About this property

3 acres private 4 bed, 4 bath ranch, unusually huge lanai, heated pool, grill!

Gorgeous 3500 sf riverfront home on 3 lush acres with tropical landscaping. You will have use of the private dock and lift and can boat from our place out to the Gulf. This one of a kind brick ranch style home is perfect for those that value privacy, love the water, enjoy gardens, and desire space inside and out. Traditional style one story home has enough space to host a larger family or group. There are 2 ensuites with beautiful private baths (4 total bedrooms), 2 living areas (one has queen sized sofa bed), 2 eating areas inside, one outside) heated pool and jacuzzi with lovely very large screened in area overlooking the river. There are a total of 5 big screen smart televisions. The beauty of the Little Manatee River is nicely captured from many rooms inside the house through lots of windows. One of the master suites has its very own private sitting room and a very large marble bathroom with a large jetted soaker tub, makeup desk, double sinks with quartz countertops and a large marble shower. All beds throughout the house get raving reviews for comfort.

You will enjoy gorgeous sunrises as well as sunsets over the river. You may see dolphins, manatee, tropical birds, jumping fish, and other wildlife from the master bedroom, family room, breakfast nook, pool area, or while sitting on the dock. The dining area has an electric fireplace for a relaxing ambiance. The French doors lead to a wonderful outdoor Mecca with a lovely heated pool and jacuzzi, both with waterfalls, multiple seating areas, a large eating area, a gas fire pit, and a very nice large gas grill. There is a long palm lined ashphalt driveway with lovely tropical landscaped yard and beautiful night time lighting, suitable for royalty. We have 3 kayaks and one paddle board you can launch onto the river. This is a perfect place for the fisherman, outdoor lover, boater, and nature seeker. Many memories will be made here. You will not be disappointed in this truly beautiful Florida property...bound to surpass your expectations, guests frequently say the photos truly don’t do justice to this amazong one of a kind place. Beds sleep 8 plus a sofa bed for 2 additional sleepers.
