Welcome to The Waterside Escape, a standout gem in the exclusive, 24-hour guard-gated Tidewater Preserve community—a riverfront paradise where luxury meets versatility. Priced to impress as the best value in the neighborhood, this immaculate 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers a unique feature that sets it apart: a private mother-in-law suite with its own entrance. Perfect for multi-generational living, an adult child, visiting friends, or family, this thoughtfully designed wing elevates this property into a one-of-a-kind retreat. Tucked away on the first floor, the mother-in-law suite is a spacious, self-contained haven with its own wing and open floorplan. Featuring a separate entrance for ultimate privacy, this versatile space is ideal for guests, extended family, or even a home office or studio. Paired with the home’s elegant design—high soaring ceilings, graceful arched doorways, and premium tile and luxury vinyl flooring (no carpet!)—this suite adds a layer of functionality that’s hard to find. Beyond the suite, the main home dazzles with an open-concept layout perfect for entertaining. The chef’s dream kitchen is the heart of it all, boasting sleek stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, a generous island, and ample cabinetry—ready for everything from casual dinners to grand gatherings. Flowing seamlessly into the great room and dining area, this space opens to an extended lanai through oversized glass sliders, where lush tropical views create your own private oasis. Sip coffee at sunrise or toast the sunset in a setting that feels like a permanent vacation. Retreat to the luxurious master suite, a royal escape with soaring ceilings, expansive walk-in closets, and a spa-like en-suite. Relax in the soaking tub, refresh in the oversized shower, or enjoy the dual vanities—all framed by tranquil views with no neighbors in front or back. Nestled along the Manatee River, Tidewater Preserve delivers a resort-style lifestyle: a private marina with Gulf access, a heated pool at The Lodge, a fitness center, tennis courts, kayaks, and a dog park—all surrounded by scenic nature trails. Maintenance-free landscaping (included in HOA fees) keeps the lush exterior pristine, while the paved driveway welcomes you home. Plus, you’re just minutes from I-75, top dining, shopping, beaches, healthcare, and airports. With its rare mother-in-law suite, luxurious finishes, and unbeatable location, The Waterside Escape is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle tailored to you. Don’t miss your chance to own this waterfront treasure.
