5614 Palmer Cir

A low-rise, resort-style condominium community completed in 2020, the Verandas at Lakewood National consists of two-story buildings arranged around lakes and Arnold Palmer–designed golf fairways within a gated neighborhood in Bradenton/Lakewood Ranch. Residences are veranda-style units with first- and second-floor plans that commonly feature open, split-bedroom layouts, high and vaulted ceilings, tray ceilings, crown molding, built-in smart-home thermostats, solid-surface and stone counters, and large walk-in closets. Many units include dual screened lanais or porches with water or course views, detached one-car garages, and flexible dens that serve as offices or third sleeping areas. Exterior elements emphasize low-maintenance tropical living: landscaped grounds with irrigation, sidewalks, rain gutters, hurricane shutters, storage and sliding-glass access to private porches; community courts for tennis, pickleball and bocce; and on-site tennis lighting. The gated community delivers extensive shared amenities centered on recreation and social life — bundled golf membership to two 18-hole championship courses, a large clubhouse with dining, resort-style pools and tiki bar, a full-service spa, a 24-hour fitness center with classes and trainers, and separate neighborhood pools for Verandas residents. Managed landscaping, 24-hour security, and policies that permit rentals and pets (subject to HOA rules) support maintenance-free ownership while placing residents within easy driving distance of I-75, UTC shopping, downtown Waterside and Gulf beaches.
