Situated on an oversized double lot at the end of a street, the Bradenton Beach home is surrounded by towering palms and lush landscaping, with spectacular east-facing water and sunrise views from the kitchen, living room, office, and primary bedroom. Less than 450 feet away is a serene beach on the Gulf of Mexico for enjoying seaside strolls and stunning sunsets.

The water depth at the lift and dock is at least 4' in most tide conditions, with a legally dredged channel at the dock for access to the Intracoastal Waterway—no fixed bridges.
