Property Description
Step back in time to 1842 when Josiah Gates, the first Anglo-American settler from Tampa, purchased 74 acres and operated the state's largest mango and grapefruit plantation. This was one of the homes on the estate and has been lovingly cared for and updated over the years. This lovely lady has withstood the winds and rain and has remained high and dry; a testament to the craftsmanship of bygone days.
The home retains the original Heart Pine flooring, plaster walls and detailed millwork throughout. Modern updates include a gourmet kitchen with NEW Forno refrigerator and dishwasher as well as a NEW allman Classico dual-fuel range offering the best of both worlds, gas stove top cooking and electric convection oven. The family room boasts an electric fireplace with a mantle from the 1800s. The dining area sparkles under an antique crystal chandelier, also from the 1800s. The screened in front porch takes you back in time where you can relax with a glass of sweet tea and read on the swing.
Modern day updates include: METAL ROOF (2019), AC handler and hot water heater (2021), NEW electric panel and raised mast (2024), NEW hot tub and 50 amp outlet for an RV (2024), NEW washer and dryer (2024) conveniently located on the 2nd floor near bedrooms, 4 NEW (2024) hurricane impact windows upstairs. The Home has also been freshly painted inside and out.
The neighborhood, composed of full-time residents, offers views of the Manatee River with the River Walk 3 blocks away. Walk or bike to downtown Bradenton to take in the many pubs and eateries along Main Street. Pier 22 restaurant offers fine dining and a marina. If you are a beach person, a 10 mile drive due west puts you on Anna Maria Island which boasts some of the best beaches Florida has to offer. Need proximity to a hospital? Manatee Memorial is 5 minutes away. Need to get to Sarasota? A short 13 mile drive via 301 puts you right downtown. There are no restrictions on rentals here.
Come enjoy Florida living at its best in a peaceful, established neighborhood that offers convenience to all the reasons we love living here.
