IMPRESSIVE DETAILING is plentiful in this in this custom-built Sam Rodgers Platinum water view home.

Its 2600 square feet of living space has the best of everything for those that truly know the difference. The homeowners spared no expense in selecting the highest quality fixtures and fittings, from the plantation shutters and crown molding to the gourmet kitchens, both indoors and out. Never worry about putting up hurricane shutters, as the whole house is fitted with impact glass for complete peace of mind. Other lavish finishings include Medallion Valencia Maple Sesame raised panel cabinetry with burnt sienna glazing, custom closet organization systems, designer fans and lighting, and stunning low-maintenance landscaping. This home's superiority even goes beyond what the eye can see. The Sam Rodgers luxury brand itself is known for its superior quality and attention to detail. Their method of framing is wood studs rather than metal, solid core 8’ doors, CPVC plumbing versus plastic tubes, and the plywood roofing has a thermal aluminum backing for better insulation. Enjoy your lovely water view from the existing oversized lanai or put in your own pool, or even just take a short walk to the clubhouse and sprawling resort style community pool. Gran Paradiso community is replete with amenities, clubs, and activities to match a multitude of interests. It is golf cart friendly, has a state of the art fitness center and a variety of classes, locker rooms with both steam rooms and saunas, tennis, pickleball, crafting/hobby clubs, game groups, and so much more. This is the preeminent Florida lifestyle home and community for those that appreciate being immersed in comfortable opulence.

Atlanta Braves Ground Breaking
They have 16 months to finish to project.
NORTH PORT — It took local officials and Atlanta Braves executives more than two years to negotiate and finalize a plan to build a new spring training complex in North Port.
Now the team and construction crews have just 16 months to actually build it.
The race to the Braves’ first pitch in February 2019 officially began Monday when local officials and team executives formally broke ground on the site of the planned $100 million stadium complex in the West Villages.
Standing in the middle of what is now just a pasture off U.S. 41 and River Road, leaders hailed the project as a boon for North Port and the entire area and marveled at the transformation that must take place over the next year.
