Under contract-accepting backup offers. For the true Craftsman aficionado, this historic bungalow is a rare find. Painstakingly redesigned and restored by a skilled craftsman, every detail has been carefully preserved and elevated, creating a home that is as much a work of art as it is a residence. From its timeless architectural lines to the thoughtful updates, this is a treasure to behold. The wide, welcoming front porch sets the tone for what lies within. Step inside to discover the kind of craftsmanship old-house lovers dream of, including beautifully preserved hardwood floors that tell nearly a century of Bradenton's story. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with granite countertops and rich wood cabinetry, blending modern convenience with historic charm. At the heart of the home is the front rocking-chair porch, where river breezes drift through the neighborhood and neighbors stop to visit. This is the kind of walkable, front-porch community that has become increasingly rare-a place where people know each other and life moves at a more enjoyable pace. Bungalow living encourages simplicity, comfort, and an intentional use of space, and this home embodies that philosophy in every corner. Equally appealing is its location in one of Bradenton's most beloved historic neighborhoods. Leave the car behind and bike or stroll to downtown Bradenton's Riverwalk, farmers market, theater, library, Village of the Arts, festivals, waterfront events, pubs, and restaurants. When you're ready for a day at the beach, the white sands of Anna Maria Island are just minutes away. Southern Living recently named Bradenton the #1 “Charming River Community,” and homes like this are the reason why. Lovingly restored and beautifully maintained, this historic bungalow offers the opportunity to own a piece of Bradenton's past while enjoying the very best of its vibrant present.
