Modern Luxe Riverside Paradise

The ideal snowbird retreat. Enjoy the relaxation of life on the river. Wake every morning to the sight of dolphins playing in the river, pelicans diving for a fish, wild peacocks strolling across the yard, and very frequently, a rocket arcing across the sky.

This 3000+sf 4/3 on the Banana River is located on over a half-acre, shaded by Spanish moss-draped oaks. Just remodeled and newly furnished, this seasonal rental offers a modern organic interior with tons of natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows, sliders, and skylights.

Lounge on a down-filled sectional in the great room to watch your favorite shows on a 55" smart TV, or sit in the comfy swivel chairs & enjoy the view. The spacious patio, accessible through wall-to-wall sliders, creates an inviting indoor/outdoor living space.

The minimalist kitchen is graced with natural quartzite counters and backsplash, all new appliances, including an electric range, an island oven, a built-in microwave, a counter-depth refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a wine cooler.

Giant picture windows in the master bedroom offer serene river views. Grab a book & relax on the chaise. Step through the full-light French doors to the master patio. The spacious ensuite master bath gives you the choice of a soaking tub and a dual showerhead walk-in shower.

The second master has ensuite access to the guest bath, in a Scandinavian modern style, with a black marble floating vanity, backlit LED mirror, and wood-look tile shower with an ample river view.

The remaining two bedrooms (one of which is used as an exercise room) share a Jack ‘n Jill bath with dual sinks in a carerra marble-topped vanity and shower with both rain shower and handheld shower heads.

A perfect setting for a relaxing retreat.

Rates are under the drop down menu; they include utilities, lawn care, and a monthly cleaning service.

Area Information

A little-known treasure, South Merritt Island is a narrow island between the Banana and Indian Rivers. This location, south of Pineda Causeway and north of Mathers Bridge, is among the most sought-after neighborhoods in Brevard County. A wildlife sanctuary, it's home to Peacocks, Blue Herons, Egrets, Ibis, Osprey, Woodpeckers, Blue Jays, Bald Eagles, various ducks and waterfowl. At its narrowest point, it is less than the width of a football field. It widens out further north, eventually becoming Cape Canaveral. South Tropical Trail is a favorite path for bikers and a stroll down the trail at sunset is always a visual feast.

The lush landscape, with old oaks and beautiful homes, feels away from it all, but is just five minutes from shops and services on the mainland and the barrier islands beaches of Satellite Beach, Cocoa Beach, and Cape Canaveral.

Florida’s Space Coast is an ideal setting where you can find uncrowded beaches, great boating, fishing, and water sports, nature trails, shopping, and fine dining. The Melbourne regional airport is 20 minutes away, the Orlando airport is less than an hour away and Orlando theme parks (Disney, Epcot, Universal etc. are about an hour away.
