Further excitement in the real estate market can be generated if there are more property offerings like those found at The Links at Greenfield Plantation. It brings the affordability and the homeownership perks that can contribute to a livelier property market. Located in Bradenton, Florida, this community is nestled in a lush natural environment that at the same time enjoys proximity to the facilities and services demanded by an urban lifestyle.

The Links complex is ideally situated in an area straddling crossroads to many of the population and activity centers of Manatee County in Florida. Among the main entries and exits to the community is via Interstate 75. Just some two miles away to the south is Sarasota City and less than 45 minutes to the north are the cosmopolitan areas of St. Petersburg and Tampa. The urban amenities, life and leisure options in these areas thereby boost further those that can be found within the city of Bradenton. Fabulous resort-style activities can likewise be accessed at the nearby Sarasota Bay and its offshore barrier islands or keys, many of which are only some twenty-five minutes away.

More significantly, the Links complex itself presents the many pleasures and privileges desirable in real estate property choices. The community has a new clubhouse providing excellent facilities and services for both golfers and non-golfers. The experience of hospitality at its best can be had at the Snack Bar where club members and guests can partake in fresh salad servings, hot and delicious soups, hot and cold sandwiches, plus daily specials and an assortment of drinks and beverages. Amid comfortable appointments, clubhouse visitors also have access to a large screen projection TV for the latest events and happenings. Additionally, the clubhouse has a dazzling community pool accented by sunny and spacious decks that can accommodate plenty of social activities.

The Links at Greenfield Plantation Golf Course

The star of the show at The Links would certainly be its golf course meandering through fascinating marshlands and lakes which has become a habitat for local wildlife and birds endemic to the natural Florida environment. Human presence at the course is definitely as welcoming with the club’s “Open to the Public” guest policy. The standard daily fee is an affordable $55 rate for tee offs from 7 a.m. till about noontime.

Tackling this 18-hole, par 72 course with a 128 slope rating involves a fairly challenging play for 6,719 yards from the longest tees. Opened in 1998, The Links at Greenfield Plantation was a creation by Chip Power, a noted course designer. His design requires judicious golf club choice to effectively tackle the expansive bunkers and intriguing water hazards at each hole. Four sets of tees were incorporated into the layout to accommodate players of all skill levels.

The Links provides ample support for golfers to solve the enigma in its layout. It has an extensive area for putting practice as well as a unique aqua range with floating targets that can help improve driving accuracy. Moreover, the mentoring services of an in-house golf pro with PGA and extensive coaching credentials are available. Tips on the right golf clubs and other essentials can be accessed at the friendly pro shop. Additionally, play has been made more interesting with the recent club acquisition of ParView GPS. This technology on global positioning enables instantaneous golfer access to distancing, graphic hole and green overviews, and pro tips.
