River Wilderness in Parrish : Spacious Homes for Sale w/ Golf & More

The Golf and Country Club of River Wilderness in Parrish has been one of the most attractive residential communities of Manatee County since the early 1980s.

This semiprivate country club offers more than just the golf lifestyle; it also features 150 acres of pristine Florida nature, a diversity of amenities and great quality of life.

Located on the northeastern section of the Manatee River and less than 10 miles from Downtown Bradenton, River Wilderness offers architectural designs that range from Florida ranch-style homes to Mediterranean estates.

The typical floor plans at River Wilderness are spacious in terms of lot size and interior space.  A three-bedroom and three bathroom Florida ranch-style property built in the late 1980s may feature 3,406 square feet of interior space.  Homes that have been more recently built in the Mediterranean style tend to be smaller but more space-efficient.

Pricing at River Wilderness can range from $230K for two-bedroom homes to more than $450K for the four-bedroom estates with lake views.

At one point, River Wilderness mostly attracted golf enthusiasts and retirees; these days, however, families are more likely to take up residence due to the amenities, security and convenience of the country club.

The 18-hole golf course is one of the few in Southwest Florida that are certified by the Audubon Society to be friendly to birds and other wildlife species.  Other amenities include: heated swimming pool, elegant clubhouse, tennis courts, small boat ramp, nature trails, fitness center, spa, and a multi-purpose exercise room for group classes.

In terms of convenience, neighbors of River Wilderness do not have to drive far to reach the nearby shopping centers, and the Ellenton Premium Outlets are only two miles away.

Although River Wilderness is a large neighborhood, available listings do not come on the market as often as home buyers wish.  For this reason, prospective homeowners should work closely with their real estate professionals to improve their chances of living here.
