Description of Property
Big Water. Big Views. Completely Turnkey on the Manatee River. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after waterfront community of Tropical Harbor, this Ellenton stunner delivers some of the widest, most expansive open-water views on the Manatee River. With direct access to both the river and the Intracoastal, it's a rare find for boaters, anglers, and anyone who craves life on the water, and it comes fully furnished and ready to enjoy from day one. Step outside to your private resort-style retreat. A heated pool with a cascading waterfall feature, all wrapped in a screened cage with three-quarters of the screening freshly replaced. The brand-new pool pump and heater (2024) mean year-round enjoyment, while the spacious paver pool deck sets the stage for sunset gatherings over the water. Your private dock is a boater's dream, featuring two lifts, all-new wood decking, and both water and power on-site. The seawall cap, replaced in 2010, remains in mint condition. Inside, no detail has been overlooked. The home has been thoughtfully and extensively updated, including updated PGT impact windows and sliders for peace of mind and energy efficiency. Brand new 3 & 5 ton Trane HVAC systems with all-new ductwork were installed in 2024, and the roof was replaced in 2020. Fresh interior paint (2025) and updated exterior paint (2019) keep the home crisp and move-in ready. The interior shines with elegant plantation shutters throughout the bedrooms, updated stainless steel appliances, and beautifully remodeled spaces, the luxurious primary ensuite bath, the guest bathroom, and the laundry room were all renovated in 2025. Best of all, this home conveys fully furnished and turnkey, right down to a new garage refrigerator. Parking and storage are abundant, with a one-car attached garage plus a two-car carport addition (built 2020) that comfortably fits two SUVs. A brick paver driveway, added in 2020, elevates the curb appeal, while smart improvements like a French drain for added flood protection and insulated crawlspaces give you confidence in every season. From the major-ticket updates to the thoughtful finishing touches, this is a home where the work has already been done, all that's left is to bring your boat(s), your sunscreen, and your sense of adventure. Homes with this combination of premium open-water views, a private dock with direct river and Intracoastal access, extensive modern upgrades, and a coveted cul-de-sac location simply don't come along often. Properties like this in Tropical Harbor are truly one of a kind. Come experience the very best of Manatee River living. Schedule your private showing today before this exceptional opportunity slips away.
