Breathtaking vistas overlooking the Manatee River, the mangroves, and the Riviera Dunes Harbor from your new home. Wake up and step out onto your private third floor east facing balcony and watch the boats speeding on the river. You’ll see early morning fishermen anchor close by in the lagoon to caste their lines. Watch the wading birds in your “backyard”. Enjoy the scene from all three levels – you have 2 balconies and a ground-floor patio – even watch from the window in your master suite’s shower. Plus - you have direct boat access all the way to the Gulf from your included 50’ boat slip with its 'heavy-duty' lift. Later, check out the view from your home’s front west-facing windows to see the sky and the harbor turn red as the sun sets in the west. Best buy and biggest home on the Manatee River for under a million dollars with 2,800+ square feet in beautifully maintained community!
