About this home

TURNKEY COASTAL LIVING—ANNUAL RENTAL AT THE PRICE OF UNFURNISHED!
Step into effortless island life in this beautifully coastal-designed custom stilt home in the heart of Bradenton Beach—just 2 blocks from the Gulf of Mexico and 2 blocks from the Intracoastal Waterway. Here, everything you love about the beach is only steps away: pristine sugar-sand shores, waterfront dining, a neighborhood park with kayak launch and day dock, unique island shops, and the relaxed pace that makes this community so special.
This elevated residence offers all living on the second and third levels to capture Gulf breezes and natural light. The second level welcomes you with a bright, beach-inspired interior, a charming breakfast nook, and a well-appointed kitchen overlooking the Gulf-side balcony with stainless appliances, closet pantry, and leaded-glass entry door. Step out to the spacious covered patio—ideal for sunset skies and salty air. A full bath with shower and convenient laundry closet with stacked washer and dryer complete this level.
Upstairs, the third level features two inviting bedrooms and a second full bath. The primary suite opens through French doors to a private covered balcony—your own peaceful perch with lovely Gulf views. The second bedroom offers twin bunkbeds for guests, family, or a flexible home office.
The ground level is designed for true island living with tandem parking for at least two vehicles plus room for a boat or trailer. Inside the fenced courtyard you’ll find a private outdoor retreat featuring a heated spa, ping-pong table, gazebo cabana, outdoor grill, and shaded lounge areas—a turnkey backyard made for year-round enjoyment.
Leave the car at home—Salt Life Restaurant is steps away, the quick mart for ice and essentials is right around the corner, and Publix is less than a mile from your door. Stroll to the waterfront park with kayak launch and dock, wander to dinner on the bay, or take a two-block walk to the Gulf for toes-in-the-sand sunsets.
Come enjoy island life where everything is close, easy, and beautifully simple. Fully furnished and ready now—annual lease available.
