11 Braden Castle Dr, Bradenton, FL 34208

PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Old Florida charm abounds in this beautiful, historic home in Braden Castle Park on the Braden River as it opens into the Manatee. The entire neighborhood is on the National Register of Historic Places! This welcoming, turn-key furnished home was built when the community was established by the Tin Can Campers in the 1920's. Check out the attached 3D VIRTUAL TOUR (click circles to advance, hold down left mouse button and drag to spin). Extensive upgrades were completed in the late 1990's including wiring and plumbing replacement. The 1st floor was reconfigured, downstairs master bedroom and bathroom added. The resulting open floor plan is a welcome enhancement over the typical small rooms found in most homes of this age while still retaining its historical charm. The 2nd floor provides lots of space for guests and includes a light, bright sitting room with views of the water. A balcony off the 4th bedroom provides a place to enjoy the outdoors from your own private perch! When you venture out, you can enjoy socializing with your neighbors in this friendly, 55+ community that combines the best of yesteryear with the conveniences and services of today. There is a fishing pier, boat ramp, private boat docks and recreation facilities with many activities for residents. Browse the library, play a game of pool, work out in the exercise room, or challenge new friends to shuffle board. There is always something happening here, just check out the community bulletin board for events that suit you!
