Whether you’re seeking a cozy, convenient, year-round dwelling or an immaculate seasonal home, the penthouse condo No. 506 in Riverview, 2333 Indian River Blvd., neatly fills the bill.
An elevator whooshes you to the fifth/penthouse floor, where an exterior walkway leads the few steps to your door.
Inside, sand-hued, diagonally placed ceramic tile flooring sweeps through the central spaces – kitchen, dining room, living room – while white chair rail, baseboard and crown molding offset neutral walls of soft taupe, dove and gold, creating a restful ambiance.
Left from the entrance, the tidy, enclosed, nicely updated kitchen sports stainless steel appliances and double basin sink, while touches of black in the built-in range and microwave add contrast to the gold, oak-look cabinetry, soft taupe walls and mottled black/gray/cream granite countertops and backsplash.
Above the sink, a high, four-bulb light bar and a window with Venetian blinds provide illumination.
A convenient passthrough connects kitchen and dining space. Next to the passthrough on the dining room side, a trio of small, square, recessed display shelves offer decor possibilities. A graceful, three-light chandelier defines the dining area.
Further on, the living room features a white ceiling fan and opens, via glass sliders, to the sunroom, where there is another ceiling fan and full, floor-to-ceiling glass wall. The view takes in an inspiring vista that includes the palm-lined boulevard, rooftops of the waterfront Vero Isles neighborhood across the boulevard, and enticing glimpses of the shining river.
You will most certainly want to grab that first coffee of the day and sip it here in the sunroom, your personal front row seat to the endless, everchanging series of color-filled Florida sunrises.
Afternoon naps, reading, cell phone catch-up, list making and unwinding in the evening are other likely activities.
The bedrooms both offer long green views, ceiling fans, two bi-fold door closets and toes-friendly carpet. The primary features an alcove between the closets, perfect for a dresser and tabletop TV.
Between the bedrooms are two stylish bathrooms, both with single, sunken-basin, cabinet vanities, and large rectangular framed mirrors. One bathroom offers a walk-in shower, the other a tub/shower.
The Riverview condominium community is situated in a million-dollar location “between the bridges,” just a couple of blocks from all the Miracle Mile stores and restaurants, including Publix and Fresh Market, and a five-minute drive from Cleveland Clinic Indian River and all the medical offices that surround it. Vero’s famous Village by the Sea is likewise a mere five minutes away, just across the arched Merrill Barber Bridge with its vast and dreamy river views.
On the island you will find casual and fine dining, ranging from hamburger and taco stands to sophisticated French cuisine and fantastic seafood, along with beach shops and elite boutiques, live theater, an outstanding fine art museum, a USTA-run municipal tennis center, resorts, country clubs, parks, marinas and miles of clean, uncrowded Atlantic Ocean beaches with lifeguards stationed at popular swimming spots.
