Experience Gulf Front Coastal Living
Welcome to Burnt Store Marina & Country Club, a quiet, gated resort community on the shores of the Gulf of America. Enjoy luxury waterfront lifestyle in this 2,234 square foot ‘wedge’ style corner condominium located within Grande Isles Tower III on prestigious Prosperity Point…a separate safe and private double-gated island situated in the middle of Burnt Store Marina's North and South basins.
Upon entering Grande Isle III #307, the 4th level of the 8 story building, your first sight is the sweeping western views over Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf of America through the great room wall of floor to ceiling windows. A sliding door leads to a large tiled lanai with patio furniture.
Imagine closing each day on your private lanai with a breathtaking sunset over an endless water view while sharing an intimate meal and a glass of wine. See the twinkling lights of Boca Grande on Gasparilla Island in the distance from the 4th floor of Grande Isle III, the final building project constructed in Burnt Store Marina. During the day, the view just below your lanai includes the daily parade of watercraft entering and leaving the marina north basin, some on their way to nearby islands like Captiva, Gasparilla and Cayo Costa or through the Boca Grande Pass. The attractive amenities area can be seen from your private lanai that include the sundeck/pool, hot tub and BBQ grilling area.
The condo is completely furnished and fully equipped with everything you'll need for your vacation. All the conveniences of home, it is completely turn key, you won't need a thing. Be among the few to occupy this condo since putting it in the rental program. This residence only has been lightly used as a vacation home.
