5130 TIDEWATER PRESERVE BOULEVARD This welcoming home sits by the water, the Manatee River that stretches out in the back of the house like an old friend you’ve known your whole life. Each day you get the gift of watching boats pass to and from.  The Gulf and its beaches are near where the white sand and warm Gulf waters welcome your toes.  If you’re a boater, this community offers a beautiful marina.  This house is a hop, skip and a jump to the marina where a slip awaits you, where you can hop on your boat for a quick adventure on the water.   Nature surrounds the place, making it feel like a world unto itself.  Inside, the ceilings are high, the kitchen is made for cooking, and the pantry is big enough to hide a few secrets. The counters are natural stone granite, and the island is long enough for creating meals while having conversations with family and friends. The kitchen is open to the family room and the lanai, both spaces offering you a place to relax after a long day. The rooms are big too, with space for everything you need. The master bedroom is made for comfort, with a closet so large you’ll get lost in it.  There is an office space, a perfect place for you to check things off of your productivity list along with an open dining room space... another wonderful place to make memories with family and friends.  There’s a laundry room with a sink, counter space for folding, and cabinets for all the things you want to store.  You’ll like the lanai. It’s perfect for coffee in the morning or a drink at night while you watch the boats and the wildlife pass by. The saltwater pool is there for you when you’ve had enough of the boat or the beach. After a day on the water, it’s the perfect place to cool off.  The garage is big enough for three cars, and the house is built to last, with hurricane shutters to give you peace of mind.  The community offers a marina, two clubhouses, dog parks and a pool that’s like something out of a dream. There’s a gym, a place to meet people, a kitchen for when you want to cook for a large number of guests, and a social room where the conversations flow as easy as the drinks. Outside, you have tennis courts and a canoe and kayaking launch, free for use. There’s even a nature trail along the river.  Tidewater Preserve is a gated community with a Gate Guard's presence 24/7. It is in an excellent location, the lawn’s always green, and there’s a lifestyle director to help make sure everything runs smooth. All of it’s here, in Tidewater Preserve, at a cost that won’t make you blink twice. No CDDs, no surprises.  Come see it. Feel it. And if it feels right, make it yours.
