This magnificent riverfront estate has direct frontage on a protected portion of the Manatee River with phenomenal water views. The almost one-acre property has direct access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico with no bridges. You will be impressed with the quality of everything in this meticulously maintained property. The large, private master bedroom and adjoining office plus workout room are on the first floor. Gorgeous kitchen was recently completely remodeled with newer, top-of-the-line appliances, center island cooktop, quartz countertops, and custom cabinetry. There is a formal living room with beamed cathedral ceilings and wood fireplace plus a huge family room off the kitchen with built-ins and a built-in bar equipped with bar fridge and sink. The large laundry room is located off the kitchen with two full sized washer and dryers. The second level includes two very spacious guest rooms with large windows overlooking the river and both have ensuite bathrooms. In addition, at the other end of the upper floor is one more private bedroom and bath for a total of three full bedrooms and baths on the second level. There is also another office off the guest bedrooms upstairs which leads to a bonus room over the garage that is completely finished and air conditioned. Florida is all about the outdoor space, and the outside living area is the true ‘wow’ factor of this home. An outdoor kitchen and fire pit overlook the fabulous river views plus there is a dazzling inground pool with LED lights. Charming, manicured grounds lead to the boat dock which has new Trex decking and is completely lit, leading to the 14,000 pound boat lift and an additional 4,500 pound boat lift. From the dock, it is approximately 6 ½ miles to the Gulf of Mexico by boat. Privacy from your neighbors is provide by lush, green foliage. So perfectly located, you can bike to Robinson Preserve, a 600+-acre coastal preserve with hiking paths, kayak and canoe waterways, bridges, picnic spots, mangrove forests, and a 53-foot-tall tower with a wide-open view of Tampa Bay. IMG Academy is approximately 10 minutes away as is the private K-12 school, St. Stephens Episcopal School. You are also close to all conveniences including shopping, restaurants, medical facilities, spectacular Anna Maria Island beaches, Desoto Memorial Park, and you are just a short distance to downtown Bradenton, which offers all sorts of indoor and outdoor fun, including a history museum, aquarium and planetarium, a performing arts center, and an enchanting park that rambles alongside Manatee River. This is luxury, southern living at its finest! (Please see the list of the many features and upgrades in the MLS attachments which are too numerous to mention).
