Property Description

**STEP BACK IN TIME AND EXPERIENCE THE CHARM OF OLD FLORIDA WITH THE EXCITEMENT OF A THRIVING VACATION RENTAL OPPORTUNITY!** Welcome to River House Retreat, a beautiful historic home that captures the timeless character and architectural charm of the early 1900s while offering the comforts of modern Florida living! Nestled in the heart of Bradenton, just a few blocks from vibrant downtown and steps from the scenic Bradenton Riverwalk, this distinctive 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a private swimming pool offers something truly special. From its welcoming front porch and classic architectural details to the **original flooring throughout the home**, River House tells a story of a bygone era when craftsmanship, character, and charm made every home unique. The beautiful original floors add warmth, authenticity, and a sense of history that simply cannot be replicated in today's construction. Imagine enjoying your morning coffee on the front porch, taking an evening stroll along the Riverwalk, or spending sunny Florida afternoons relaxing by your private pool. Inside, the home's spacious layout provides plenty of room for family, friends, and guests to gather, unwind, and create lasting memories. But the beauty of River House Retreat goes far beyond its historic charm! Currently operating as an established Airbnb vacation rental with **Superhost recognition**, this property offers an exciting opportunity for investors looking to step into an existing, very successful short-term rental operation. With documented rental history and reservations already on the calendar extending into 2027, the potential to continue welcoming guests and generating rental income makes this property even more appealing! Recent improvements include a roof replacement in 2022, HVAC updates, four mini-split systems, electrical upgrades, a renovated saltwater pool with Pebble Sheen coating, and updated pool equipment, offering valuable improvements while preserving the home's historic character. Location is another incredible highlight! Just moments from downtown Bradenton's restaurants, boutiques, entertainment, and waterfront attractions, and within easy reach of the beautiful Gulf beaches of Anna Maria Island, this property places you close to everything that makes Florida living so desirable. Whether you envision a charming primary residence, a personal vacation retreat, or an income-producing investment, River House Retreat offers the opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds. Historical rental income and future booking information are available upon request. **OWN A PIECE OF BRADENTON'S HISTORY, ENJOY THE FLORIDA LIFESTYLE, AND EXPLORE THE INCOME POTENTIAL OF THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND PROPERTY! Schedule your private showing today! Days are limited as this is ACTIVELY booked**
