Description

Rare opportunity to own a private, tree-lined retreat on nearly half an acre in the heart of Manatee County, where space, flexibility, and location come together in a way that's hard to find at this price point. This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on an expansive .48-acre lot and has been lovingly maintained with meaningful updates throughout, including a brand new roof (2025), fresh interior paint (2026), a new vinyl privacy fence (2026), updated bathrooms, exterior security features, recently serviced mechanical systems, and a full PVC plumbing repipe throughout the entire home and all the way to the street. Located in an X flood zone, no flood insurance is required, a significant cost saving that sets this property apart from much of the surrounding area. With a 7-night minimum rental allowance, the income potential here is real, whether you're looking for a short-term rental investment, a seasonal Florida escape, or a full-time residence with the freedom to generate revenue when you're not using it. The oversized lot leaves room to dream big, think pool, outdoor entertainment space, guest house, or accessory dwelling unit. Positioned directly adjacent to commercial use to the west and established residential to the east, this property sits in a transitional corridor that forward-thinking buyers and investors will recognize as having strong long-term potential, including the possibility of future commercial rezoning, subject to Manatee County review and approval. Minutes to I-75, US-41, world-class Gulf Coast beaches, top-rated dining, shopping, and everything the Sarasota-Bradenton corridor has to offer, all tucked away on a quiet, private parcel that feels like your own little sanctuary. Properties like this don't last.
