The Concession Golf Club and Residences |
|
The Concession Golf Club and Residences is ideally located on Florida's Gulf Coast, an area that has long enjoyed a reputation as a vacation getaway for the rich and famous. Everything about the area simply enhances the unique lifestyle of The Concession. Over 35 miles of coastline and a temperate year 'round climate are the perfect ingredients for boating, fishing and waterfront activities. Shopping and professional services are just beyond The Concession entrance at Lakewood Ranch. Nearby Sarasota boasts a vibrant arts and culture scene, top-rated universities and excellent medical facilities. For world-class shopping, dining and entertainment, nothing compares to the upscale St. Armands Circle unless it's stylish Venice Main Street or downtown Sarasota. Getting around the area is easy, too. The Concession is just minutes from I-75 and the Sarasota-Bradenton Airport.
On the final hole of the 1969 Ryder Cup, Jack Nicklaus stunned the golf world by conceding a two-foot putt to Tony Jacklin, for the only tie in history. That gesture has inspired one of America's great residential country clubs, The Concession located on Florida's Gulf Coast. Here amid ancient oak hammocks, only 236 magnificent homes will grace the 1,200-acre reserve. This extraordinarily private community will be a worthy complement to the unique experience of The Concession Golf Club and its Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course.
Exclusivity and luxury define the residences of The Concession. Only 236 golf and custom estate homes are planned for the 1,200 virgin acres of century-old oaks, towering pines and protected wetlands. Over half of The Concession homesites are at least an acre, ensuring a stately, private setting for grand estate living. The Concession neighborhoods include Nicklaus Manor, a private enclave of just 33 homes, ownership of which includes a Full Signature Membership and optional private concierge service. The neighborhoods of Birkdale and Lindrick, comprised of custom estate homes on sites ranging from one-half to two acres, offer serene lake and preserve views.
Every amenity associated with the grand tradition of the world's most privileged golf clubs will be found in The Concession Golf Clubhouse. Paying homage to the traditional values and history of golf, the clubhouse will be filled with memorabilia of legendary golf personalities, events and tournaments including the 1969 Ryder Cup Game from which The Concession derives its unique character. Members will enjoy a full calendar of club tournaments, social events and programs throughout the year.
Set among towering oaks, the Golf Clubhouse will be the social center for The Concession. Spacious verandas and voluminous windows throughout overlook the golf course and shimmering lake views. Here, members and their guests can enjoy formal and casual dining, private dining rooms, card rooms, an extensive Pro Shop and men's and women's locker rooms outfitted to provide everything the serious golfer requires.
