STUNNING VIEWS from this COMPLETELY REMODELED home sitting on over half an acre directly on the Manatee River…with private BOAT DOCK and 12,000lb BOAT LIFT! The backyard features a beautiful paver patio that surrounds a giant oak tree, just perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing as you gaze out on the water and watch the dolphins swim by. Professional landscape lighting allows you to enjoy the backyard even after the sun goes down. Plus, the entire yard is fenced-in so it's great for pets as well. As beautiful as the views are outside, the inside of the home is just as impressive. The home was completely remodeled 5 years ago. The kitchen is gorgeous with granite counters, subway tile backsplash, solid wood cabinets with soft-close drawers and undercabinet lighting, and of course, a spectacular view of the river! Other upgrades include beautiful wood-grain porcelain tile throughout the home, exquisite light fixtures, and HURRICANE IMPACT WINDOWS throughout. No need to worry about copper pipes as the entire home was recently replumbed. At the same time a BRAND NEW water heater along with an additional tankless water heater were both installed. The AC is BRAND NEW as well. An artesian well provides water for irrigation keeping your water bills low. This 3bed/2bath home also has an office and a bonus room that can easily be used as a 4th bedroom. Plenty of room to store all your toys, either outside, in the shed, or in the oversized garage. NO DEED RESTRICTIONS means not only can you park your boat and jet skis, but you can park your RV as well. In fact, this home already has a 30 amp plug just waiting for your RV. Great location…just 15 minutes to Lakewood Ranch and within 30 minutes to downtown St Pete to the north or downtown Sarasota to the south. Want to hit the beach? Anna Maria Island is just 25 minutes away and Lido Beach and Nokomis Beach are both within 35 minutes. This is truly the one you've been waiting for as it is nearly impossible to find a home in this condition, directly on the Manatee River, at this price.
