3 acres private 4 bed, 4 bath ranch, unusually huge lanai, heated pool, grill!

Gorgeous 3500 sf riverfront home on 3 lush acres with tropical landscaping. You will have use of the private dock and lift and can boat from our place out to the Gulf. This one of a kind brick ranch style home is perfect for those that value privacy, love the water, enjoy gardens, and desire space inside and out. Traditional style one story home has enough space to host a larger family or group. There are 2 ensuites with beautiful private baths (4 total bedrooms), 2 living areas (one has queen sized sofa bed), 2 eating areas inside, one outside) heated pool and jacuzzi with lovely very large screened in area overlooking the river. There are a total of 5 big screen smart televisions. The beauty of the Little Manatee River is nicely captured from many rooms inside the house through lots of windows. One of the master suites has its very own private sitting room and a very large marble bathroom with a large jetted soaker tub, makeup desk, double sinks with quartz countertops and a large marble shower. All beds throughout the house get raving reviews for comfort.

You will enjoy gorgeous sunrises as well as sunsets over the river. You may see dolphins, manatee, tropical birds, jumping fish, and other wildlife from the master bedroom, family room, breakfast nook, pool area, or while sitting on the dock. The dining area has an electric fireplace for a relaxing ambiance. The French doors lead to a wonderful outdoor Mecca with a lovely heated pool and jacuzzi, both with waterfalls, multiple seating areas, a large eating area, a gas fire pit, and a very nice large gas grill. There is a long palm lined ashphalt driveway with lovely tropical landscaped yard and beautiful night time lighting, suitable for royalty. We have 3 kayaks and one paddle board you can launch onto the river. This is a perfect place for the fisherman, outdoor lover, boater, and nature seeker. Many memories will be made here. You will not be disappointed in this truly beautiful Florida property...bound to surpass your expectations, guests frequently say the photos truly don’t do justice to this amazong one of a kind place. Beds sleep 8 plus a sofa bed for 2 additional sleepers.

A slice of heaven!
This amazing property is a slice of heaven! Everything you need at your fingertips! From relaxing to fishing off the pier to swimming in the pool, our family enjoyed every moment! If you are a fisherman, we caught sting ray, shark, snapper, catfish, lady fish, and a few other species! Dolphin almost everyday! Highly recommend for family fun!! The owners were amazing and very welcoming!

FABULOUS MONTH WITH FRIENDS IN A BEAUTIFUL SETTING !
It’s hard to know where to start. We spent a month with friends at Bob and Jackie's riverside home. The beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is stocked with every imaginable appliance with plenty of cookware and supplies. The heated pool and hot tub were an exquisite treat every day, the peaceful setting on the river was relaxing, and everything is there for a fabulous vacation at home away from home. Did I mention regular dolphin sightings from the living room and lanai? Or, seeing sunrise colors across the sky while working at the desk in the master bedroom? To top it off, communication with Bob and Jackie was seamless – they were always available to help with information on area activities and questions about the numerous amenities their home offers. Throughout the month, several friends visited for long weekends, and we created countless memories cooking out by the pool, watching movies, and playing board games at the large dining room table. Of note is a nearby private community (Riverside) with a golf club and restaurant - both available to the public. There are pickleball courts at Apollo Beach (about 20 minutes away) and a fitness center within about 20 minutes (WORX) that we joined for the month. We recommend Bob and Jackie’s home for family reunions, groups of friends, sibling trips, etc.

Loved it!
Everything was exactly as advertised plus! So many extras you don't normally find in a vacation rental. It was more than we hoped for. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. We will definitely return.

Quiet Remote Getaway
We had a very relaxing stay. So quiet and away from the busy city.. But not so remote that you cant get to a grocery store or restaurants within 10 minutes. The house has pretty much everything you need. We stayed during the first week of December and the home was decorated for Christmas, even down to the dishes and cups. The temps dipped into the low/mid 70s and the heated pool/hot tub was perfect. Beautiful home. We look forward to going back.
