Welcome to the Cottages at San Casciano, a quiet enclave in Bradenton where this single-story home sits on a private corner lot bordered by lush hedgerow and a wide, open pond. Recent updates make it truly move-in ready, including a roof just about a year old, a brand-new dishwasher, fresh carpet in both bedrooms, a freshly painted interior, and an updated primary bath with a frameless glass shower door. The work is done, so you can simply settle in and enjoy the water. Inside, the open great room features soaring vaulted ceilings, easy-care tile flooring, and an abundance of natural light. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area and a kitchen anchored by rich espresso cabinetry, generous counter space, a gas range, and a breakfast bar built for casual gatherings. Sliding glass doors off the dining area open to the extended paver patio, connecting indoor and outdoor living with ease. Tucked privately at the rear, the spacious primary suite is a true retreat with plush carpeting, a tray ceiling, and French doors that open right to the patio and pond. Its en-suite bath offers a dual-sink vanity and a separate glass-enclosed tiled shower, while a comfortable second bedroom and full guest bath sit on the opposite side of the home for ideal separation. The outdoor space is where this home sets itself apart. The fully fenced yard and extended paver patio deliver privacy, framed by mature greenery on one side and uninterrupted water views on the other. It is the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening grilling, or simply unwinding to the calm of the pond. An EV charger is located in the garage ready for your electric vehicle as well. Beyond the lot, the established community offers a tranquil setting that stays remarkably convenient. You are minutes from I-75, shopping, and dining, with the Manatee River, downtown Bradenton, and the Gulf Coast beaches of Anna Maria Island all within easy reach. Come experience the rare blend of privacy, water views, and location that makes this one feel like home. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
