5316 Bimini Dr, Bradenton, FL 34210

This For Sale By Owner is a boater's paradise ... to see a VIDEO of the boat ride from here to the Gulf, click on "Virtual Tours" just to the left and then on "View Video." Located on the largest of only 5 bay-front lots in Coral Shores (the rest are on canals -- nice and close to the bay but no bay views). This one is simply superb. Bring your boat and put it right on the 10,000 pound lift, ready for a jaunt whenever the mood strikes you. It's 4 minutes, no kidding, to the Intracoastal Waterway, and another 3 minutes to Longboat Pass, Bradenton Beach ... some of the most beautiful turquoise waters anywhere in SW FLorida. Don't believe it? LOOK AT THE VIDEO taken by boat while making that trip. Oh ... the house? Updated everywhere, from the kitchen to the baths to the tile roof to the hi-tech argon-filled high R-value windows ... this home is a treasure. You're close to the beaches, without having to live on the beach and deal with the crazy beach traffic every day. Close to shopping, restaurants ... close to airports at Tampa and Sarasota-Bradenton. Jump on this one. TO GET THERE BY BOAT From the Gulf of Mexico, enter Longboat Pass (between Longboat Key to the south and Anna Maria Island to the north). Once past the drawbridge, follow the marked channel approximately northeast to the Intracoastal Waterway. Turn to starboard to proceed southbound on the ICW a few hundred feet to Marker 46. Leave the ICW on a bearing of about 130 degrees magnetic, go about 0.6 nautical miles until the marked channel is abeam. Turn to port and follow the marked channel in to Coral Shores to Markers 23 & 24. Look east to see your new home, just to the right of the large 2-story house. You found it Paradise.
