Property Description
Short Sale. **PREVIOUS BUYER FAILED TO CLOSE** SHORT SALE APPROVED. WATERFRONT DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH JUST SECONDS TO THE RIVER! Priced at land value, this property can be used to build the home of your dreams from the ground up, or bring your vision and recreate a home with the current structure. Home sustained flood damage in 2024 and has since been professionally remediated. While the inside is ready to finish, many elements remain in fabulous condition including a new 2024 METAL ROOF, 2023 HVAC, 2016 BOAT LIFT/DOCK with Timbertech composite and PVC decking, and a quintessential Florida swimming pool. In addition, impact windows and sliders were upgraded at the rear of the home, and pool equipment was replaced less than 2 years ago (heater has not been used since storm). Large circular driveway and ADDITIONAL paved parking on the side of the home. Have an EV? The home already prewired with an outlet. Ideal location convenient to downtown Bradenton, Ellenton shopping, St. Petersburg, the vibrant Sarasota area, easy access to 3 airports, I-75, and world famous beaches and fishing! No need to get in your car...just lower your boat and spend the day on the water. Great investment spot for water enthusiasts looking for a more central location that puts you close to just about everything. PROPERTY SOLD AS-IS, SELLER WILL NOT MAKE REPAIRS.
