Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Bradenton
Listing Price: $900,000
Description of Property
Double Waterfront Lot with Direct Manatee River Access - A Truly Rare Riverside Drive Opportunity. Opportunities like this are increasingly rare along Riverside Drive. Set on a one-of-a-kind double waterfront lot, this property delivers direct access to the Manatee River, expansive outdoor space, and the freedom of no HOA restrictions - a combination that is nearly impossible to replicate at this price point. Here, Old Florida charm meets wide-open possibility. Enjoy effortless boating with a straight route to Tampa Bay and the Gulf, plus ample room at home for boats, RVs, trailers, jet skis, work trucks, and every lifestyle toy imaginable, something few waterfront properties can offer. The setting feels private and relaxed, framed by mature trees and the steady rhythm of the river, yet remains just minutes from downtown Bradenton, riverfront dining, marinas, parks, and cultural destinations. The existing home is welcoming, functional, and move-in ready, allowing you to enjoy the waterfront lifestyle immediately. At the same time, the double lot creates an exceptional canvas ideal for expansion, redesign, or building a custom riverfront estate while maintaining privacy, open space, and direct water access. Morning sunrises light the backyard, afternoons invite you onto the water, and evenings settle into breezy golden light that only true riverfront living provides. Riverside Drive is known for its character, authenticity, and sense of place where neighbors value lifestyle over restrictions and waterfront living still feels personal. Whether you envision a peaceful waterfront retreat, a reimagined coastal residence, or a private compound with room to grow, this property offers a rare blend of location, flexibility, and long-term value - especially when compared to nearby vacant waterfront lots priced similarly without a home included. Just minutes to the downtown Bradenton Riverwalk and an easy 11-mile drive to the sugar-sand beaches of Anna Maria Island, this is more than a home, it’s a chance to secure a piece of timeless Florida waterfront, live at your own pace, and invest in a setting that continues to grow more valuable with time. Properties with this combination of land, water access, freedom, and price are seldom available. Schedule your private showing and experience the difference firsthand.
