Step into timeless Florida charm with this fully furnished, turnkey 1920s coastal bungalow, ideally located on a quiet, palm-lined corner lot just steps from the Manatee River—offering easy access to launch your kayak or paddle board, cast a fishing line, or simply soak in the serene waterfront scenery. Currently used as a successful AirBnB with a proven rental history, this lovingly maintained home delivers the perfect combination of vintage character and modern upgrades, making it an exceptional opportunity for investors, seasonal residents, or full-time coastal dwellers.
The main house features two spacious bedrooms and one full bathroom, showcasing beautiful original hardwood floors, and a bright, open-concept layout. The detached mother-in-law suite is a charming open air conditioned studio with its own full bath and separate entrance, ideal for guests, potential additional rental income, or creative flex space.
In 2024, the home underwent extensive improvements including new metal roofs and gutters on both the bungalow and garage, with significant repairs and reinforcements to supporting beams before installation. The detached garage was carefully restored with new treated wood floorboards and upgraded electrical, including elevated outlets for added safety. The breezeway shed was also rebuilt with treated lumber to preserve its original character while reinforcing its structure.
Inside the main home, the kitchen ceiling was fully replaced with new beams and attic insulation, resulting in a fresh, sturdy update that pairs perfectly with all-new stainless steel appliances (2024). A brand-new HVAC system was also installed in 2024 by Air America and comes with a yearly maintenance contract. The bathroom has been remodeled, featuring a reglazed tub, new fixtures, and professional paint for a clean, coastal feel.
Added modern upgrades include a whole-home surge protector installed by FPL, which provides appliance and wiring insurance, along with a full-home fumigation and a transferable warranty. Pest protection continues with a Sentricon system and Westfall Pest Control contract, including a rodent baiting program. For peace of mind, four new Ring cameras were mounted to monitor the home’s exterior, and hurricane shutters are included. Natural gas is available on the property.
Outdoor living shines with a screened-in front porch strung with café lights, a paved brick patio, tropical landscaping, and plenty of space for relaxing or entertaining beneath the palm trees. Whether you're enjoying the sunset from the porch, firing up the grill in the backyard, or hosting guests in the studio suite, this property truly offers the best of laid-back Gulf Coast living.
This one-of-a-kind bungalow is move-in ready, filled with thoughtful improvements, and fully equipped for a lifestyle of ease, comfort, and income potential.
