About this home

BACK ON MARKET, BUYER DIDN'T PERFORM. West Bradenton pool home on a dead-end street just one block off Manatee Ave W. Currently operating as a highly rated short-term rental with $110,000 in income for last 12 months. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence pairs a resort-style backyard with a central location minutes from the Gulf beaches, IMG Academy, and downtown Bradenton. It suits investors, second-home buyers, or full-time living.

The fully fenced backyard is the showpiece: a heated saltwater pool, hot tub, putting green, outdoor dining patio, and a pergola-covered fire pit area, all set up for year-round use in the Florida climate.

Inside, an open floor plan connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas for easy entertaining. The kitchen has a center island with seating for four and room for a dining table that seats eight. The living room offers plenty of space for gathering after a day at the beach or the ball fields.

The primary suite sits privately at the rear of the home with an en-suite bath and direct access to the patio, pergola, and fire pit. The second bedroom fits a king bed and opens through French doors directly to the pool deck. The third bedroom also fits a king bed, and the fourth is set up as a bunk room with large corner windows overlooking the pool and spa. Two full bathrooms serve the home, and the current layout sleeps up to 11.

Rental-ready features include keyless smart-lock entry, Smart TVs in every bedroom, and high speed internet availability. The property holds a 4.97-star guest rating across 68 reviews, with strong demand from visitors attending IMG Academy events, spring training, and beach vacations.

The location stands out. Approximate drive times are 12 minutes to the beaches, 9 minutes to IMG Academy, 8 minutes to LECOM Park, and 7 minutes to downtown Bradenton and the Riverwalk. Shopping, dining, and grocery stores are just around the corner along Manatee Ave W.

Furnishings may be available under separate agreement. Buyer to verify all information, including short-term rental regulations, zoning, rental history, and measurements.
