318 Hardin Ave., Anna Maria, FL 34216

Here is a fabulous chance to own a two-bedroom, two-bath, single-family pool home on an 8,100 square foot lot just south of The Center of Anna Maria. It’s close to everything the Village of Anna Maria has to offer: walking distance to the beach, shopping along Pine Avenue, fine dining at nearby restaurants, and, of course, a free Island Trolley for wider exploration. It is well-situated on a beautifully landscaped lot with mature vegetation. At 1,550 s.f. under air, the very low price per square foot (just over $350 ppsf) reflects the as-Is condition of the interior. But there are two nice living areas, a Florida room across the back and several lovely details, including crown molding, swirl ceilings, storm resistant exterior windows, some wood ceilings, a Mamie Eisenhower pink bathroom, big comfy lanai, and large indoor utility room. Backyard has six-foot fencing; there is a large shed (or non-conforming guest/pool house) for your potential use, and a nifty parking place off Palm Ave on the back side of the property, with separate gated entrance. Many maintenance items have been deferred: the pool could use fresh Marcite, interior doors need replacement, some original jalousie windows are still there (on interior walls); but that allows the next owner to make investments in this property to his or her own specifications. A family enjoyed their ‘beach house’ here on Hardin for a long, long time. Now, however, the estate is selling it, and a savvy buyer will surely see the value in this offering.
