Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Wares Creek, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow boasts a blend of old Florida allure and modern comforts. With a separate formal dining area and den that could serve as a potential third bedroom, this residence underwent a significant renovation in 2015, enhancing its appeal. The updates are extensive, including modernized electrical and plumbing systems, a roof equipped with spray foam insulation for enhanced comfort and sound quality, updated windows, a refreshed kitchen, and a renovated bathroom. The original hardwood floors were meticulously refinished, and the landscaping and irrigation are all new. Acquired by the current owner in 2016, the bungalow received additional exterior enhancements. The backyard underwent a transformation with added landscaping and walk paths, creating an inviting haven for butterflies and birds amidst the lush Florida tropics. The detached one-car garage was converted into a screened-in cabana, providing an ideal space for outdoor dining or leisurely reading in the pleasant breezes. The fully fenced backyard, with alley access and a sliding gate, offers ample space to construct a garage, workshop, or accommodate an RV or other recreational vehicles. Preserving its charm, the bungalow features a split front door and an inviting front porch, bringing authentic Florida vibes. Presently utilized as an active vacation rental, this home provides the convenience of proximity to downtown Bradenton's main street, featuring exceptional restaurants and weekend markets. Situated just a few blocks from Manatee Ave., it offers quick access to the beautiful beaches of Anna Maria Island, Palma Sola Causeway, and scenic parks like Robinson Preserve and Desoto National Park. Whether you seek a second home with supplementary income or simply desire a slice of old Florida charm, this property is sure to exceed your expectations.
