Calling all old house lovers - this charming vintage home is just waiting for your magic vision! Nestled among 100 year old Oaks and on a generous 100 x 125 lot in the desirable Historic River District, this property exudes so much whimsy and charm. Originally built sometime between 1913 and 1923, it features original hardwood floors, a large archway between living and dining, and a wood burning brick fireplace. There are two generous bedrooms with 6ft wide closets, and a 13x10 third bedroom (closet was borrowed by the kitchen) plus a 10x9 front artist studio or home office. The majority of the home boasts 9ft ceiling height and picture rail moldings as well. The historic River District neighborhood is a coveted location just West of downtown Bradenton, north of Manatee Avenue and along the Manatee River. Imagine picturesque waterfront sunrise and sunset views from the end of your street. You will also have a front row seat to 4th of July fireworks and the annual DeSoto Heritage Parade! There is so much to do and see in Bradenton, and Anna Maria Island beaches are just a short drive away. This is your opportunity to put down roots in a forever neighborhood while treasuring the architecture and story of years past. There is some deferred maintenance, so expect to bring the home up to today's standards upon purchase. The seller has a recent boundary survey to share with prospective buyers. There is ample room to add to the home's footprint and include a pool.
