Surprising Value in Feather Sound Makes Condos a Prime Choice for Buyers
With Clearwater's Feather Sound real estate prices so high, demand for codominium value is escalalating rapidly.
Clearwater, FL (PRWEB) July 7, 2005 -- Feather Sound has long been recognized
as one of Clearwater’s most desirable neighborhoods. The pristine golf course,
winding trails through the bird sanctuary and nature preserve wetlands along
with a prime location close to shopping, beaches, downtown culture and two
international airports keep Feather Sound properties in high demand.
With
single-family homes in the area starting at over $350,000 and spiraling up over
a million dollars, buyers looking for value in Feather Sound are turning to
condominiums.
Condominium communities in the area
include Crystal Bay, Bordeaux Village, and Feather Pointe. Another development,
Audubon Condominium, was completely sold out in May. The newest community is The
Club at Feather Sound, a condominium conversion project from Ceebraid-Signal
Corporation.
“What first attracted me to The Club was
the Feather Sound location. It’s convenient to everything,” says Diane
Tamasovich who recently purchased a residence at The Club. “I wanted a gated
community with great amenities, lovely landscaping and a residence that was
home-like,” adds Tamasovich. “After searching for three months, I found it at
The Club, along with a fountain view and a roomy floor plan with new carpeting,
new paint – even a new air conditioner and water heater.”
Having
recently moved to the bay area, Tamasovich said she wanted to own rather than
rent and liked Ceebraid’s approach to condominium conversion. “They make
residences in new locations with different views available all the time so
there’s always a fresh choice. Although I didn’t buy the first week they opened,
I was able to get a just-released condo at a just-released price. That worked
great for me!”
Overall value at The Club is the reason one of the sales
agents at the community bought a condominium there himself. “I’m a Tampa native
and I know that Feather Sound is the ideal place to live,” says James Liles. “As
a specialist in condominium sales I’ve compared many developments. I was ready
to quit renting and didn’t want high-rise living. I chose The Club as my primary
residence because it’s only two-stories high and offers outstanding amenities
and excellent floor plans. After Ceebraid completes the capital improvements, I
know I’ll get the best return on my investment from The Club’s lifestyle,
location and appreciation.”
The appeal of
Feather Sound gave the Christopoulos family the incentive to purchase a
second-home residence at The Club. “I did the legwork for my parents who live in
Cape Cod. When they’re not here at the condo, my two brothers and their families
will take advantage of the community,” says Angelo Christopoulos, who lives in a
Tampa suburb. “Feather Sound will be ideal for my parents. It gives you easy
access to all the major bridges in the area. Restaurants and shopping centers
are close by, too.”
The family was also impressed with the six month
free membership to the Tierra Verde Boat Club that comes as a gift to owners at
The Club. “That was a very nice perk I know we’ll enjoy,” notes Christopoulos.
“It’s a great way to introduce people to the area. I know my folks will love the
boating.”
Don Egnor, director of sales at The Club, says, “The gift
package of prepaid initiation fees along with six months of prepaid dues at the
nearby Tierra Verde Boat Club is an added attraction our buyers are really
appreciating, They also like the golf course, lake or fountain views throughout
the community.”
Already more than 70% sold out, The Club’s two-bedroom,
two-bath residences span up to 1185 square feet under air. The four floor plans
include sitting rooms or sun rooms as well as screened lanais. Prices start in
the $160s.
In keeping with the Feather Sound
lifestyle, amenities on site at The Club are impressive. The spacious clubhouse
includes a complete fitness center, cyber café with Wi-Fi Internet service and a
plasma TV, indoor basketball, a juice bar as well as a great room and kitchen
for entertaining. Just outside is a tropically landscaped sun deck and barbeque
area, a swimming pool and spa and a tennis court. A putting green and trails to
the nearby Bird Sanctuary and Nature Preserve are also on site. Concierge
service and garages are available.
Formerly Pelican Landing, The Club is
undergoing a major transformation, from site renewal to redevelopment of the
residences, common areas and landscaping. Phase One owners can expect occupancy
in early Fall.
The Sales Center for The Club at Feather Sound is located
at 1985 Pelican Landing Blvd. in Clearwater. Four furnished models are available
for viewing. Visitors are welcome from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, 10 a.m. to 5
p.m. on Saturday and from 12 Noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
