Live in it, rent it, or do both. This 1925 cottage already has the charm, and the big-ticket updates are done: a new roof, updated plumbing, a new fence, and a new water heater. The hardwood floors have been restored with additional hardwood added throughout, and the living room still has the original brick wood-burning fireplace. There are two ensuite bedrooms, an updated kitchen, and a front room you can use as a sitting area or office. Two bedrooms, two baths, 1,324 square feet, on a 6,499 square foot lot with rear alley access, no HOA, and Flood Zone X. This oversized lot has endless opportunities for expansion and potential. A cement pad and electric are already in place if you wanted to add an additional dwelling later. You could live in the cottage and use that space for yourself or as a rental, rent the whole house even short-term, or do both. The lot also has room for a pool, a deck, or a carport. It's in Bradenton's River District, a few blocks from the Manatee River. Downtown Bradenton is about 1.3 miles away, the Riverwalk is about 2 miles, and Anna Maria Island is about 8 miles west.
