedroom three bath coach home is an end unit with no building next to it so you have great views of the water and Robinson Preserve. The observatory tower includes all of the infrastructure but was never completed. The owners were planning to retire here but there plans have changed. They had the builder Minto build the tower but not complete it because they did not want a hard to use spiral staircase. They had plans to design a custom staircase with a wide catwalk around the tower to enjoy the water views, preserve views and outstanding sunsets. Here is an opportunity to customize the observatory tower to fit your lifestyle and have a staircase that makes it easy to use while you enjoy the fantastic views! There is a deck off the retreat where you can watch the amazing bird life in the preserve with no homes across the street. There is also another private deck off the dining rooms with great views of the water. The home includes a dumbwaiter to bring your luggage and groceries up to the main level. The dumbwaiter can be removed from the elevator shaft and replaced by a new elevator. We have negotiated a special price with the elevator company with installation within a couple of weeks after closing with the new owner. There is a heated pool with a fire pit, barbecue area and kitchen only three buildings away. There is a bike and walking path right outside to loop around the lagoon or go up to the marina. East access down the main road to the 24,000 sq ft Beach club complete with a restaurant and bar, resort size heated pool, spa and a separate 4000 sq ft fitness center If you are looking for a great community and an award winning Harbour Grand Retreat home in a great location then here it is. Opportunity to make it special and customize the observatory and install a brand new elevator. The price reflects the cost to install the new elevator and finishing the observatory. Halo whole home water system is included. .
