Nestled in the heart of Bradenton’s coveted River District, this beautifully renovated cottage-style vintage home has been thoughtfully brought back to life, blending timeless character with refined modern updates. The charm of the original residence remains evident in the meticulously restored hardwood floors, which continue seamlessly throughout the home. Major improvements include a new roof, updated plumbing, new fence, and a new water heater, providing peace of mind while preserving the home’s historic appeal. A welcoming entry opens to a charming front room, offering flexible use as a sitting area, home office, or creative space. The living room is anchored by the original brick fireplace, a warm and authentic focal point that speaks to the home’s heritage. The updated kitchen and bathrooms are both stylish and functional, complementing the home’s two generously sized ensuite bedrooms, each designed for comfort and privacy. Set on an oversized lot with rear alley access, the property offers exceptional versatility with a cement pad and electric already in place—ideal for the addition of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). This future space could serve as a private guest cottage, a refined work-from-home retreat, multigenerational living quarters, or an income-producing rental, all while maintaining privacy and enhancing long-term value. Located just minutes from downtown Bradenton’s vibrant dining, arts, and waterfront destinations, and a short drive to the area’s renowned Gulf Coast beaches, this River District residence offers a rare combination of historic charm, modern convenience, and coastal lifestyle appeal.
