Restored 1922 Key West-style bungalow in the heart of Bradenton’s historic River District - the perfect walking or biking location to the Manatee River, downtown events, parks, boat launches, shopping, dining, and just a few miles to Gulf beaches!  This beautiful home has had many substantial upgrades, including a new roof and a restored fireplace. Its high ceilings, light cascading from its many original windows, heart pine floors, extensive woodwork, and HGTV’s coastal colors give you a feeling of calm serenity as you enter. The large front porch and backyard with its brick patio are wonderful spaces to relax, grill out, or entertain. An outdoor shower, sprinkler system, and landscape lighting further enhance this spacious, fenced, and private paradise, along with centennial oaks and tropical plantings. Storage space includes a walk-in master closet, separate utility and pantry rooms, and a spacious stand-up attic. A wood-paneled flex room in the center of the home allows for a home office, playroom, or studio. This cook’s kitchen is a joy with its beautiful windows, cast iron sink, and vintage-look appliances. The detached garage with hot/cold running water may meet other needs, such as a family apartment, rental unit, or office. The wide driveway allows for boat/RV parking, with electric and water hookups, while still having room for multiple vehicles. When it's time to leave, I-75, Sarasota, and Tampa airports are nearby. Come fall in love with this Olde Florida home! Note: Price includes most furnishings.
