Property Description

**BOATER’S PARADISE – RARE DIRECT ACCESS RIVERFRONT WITH EXCELLENT WATER FRONTAGE**

Welcome to a truly exceptional waterfront retreat—rarely available and magnificently restored Key West–style home offering over 100 feet of direct-access river frontage with no HOA fees or restrictions. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street, this private oasis delivers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the Manatee River from your own backyard.

Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the private 120 foot long dock equipped with electric, water, and a brand-new 16,000 lb boat lift—providing effortless access to the river, Tampa Bay, the Gulf of Mexico, and nearby waterfront dining. Enjoy unforgettable sunsets and even fireworks displays right from your dock.

This home seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury. Original details such as glass doorknobs, clawfoot tubs, pine hardwood floors, crown molding, wainscoting, French doors, and intricate woodwork are complemented by thoughtful upgrades throughout. The spacious interior boasts soaring 10-foot and vaulted ceilings, filling the home with natural light and an airy coastal feel.

The fully updated kitchen features 42” cabinetry, new granite countertops, KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, custom lighting, tile backsplash, and new tile flooring and is adjacent to a quaint semi private sitting area which is perfect as a reading or relaxing place.

Step outside and experience true Florida living with multiple outdoor spaces, including three covered porches, a second-floor observation/sunning deck, and a stunning newly resurfaced heated pool with an electric heater and gas spa. A unique copper outdoor shower adds to the resort-style ambiance.

The 1 bedroom renovated pool house with a private bathroom offers incredible flexibility—ideal as a guest suite, fourth bedroom, home office, or studio.

Designed for comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind, the home includes:

* Hurricane-impact windows and doors throughout
* Whole-home generator with 500-gallon owned propane tank and smartphone control
* Solar panel system with app monitoring
* Whole-home security system with cameras and remote access
* Mosquito Nix misting system for full perimeter coverage

The fully fenced property is lushly landscaped with tropical plantings including pineapple, banana, coconut, lemon, lime, and mango trees—creating your own private paradise.

Located in the historic city of Manatee, you are very close to the Bradenton Riverwalk and just minutes to downtown Bradenton’s vibrant restaurants, bars, and farmers market. Enjoy a quick 5-minute boat ride to Pier 22, easy access to I-75, and proximity to top-rated schools such as St. Stephen’s and IMG Academy.
