Surprising Value in Feather Sound Makes Condos a Prime Choice for Buyers

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.
