About this home

Virtually Staged. Welcome to the ultimate Florida waterfront lifestyle. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in a private marina enclave in Palmetto, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom canal home effortlessly blends sleek, modern design with a boater's dream layout. Spanning 1,957 square feet of meticulously planned, single-level living, the residence makes a striking first impression with its crisp, light contemporary facade and beautifully manicured tropical landscaping. Step past the wide paved driveway to the secure front entry, where a premium impact-resistant glass door welcomes you inside while ensuring peace of mind. Built with durability and safety at the forefront, this hurricane-ready home features full impact-rated doors and windows throughout, providing superior storm protection, energy efficiency, and security without compromising on aesthetic appeal. Inside, the home opens into a bright, airy open-concept space defined by soaring volume ceilings, elegant tray details, and modern recessed lighting. The expansive main living area flows naturally into a gourmet kitchen featuring crisp light countertops, high-end finishes, and a massive walk-in pantry that provides exceptional storage. The thoughtful layout includes a split-bedroom design, anchored by a massive primary bedroom suite that serves as a true private retreat. The connected primary bathroom features a luxurious walk-in shower and leads into an oversized walk-in closet with ample room for any wardrobe. Out back, the property opens directly onto your personal piece of the canal. With private water access to the Manatee River just steps away, early morning fishing trips or sunset cruises are a daily reality. The backyard offers a massive, blank-canvas footprint that serves as the perfect setup for the future—giving you the ideal foundation to design and add your own custom pool, screened cage, or outdoor kitchen exactly the way you want it. Complete with a pristine two-car garage, this property represents the peak of modern Gulf Coast luxury with room to grow.
