Virtually Staged. Freshly painted and move-in ready, this inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bath townhome offers 1,496 square feet of comfortable living in Harborage on Braden River, a gated waterfront community where nature, amenities, and convenience come together for an exceptional Florida lifestyle. Step inside to a bright, welcoming interior featuring ceramic tile and carpet flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an inside laundry room, and an oversized storage closet beneath the stairs. Both bedrooms offer the privacy of their own en suite bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a large walk-in closet, dual sinks, and walk-in shower. One of the home's standout features is the private courtyard, creating your own outdoor retreat for morning coffee, dining under the stars, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying Florida's beautiful weather. An oversized 2-car garage with rear alley access provides plenty of room for vehicles, storage, bikes, kayaks, and all the gear that comes with enjoying life on the Gulf Coast. Recent updates add even more peace of mind, including a new roof in February 2022, HVAC in 2023, water heater in 2026, and new roof and garage gutters completed in May/June 2026, along with fresh interior paint. But life at Harborage extends well beyond your front door. Winding streets, mature trees, waterfront views, and nature trails give the community a peaceful, tucked-away feel, while an impressive collection of amenities makes it easy to enjoy every day. Launch a kayak from the community launch, cast a line from the fishing and observation pier, relax at the riverfront gazebo overlooking the Braden River, or spend the afternoon at the resort-style heated pool and spa. Residents also enjoy a fitness center, dog park, clubhouse, and boat slips available for rent on a first-come, first-served basis. Harborage offers the kind of setting that feels like an escape without sacrificing convenience. I-75, Lakewood Ranch, UTC, downtown Bradenton, Sarasota, golf, shopping, dining, SRQ Airport, Tampa, and the Gulf beaches are all within easy reach. Whether you're searching for a year-round home, seasonal Florida retreat, or easy lock-and-leave lifestyle, this move-in-ready townhome offers the space, amenities, waterfront setting, and convenience to enjoy Florida living from day one.
