The largest floor plan in The Tides, a true 3-bedroom design, and a peaceful green-space setting—this one stands apart.
If you’ve been waiting for a larger condo in Sweetwater by Del Webb that doesn’t feel like a compromise, 11822 Surfbird Circle is one you’ll want to see in person.
Offered at $283,900, this upper-level Cormorant floor plan offers approximately 1,857 square feet, 3 true bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a 1-car garage, and an expansive screened lanai overlooking wide green space.
This is one of the most sought-after layouts in The Tides—and once you walk through it, you’ll understand why. It lives larger, brighter, and more comfortably than most condos in this price range.
The Cormorant Floor Plan: Why Buyers Wait for This One
Not all condo floor plans are created equal. Some feel tight or limiting. This one doesn’t.
The Cormorant model is the largest layout in The Tides and one of the few that truly offers three full bedrooms—each with a closet. No compromises. No “flex space pretending to be a bedroom.”
Once upstairs, everything is on one level, giving you the ease of single-level living with the added privacy of an upper unit.
With vaulted ceilings, an open-concept layout, and generous room sizes throughout, the home feels open, airy, and comfortable from the moment you walk in.
A Kitchen That Actually Feels Like the Heart of the Home
In many condos, the kitchen feels like an afterthought. That’s not the case here.
This home features an oversized kitchen with abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large center island that gives you real workspace—not just something decorative.
There’s even a built-in desk with a window, which makes a great spot for managing everyday tasks or staying connected without feeling tucked away.
Whether you're cooking for yourself or entertaining guests, this kitchen is designed to be used and enjoyed.
Expansive Lanai with Peaceful Green-Space Views
One of the most noticeable differences about this home is what you see when you step outside.
The large screened lanai overlooks open green space framed by mature trees, giving you a sense of privacy that’s hard to find in condo living.
Instead of looking directly into another building, you have space, light, and a more relaxed, natural setting. There’s even a glimpse of the pond across the street, adding to the feeling of openness without the noise that often comes with direct waterfront units.
This is the kind of setting where you actually want to sit, relax, and enjoy your morning coffee.
Well-Maintained and Move-In Ready
Some homes show well in photos. Others show even better in person because of how well they’ve been cared for.
This condo is very, very well maintained, and that comes through the moment you walk in.
- New refrigerator (2023)
- New HVAC system (October 2022)
- New water heater (2023)
- Washer and dryer replaced (2023)
- Frameless glass shower door installed
- Crown molding and upgraded baseboards
These are the kinds of updates that make ownership easier from day one—without a long to-do list waiting for you.
A Flexible 3-Bedroom Layout That Adapts to Your Life
This floor plan works because it gives you options.
The third bedroom includes a closet, making it ideal for guests, a hobby space, or a true office. It currently features French doors, so it can function as a den while still easily converting back to a traditional bedroom if needed.
The split-bedroom layout provides privacy for both owners and guests, while the open living and dining areas create a comfortable central space to gather.
