~Zen Waters~ A Riverfront Retreat Where Coastal Living Meets Tranquility..
Immerse yourself in the serene rhythm of riverfront living in this custom built coastal retreat on the Manatee River. Designed to embrace stillness, nature, and an effortless indooroutdoor lifestyle, this home offers panoramic water views from nearly every room, whether youre unwinding on the wraparound porch, greeting the morning from the owners suite balcony, or relaxing on the private deck of the guesthouse above the oversized two car garage.
Set on nearly one acre of lush, park like grounds, the property feels like a secluded Old Florida sanctuary. Ancient 100+ year old live oaks, breezy palms, and tropical gardens create a meditative backdrop that enhances the homes peaceful, retreat like atmosphere.
Inspired by coastal architecture and elevated with thoughtful craftsmanship, the main home features 3,411 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths, while a separate 600 sq ft studio with full bath offers flexible space for guests, a creative hideaway, or a private wellness retreat. Over 3,500 sq ft of covered porches invite you to slow down, breathe deeply, and live immersed in the river breeze.
Inside, a chefs kitchen with Viking commercial appliances, granite counters, wood cabinetry, and a walk in pantry anchors the home. A double sided gas fireplace warms both the living and family rooms, while rich hardwood floors and detailed millwork bring timeless comfort throughout. Guests bedrooms with custom closets and feature either water or garden views.
Upstairs, the owners retreat offers a spacious bedroom, flexible sitting/exercise/office alcove, two walk in closets fitted with custom California closet systems, and a spa like bath with footed tub, separate shower, and dual sinks. A private wet bar with refrigerator and a balcony overlooking the river complete this elevated sanctuary.
The propertys resort style amenities deepen the sense of escape: a saltwater pool and spa added in 2011, whole home audio, central vac, and modern smart home features. Built in 1999 to the 2004 code and updated in 2011, the home includes impact rated windows, doors, and garage doors, plus newer Trane HVAC systems (main house 2020, studio 2019). The elevated design protected this home from severe flooding and a full crawl space for maintenance and inspection. Also promoting whole body wellness with a premium reverse osmosis system, a full home salt based water filtration, and a rejuvenating private spa experience featuring both a sauna and cold plunge all designed to elevate daily living and support optimal health.
A 320 foot dock with a 10,000 lb lift extends your living space into the river itself, a quiet place to meditate at sunrise, watch dolphins and manatees drift by, or cast a fishing line as pelicans glide overhead. 275 sqft of climate controlled and dehumidified storage space will keep all your gear ready and protected.
All of this tranquility is perfectly balanced by proximity to vibrant coastal life: minutes to downtown St. Pete, the Bradenton Riverwalk, and the Gulf beaches, as well as dining, shopping, and cultural destinations.
More than a home, this is a waterfront sanctuary designed for mindful living, creative inspiration, and unforgettable moments on the Manatee River.
