4504 22nd Avenue WBradenton, FL 34209Sale Price: $405,000

This property is a true treasure! It is tough for the seller to decide what will be the most missed feature of the home. Certainly the tropical yard with mature bamboo, mangos, pineapples, papayas, vintage rose bushes and bougainvillea is at the top of the list. With an amazing cottage in the back, this is a gardener's dream (it even has electricity supplied). From the backyard, light floods into an amazing Florida room, so peaceful the owner has taken this as the "suite spot." Look out the french doors to that incredible view of the glistening custom inground pool and spa with waterfall, sprayers, and even hand inlaid turtles to greet you. Surrounded by the lush landscaping, you just need to close your eyes, say 'om' and start relaxing! Not to be forgotten, touted design pioneer of the 1960s, Ruth Richmond crafted homes like this which have an indelible legacy. Original features like the lucite door knobs with gold infusions are highly collectible, and can be seen in this quaint property allowing you to place your hands on a piece of history everyday! With remodeled bathrooms featuring vintage seashell faucet, and one of a kind accents like the hanging light fixtures, this is such a charming spot. Located on a large lot in the heart of Bradenton, and no HOAs, there's plenty of space to create your own magic. A real slice of paradise, only 3 miles from Palma Sola Bay, and under 8 miles to beaches via Cortez or Manatee. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own your own personal oasis with beautiful historic touches throughout!
