A RARE WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY-BRING YOUR VISION, NOT SOMEONE ELSE'S! Why pay a premium for another owner's renovations when you can create a waterfront home designed entirely around your own style? Set along the beautiful Manatee River in Bradenton's highly desirable Historic River District, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence presents a unique opportunity to transform an unfinished interior into something truly extraordinary. The hard part is finding the right location, and this one delivers! Positioned on a desirable corner lot with spectacular river views, the home offers an exceptional setting surrounded by historic charm, established neighborhoods, and some of Bradenton's most distinctive waterfront properties. Expansive views of the Manatee River provide a stunning backdrop for everyday living, whether you're envisioning a contemporary coastal retreat, a timeless Old Florida residence, or a luxurious waterfront escape. Think of this as a head start on your dream renovation. Previously impacted by Hurricane Helene, the property has undergone professional remediation and is being offered with an unfinished interior, providing buyers the freedom to select their own finishes, fixtures, cabinetry, flooring, and design details without the expense of removing someone else's recent updates. A NEW ROOF and FRESH EXTERIOR PAINT are already in place, allowing you to focus on bringing the interior to life. The flexible floor plan offers exciting possibilities for entertaining, accommodating extended family, or creating separate guest spaces. The property also includes dock rights, offering the potential to establish your own waterfront access, subject to applicable approvals. Imagine boating along the Manatee River, exploring Tampa Bay, or heading toward the Gulf beaches, all from your own backyard. Located just minutes from downtown Bradenton's restaurants, shopping, Riverwalk, cultural attractions, and waterfront destinations, this property combines the appeal of a historic neighborhood with the convenience of city living. Waterfront properties can be renovated, but exceptional locations cannot be recreated. For the buyer with imagination, this is more than an unfinished house. It's an opportunity to create something personal, distinctive, and truly special in one of Bradenton's most sought-after waterfront neighborhoods. Bring your contractor, your designer, and your vision-the next chapter of this remarkable riverfront property is yours to write!
