The screened lanai adds year-round living space and offers tranquil views of birds and wildlife. Step outside and launch a kayak or paddleboard just feet from your back door. There’s even covered parking just outside the front entrance and an in-unit washer and dryer hook-up already in place for convenience.

Enjoy a walkable lifestyle with downtown Bradenton just minutes away — explore the vibrant night scene, weekend farmers market, and attractions like the Bradenton Riverwalk, Lecom Park, and the Village of the Arts.
