Paradise of Sarasota has built custom homes throughout the Sarasota–Bradenton area for more than 30 years. This 4,000-square-foot, to-be-built residence is thoughtfully designed to showcase one of the last remaining preserve lots at The Islands. The plan includes 3 bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a private primary-suite enclave with its own entrance from the separate two-car garage. An additional one-car garage provides extra parking and storage. The bonus room features a closet and can easily serve as a 4th bedroom. A butler’s pantry conveniently connects the kitchen and formal dining room, while the spacious great room and game room offers inviting areas for gathering and entertaining. A generous lanai and pool area overlook the preserve, extending the home’s carefully planned living space outdoors. Because this home will be built to order, custom features can be incorporated to create a plan tailored to your needs. Call now for full details. One of the last remaining preserve homesites at The Islands is now available. The Islands on the Manatee River is a private, gated waterfront boating community surrounded by world-class golf courses and Florida’s natural beauty. Named “Best Community†in the Sarasota-Bradenton Parade of Homes for eight consecutive years, it has now released Rio Vista Estates, its final neighborhood of highly sought-after homesites directly on the Manatee River. Exclusive to residents, the River Lodge clubhouse offers a welcoming riverfront gathering place. Set across 225 acres of pristine private islands, this exceptional sanctuary features estate-sized homesites where natural beauty is only the beginning.
