Description of Property
Endless Possibilities on 2.6 Acres! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers both space and versatility, along with a studio guest house and two stand-alone buildings. The main home features an enclosed lanai transformed into a spacious family/Florida room overlooking the screened pool, plus an additional bedroom and bath. Major updates include a roof replaced in 2022, a 2-year-old A/C system, a new septic system in 2024, and a water pump replaced in 2025. With some TLC, this property could truly shine! The self-sufficient guest cottage includes a full kitchen with a gas range, a private bath with a stall shower, a washer/dryer hookup, and could be a fantastic rental or in-law suite. One stand-alone building—previously approved by Manatee County for business use—once operated as a beauty salon and barbershop. County documentation supports several other allowable home business opportunities, such as an artist studio, a tailor, a daycare, a sales office, and more. The second portable outbuilding features electricity and A/C, making it perfect for a home office, gym, game room, or extra bedroom. Enjoy A-1 zoning that allows horses, other animals, and RV parking. Located just minutes from I-75 for an easy commute to St. Pete or Sarasota, this property offers room to roam, income potential, and a lifestyle limited only by your imagination.
