Welcome to the shores of the Myakka River! The true value of this property lies in its exceptional setting, offering an unmatched opportunity to create your dream riverfront retreat. Situated on a heavily landscaped, one-acre wooded lot bordering the Myakka River, this gated estate delivers ultimate privacy and a peaceful escape from the everyday. The home features a highly functional floor plan with three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a guest powder room, and a two-car garage. An open-concept living and dining area serves as the heart of the home, anchored by a sunken fireplace area. Outside, the pool and its screened enclosure (30'x50') are framed by mature trees and native shrubs, providing a completely secluded backyard oasis. While the residence itself is ready for your personal touch and repairs, the incredible privacy, expansive acreage, and direct connection to the river make this a rare find with endless potential.
