Beautiful waterfront condo with highly coveted DOCK & BOAT LIFT in the 44 acre sanctuary of The Islands at Dixie Shores! Currently under renovation due to Hurricane Idalia. HOA fees cover insurance, and the renovation process is being managed by the HOA. There is still time to customize your condo with selections and upgrades, which is scheduled to start the 1st week of January! Pictures are prior to the storm. Enjoy direct access to Dixie Bay, Salt River and the Gulf of Mexico, as well as to nature's beauties...endless birds, manatees, dolphins, fish and scallops! Relaxed living is echoed by the HOA, as they handle flood and hazard insurance, lawn maintenance and irrigation, exterior pest control and exterior building maintenance. They also include cable, internet and trash! This spacious open floorplan has spectacular sunrise, sunsets and water views from every room, and an expansive patio overlooking the canal. The master bedroom is extra roomy and offers lots of natural light! This home has smart technology, including a NEST thermostat and Lutron lighting system. The kitchen is inviting and upgraded with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. You will find plenty of space in the laundry room for a 2nd refrigerator and extra storage. The corral outside is perfect for your bikes and kayaks too! A new metal roof was installed by the HOA in 2022. With the heated community pool, tennis courts (pickleball is coming soon!) and a community clubhouse, as well as being minutes away from many shops, restaurants, grocery stores, local hangouts, airboat, fishing, kayaking and adventure companies, you can create incredible memories whether you live here full time or enjoy it as a vacation home!
