5100 Riverview Blvd., Bradenton, FL 34209

Enjoy one of Bradenton's most beautifully appointed and situated estates on the Manatee River. Hidden away from view on Riverview Boulevard, this home is accessed by a driveway of more than 175 feet lined by luscious plantings and trees which ends at welcome-arm stairs and a majestic stone fountain. Built in 2004 by Anchor, this home is reminiscent of a residence found only among the most beautiful in Bermuda, with its white tile roof and stylized architectural detailing. Not only does it feature a three-car, side-load garage, an infinity pool, a laundry or craft room and 200-foot dock with lift, it also boasts living spaces sufficiently spacious and open to accommodate a large family or parties. Tray ceilings with rope lighting are found in the living spaces and master bedroom, and plantation shutters grace every window, including the garage. A guest wing features a huge library or work space, with two baths each with custom etched shower doors. A separate, ground-level office provides views to the river, as do the master bedroom upstairs and living areas and kitchen downstairs. With a shaft already built for an elevator, the second-floor master bedroom proves to be among the best hideaways ever, featuring a separate seating room, a 500-square-foot balcony, and master baths and closets fit for a king and queen. The kitchen is just as impressive, featuring a stainless steel island, gas stove, GE Monogram appliances, and wine refrigerator, among much more.
