Golf, beach days, shopping, dining, and proximity to IMG Academy-this two-bedroom condo in Valencia Gardens puts all of that within reach. Whether you're looking for a year-round home or a place to stay during visits to IMG, you'll have a Bradenton home base near campus and the Gulf beaches of Anna Maria Island. The spacious glass-enclosed lanai is the standout feature. A wall of windows overlooks the fairway, with mature palms framing the view and room for multiple seating areas. Enjoy coffee before heading out for a round of golf or wind down with sunset views after a day at the beach. The living and dining areas open to the lanai, creating space to gather with guests. Luxury vinyl flooring runs through the main living areas, and the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated. The primary bedroom features an en suite bath and direct access to the lanai. The second bedroom provides space for guests or a home office. The building's roof was recently replaced. In-unit laundry and covered parking add convenience, while the community's heated pool and spa give you options for staying close to home. Head out to nearby shops and restaurants, spend the day on Anna Maria Island, or take advantage of the area's golf courses. Imagine ending your day on the lanai as the sun sets over the fairway. Schedule your private showing to experience the view for yourself.
