Inside, a light-filled open floor plan showcases the “signature touch†Neal Homes is known for—voluminous ceilings, tray details, plantation shutters, and a gourmet kitchen designed for both entertaining and daily comfort. The kitchen features stone countertops, premium cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, an induction oven, and a built-in cooktop. The spacious screened lanai extends your living space outdoors, inviting you to relax and enjoy tranquil water and nature views during Florida’s beautiful evenings. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering double walk-in closets, calming views, and a spa-inspired bathroom designed for relaxation. Additional highlights include low insurance costs, no flood zone (approximately 30 feet above sea level), no CDD fees, and a low HOA that includes the privately gated entrance—making this home as practical as it is beautiful. River Wind is a Neal Signature–built community of just 62 homes, tucked away off Upper Manatee River Road—so hidden that even many locals don’t know it exists. Residents enjoy scenic walking trails, preserved natural surroundings, and a peaceful connection to the Manatee River. This home also includes three high-end kayaks, perfect for enjoying the local launches, fishing, or soaking in the quiet beauty of the river. Conveniently located in one of Manatee County’s most desirable areas, River Wind offers easy access to shopping, dining, Lakewood Ranch, Downtown Bradenton, I-75, and the white-sand beaches of Anna Maria Island, all within a short drive. Homeowners here know they’ve invested in a quality home built to stand the test of Florida living.
