No HOA. No CDD. No deed restrictions — and just blocks from a public boat ramp. This move-in-ready 2-bedroom home has been thoughtfully renovated and offers flexibility that today’s buyers are craving. The primary bedroom easily adapts as a nursery, home office, or cozy sitting room, making the layout work for a variety of lifestyles. Terrazzo floors, a metal roof, and abundant natural light give the home timeless Florida charm with low-maintenance peace of mind. The sunroom—perfect as a dining space or bonus living area—is wrapped in windows and filled with sunshine. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard that feels like a private escape, featuring mature trees, a storage shed, and a breathtaking old oak that anchors the space. Whether you’re relaxing, entertaining, or storing your toys, this yard delivers. Located minutes from shopping, dining, schools, and I-75 with quick access to Bradenton, Sarasota, St. Pete, and Tampa. Boat ramp nearby means weekends on the water are always an option. Homes without restrictions like this are getting harder to find—schedule your showing before this one slips away.
