Minto, Margaritaville Holdings plan island homes around a marina in Bradenton

Minto Communities and Margaritaville Holdings are developing a new deep water marina and adjacent homes on a 220-acre private island on Anna Maria Sound in Bradenton called Harbour Isle.

Minto and Margaritaville Holdings are developing 132 homes next to the marina with prices starting in the upper $400,000s.

The homes will range in size from 1,483 square feet to 1,650 square feet. Each will have two or three bedrooms, two or three bathrooms, a screened lanai, and views of Anna Maria Sound or the Harbour Isle lagoon.

Residents will have access to such  amenities as a 4,200-square-foot gym, a bar with a billiards area, and a swimming pool, plus private cabanas and a launch facility for owners of kayaks and paddleboards.

The residential development, called One Particular Harbour Margaritaville, will be the third at Harbour Isle. The first two, called Mangrove Walk and Edgewater Walk, sold out soon after they opened.

Construction of the marina at One Particular Harbour Margaritaville is scheduled for completion next spring.  The marina will have 55 wet slips, 128 dry slips and as much as 30,000 square feet of commercial spaces for a restaurant, entertainment and retail stores.

The marina will be equipped with floating docks and an enclosed vessel storage facility for boats as long as 42 feet.

Minto and Margaritaville Holdings also are developing a senior housing community in Daytona Beach called Latitude Margaritaville. [BuilderOnline.com] — Mike Seemuth
