About this home

(Some photos are virtually staged.) WATER VIEWS OF THE MANATEE RIVER THAT LEADS YOU TO THE GULF OF MEXICO WATERS: Florida Paradise!! Looking for a home in a small waterfront community that has boat docks, dry storage, boat ramp and RV storage? Braden Castle is a Historical, waterfront, 55+ community where homes date back to 1925 and rarely become available as they are handed down generation after generation. This home has been lovingly maintained, and current updates have been added to blend with the old-world charm. Upon arriving you will see the custom-made lamppost and portico with stained glass insert above the entry door that are a true showstopper for many. The awnings were replaced (2019) and the gates were crafted by a local artist. Step inside and you are in a very inviting 7x12 entry room. Here you will enjoy taking in the full water views or maybe utilize this bright, breathtaking area for an office, to do artwork, or another hobby of choice. The living room is of generous size, offers views of the park setting across the street and has water views as well. Beautiful oak flooring graces the living room and is carried through to your formal dining room. The chef will enjoy the updated kitchen complete with granite counters, ss appliances, soft close drawers and cabinets, and a large walk-in pantry. Off the kitchen is a utility room with washer/dryer, plenty of shelving and yet another pantry. Both bathrooms, 1 downstairs and 1 upstairs, have been completely updated and have walk-in showers. Upstairs, plank flooring is throughout. The master bedroom is very spacious, offers a walk-in closet, as well as a second closet, has a window seat and its own private sitting room with full water views. The guest bedroom is quaint and cozy. It has a door inside of the closet that leads to additional attic storage space. In addition to all this, a full roof replacement was done in 2021. If you prefer tinkering outside, there is a shed in the back that would be perfect for hosting your tools and/or gadgets in addition to the shared garage that comes with this home. There is also an outdoor seating area where neighbors are sure to stop and say hello and where you will capture magnificent sunsets. Braden Castle is a hidden gem community where you will enjoy riding around in your golf cart, bike riding, walking, or taking a stroll on the 700’ fishing pier that is only steps away from your front door.
