Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
We have been coming to Florida for 30 years and whilst our main home is in Cornwall in the UK, , Bradenton is our second home and we spend between 18-20 weeks a year in our property which we purchased new late in 2005 when we retired. Brian had been the CEO of the international operations of an American multinational and a Consultant to major businesses in the oil and gas sector, whilst Kath spent 23 years running the family business. In addition to loving Florida we have good reasons to spend time here as our son his wife and our grandson moved to the US some years ago and are now US Citizens whilst our daughter, son in law and three other grandsons continue to live close by us in the UK.
Why the Owner Chose Bradenton
We love Bradenton and all the surrounding area has to offer. We love the closeness of the great beaches, the cultural amenities of the area and the general variety of things to do and enjoy. We particularly love our Community because of it size, 120 Units, ie.: it is not big and impersonal and it has a low rise profile, it's friendly and it's great location. Bradenton and Bay Pointe really are a wonderful places to live, relax and also have a great vacation .
It is readily accessible by air and highway alike.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
Bay Pointe offers everything you could wish for, it is close to the beaches, close to great shopping, surround by places of interest and provides a good location to go off and explore the many attractions and places of interest that are three hours or less away. We love the local Bonefish and Appleby's restaurants to name but two, there are many more to suit all tastes and appetites, but we especially like Tuesday nights at Appleby's where, after 10pm, Karaoke starts. We do not get up and sing but we enjoy those that do and there is some surprising talent around, or it seems that way after a couple of drinks especially when every hour is a 'happy hour'!
