What the Seller Loves "What I will miss most is the morning. Sitting on the lanai with a cup of coffee, the preserve behind us and the water in front of us, there is no noise except the birds and the occasional boat heading out to the bay. The palms give this property a feeling that is completely unique. We chose this location within MiraBay very deliberately, and it delivered everything we hoped it would. The outdoor kitchen made every weekend feel like an event, and the boat lift meant Tampa Bay was never more than a few minutes away. Watching the sunset over the preserve from the balcony never got old. This home was built to be lived in fully, and we did exactly that."
