Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Bradenton
Listing Price: $925,000
Description of Property
Experience riverfront living along one of Bradenton’s most cherished waterfront neighborhoods, where Old Florida charm meets wide-open freedom and no HOA rules stand between you and the lifestyle you want. Set on a rare double lot, this property offers direct access to the Manatee River, giving boaters an easy route to Tampa Bay and the Gulf with the space at home to store every toy imaginable: RVs, trailers, jet skis, boats, work trucks, and more. The setting feels private and unhurried, framed by mature trees and the peaceful rhythm of the river, yet ideally located within minutes of downtown Bradenton, restaurants along the riverfront, marinas, parks, and the cultural and coastal experiences that define the Sarasota–Bradenton area. The existing home is welcoming, functional, and move-in ready, but what truly sets this property apart is the canvas it offers with room to expand, re-imagine, or build the riverfront retreat you’ve always pictured. Morning sunrises wash across the backyard, afternoons invite you onto the water, and evenings settle into breezy, golden light you can only find along the sparkling water. Riverside Drive has long been known for its character and the unmistakable feeling of a neighborhood rooted in authenticity rather than restrictions. Whether you’re looking for a place to redesign from the ground up, keep as a peaceful waterfront getaway, or create a compound surrounded by open space, privacy, and direct water access, this property delivers a rare combination of location, flexibility, and genuine Florida lifestyle. Here, the water is steps from your front door, the lot is expansive and truly yours to shape, and the opportunities are as open as the lifestyle you’ve been searching for. Minutes to the downtown Bradenton Riverwalk and a straight 11 mile drive to the world-famous beaches of Anna Maria Island, giving you effortless access to boating, dining, and the Gulf coast lifestyle. This is not just a property, it’s a chance to claim a piece of Old Florida waterfront, design a life that moves at your pace, and anchor yourself in a setting that feels both timeless and full of possibility.
