About this home

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Turnkey condo with deeded covered carport in one of Bradenton's most distinctive communities—welcome to effortless Gulf Coast living at Wildewood Springs. This beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa-style condo offers a rare combination: genuinely move-in-ready condition, a coveted location just minutes from Anna Maria Island, and a community setting unlike anything else along the Bradenton–Sarasota corridor. Whether you're seeking a Florida retreat, a seasonal residence, a full-time home, or a proven income-producing investment property near the Gulf beaches, this property delivers. Furnishings are available separately and may be purchased under a separate agreement, making your move even easier. Wildewood Springs is no ordinary condominium community. Designated as a Florida Audubon Society Wildlife and Bird Sanctuary, the grounds are a living landscape of mature oak canopies, tropical plantings, winding lakeside paths, and abundant wildlife that make every day feel like a walk through a nature preserve. Residents enjoy seven heated pools, multiple spas, tennis courts, and pickleball facilities, creating a true resort-style lifestyle. Inside, a comprehensive renovation has created a light-filled, open-concept interior that feels both inviting and sophisticated. The designer kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, and shaker-style cabinetry. Updated flooring, crown molding, and tasteful finishes continue throughout the home. Major systems have been addressed, including an HVAC system less than three years old and a brand-new water heater. Lightly used as a seasonal residence since renovation, the home presents in exceptional condition. The spacious primary suite opens to a private enclosed lanai surrounded by tropical greenery—an ideal setting for morning coffee, evening relaxation, or a peaceful remote-work environment. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated with tiled showers, granite countertops, and contemporary fixtures. An oversized storage closet provides valuable extra space rarely found in similar properties. The HOA fee includes high-speed internet, cable television, water, sewer, exterior maintenance, pest control, and nighttime security. The community is pet-friendly, professionally managed, and financially stable, offering the convenience and peace of mind buyers seek in a lock-and-leave Florida lifestyle. Ideally located near Anna Maria Island, Holmes Beach, Longboat Key, IMG Academy, Downtown Sarasota, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ), you'll enjoy easy access to beaches, dining, shopping, entertainment, and travel. Schedule your private showing today and discover why Wildewood Springs remains one of Bradenton's best-kept secrets.
