606 84th Street NWBradenton, FL 34209Sale Price: $629,000

With almost a century of northwest Bradenton's history captured in the walls of this craftsman bungalow, the heart of the home just might be the front rocking porch where you can enjoy the warm Gulf breezes or stroll to the end of the street and watch the glorious nightly sunsets over Palma Sola Bay. "Mango Cottage" is named for its tropical color and an ode to the granddaddy mango tree providing mangos and shade in the backyard. You will not be disappointed to find the characteristics and details that old-house lovers seek, solid hardwood floors with the patina that you can only get with 100 years of life. The updates were smartly done to keep the character of days gone by and provide the amenities we have come to expect, an open kitchen, granite countertops, updated bath fixtures and kitchen fixtures. The home is currently a vacation rental, and its coastal design furnishings are included and is turnkey. The adjacent building lot is also available.
