1805 2nd Ave., Bradenton, FL 34208

Year-end buyers, take note: this elevated 2022 build stayed high and dry through Hurricanes Helene and Milton, with no flooding or water intrusion per seller, and it’s ready to work for you before December 31. Just a short stroll from the Manatee River and 10 miles (25 minutes) to Anna Maria Island, it offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a flex room with French door that sleeps a fourth guest or works as an office. The open plan is made for groups: tray ceilings, transom windows, plantation shutters and luxury vinyl plank throughout. The kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz counters, stainless appliances, a wine fridge, coffee bar and breakfast-bar seating, open to dining for eight. The primary suite has a frameless glass walk-in shower and private water closet. A mudroom drop zone and keyless smart lock make turnovers easy. Outside: covered front and back porches, a gazebo lounge in the fenced backyard, paver driveway and tropical landscaping. Want to add a pool? Design plans are available. Elevation certificate available. Minutes to downtown Bradenton and the Riverwalk, with Anna Maria Island an easy drive away. Furniture negotiable.
