The combination of updates and classic Florida charm creates a home that is move-in ready. Beyond the home itself is where this property comes to life. Watch for native wildlife including birds, manatees, fish, and other river visitors that make every day feel like a retreat. You can fish right from your backyard and catch some of Florida's most prized species. With no HOA fees, a private waterfront lifestyle, and convenient access to I-75, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, this property offers the best of both worlds—peaceful riverfront living without feeling removed from everything. Just 3 miles to the Manatee River. Surrounded by everything but feels as if you're a world away.
