“The Magnificent Grand Colonial Mansion” The Riverfront Estate is an architectural masterpiece on the Manatee River Channel. Breathtaking water views extend the full length of the residence through French doors, sidelights, and arched transoms designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Northern exposure fills the interior with natural light while framing expansive views of the Manatee River and Gulf of America. This custom multi-level mansion offers approx. 12,000 sq ft of interior living space and nearly 14,000 sq ft under roof. Nearly every vantage point capture sweeping waterfront scenery, with each bedroom suite positioned for optimal river and canal views. The estate includes approx. 202 feet of prime waterfrontage with direct Gulf access within minutes. Positioned caddy-corner across the Manatee River Channel/Governors Cut from the Bradenton Yacht Club, the estate holds one of the premier locations along the river with direct access north to Tampa Bay. A newly constructed (2025) 400-foot deep-water pier serves as a private bridge to open waters, featuring a 14x12 platform for fishing, entertaining, or launching kayaks. The dock includes a heavy-duty davit system for vessels up to 35 feet, deep-water frontage of 5.5–6.5 ft accommodating yachts up to 70 feet, plus power, water, lighting, and prep station. Rare potential for seaplane access adds exclusivity. The grand master suite offers an 1,100 sq ft ground-floor retreat with river-to-Gulf views and wood-burning fireplace, flowing into a 1,000 sq ft spa bath with dual granite vanities, marble floors, and clawfoot tub overlooking the water. Includes dual-head shower, walk-in closets, and laundry hookups. Originally built in 1973 and renovated in 2009, the estate has been enhanced with modern upgrades including a 2025 roof, chandeliers, 18-inch marble flooring, luxury woodwork, impact windows, updated systems, and multi-zone HVAC. The open-concept design flows into a 1,900+ sq ft Great Room with sunset views, wet bar, wine fridge, chef’s kitchen, and formal dining. Additional features include four fireplaces, Butler’s Kitchen, oversized laundry, custom cabinetry, and curved staircase to upper-level office overlooking the river. The second level includes a luxury suite with panoramic views, spa bath, whirlpool tub, walk-in closet, and a 400 sq ft bonus room. Upper levels feature a mezzanine loft and two additional bedroom suites with private baths and water views. Additional improvements include interior/exterior paint, resurfaced driveway and pool deck, seawall enhancements, and updated electrical and plumbing systems.
