It’s time to make that long-deserved Florida vacation a reality at this spacious four-bedroom home, tucked into a central Bradenton neighborhood and conveniently located near everything you’ll need. You're just a few houses down from Wares Creek, where you can stroll along the waterfront park, feed the ducks, or rent a paddleboard or kayak and explore by water. Downtown’s restaurants and cafés are just a few blocks away, and it’s a straight shot down Manatee Avenue to the beach at Anna Maria Island, eight miles to your west. But with a private, oasis-like back yard and luxurious interior, you’ll probably never want to leave. Start the day with a cup of coffee on the shady lanai, ceiling fans gently whirring overhead to keep you cool. The lushly landscaped, half-acre lot features several giant royal palm trees, a brick patio, and sparkling in-ground pool, creating a private-resort feeling you'll love. Take a dip in the pool and relax on one of the waterside chaises before heading inside to make breakfast.
The lovely property itself is an early 1900s Spanish-style house that recently underwent a full renovation – so expect lots of character and charm plus all the modern amenities. Saltillo tiles and plush furnishings enhance the private villa feeling. The well-equipped, full kitchen makes meal prep easy, and there’s room for everyone at the table in the dining room, or grab a seat in the kitchen’s sunny, built-in breakfast nook. After a day of exploring – or just lounging by the pool – relax in the central AC. Get cozy on the tufted sofas in front of the wood-burning fireplace and watch a little TV before bed, or use the in-home WiFi to upload the day’s pics to social media. If you’re looking for more together time, grab a board game and step back out to the lanai to enjoy the evening breeze. At the end of the night, four comfortable bedrooms offer a sound night’s sleep, with the main bedroom offering another wood-burning fireplace. Drift off to sleep with one perfect vacation day behind you – and another in store for tomorrow.
