About this home

Old Florida charm meets thoughtfully curated design in this enchanting 1925 bungalow, just blocks from the Manatee River and the heart of downtown Bradenton. Situated on a generous lot, this two-bedroom (plus third flex room) home blends over a century of history with tasteful, modern updates. From the moment you approach the picturesque covered front porch, you'll feel the undeniable charm of this special home. Inside, beautifully distressed and painted original wood floors set the tone, while carefully selected finishes and distinctive light fixtures bring personality to every corner. The true showstopper is the designer kitchen, where striking black-and-white checkered tile floors meet crisp white shiplap walls, open shelving, a gas range with statement hood, prep sink, and seamlessly integrated refrigerator. Every detail feels intentional, creating a space that is as functional as it is beautiful. The updated bathroom with vanity area, two comfortable bedrooms, and a versatile third room complete the interior. The flex room has its own separate entry to the fenced backyard, so it could function beautifully as a home office, homework/play room, gym/yoga studio, or creative space. Outside, the new vinyl fence encloses the yard for pets, play, and entertaining. And the location is every bit as special as the home itself. Enjoy the best of Bradenton's waterfront lifestyle but with the peace of mind being located in FEMA Zone X (minimal flood hazard area). Stroll to the downtown Bradenton Riverwalk for dolphin sightings, then head to dinner, entertainment, or the Saturday farmers market without having to get in a car. Anna Maria Island and its world-famous beaches are just minutes away (and you can even catch the ferry from downtown Bradenton). The international airport is also close, which makes this an easy home base for frequent travelers. Charming, updated, and ideally located, this bungalow is the Old Florida dream.
