Price Reduced $20,000. Sellers Are Motivated!!! Newer home (2018) located in an established country neighborhood is now available in the tight-knit community of Elwood Park that initially was a 1500-acre farming community near the Braden River. With great curb appeal, you enter the covered front porch into the large foyer and immediately notice the open floor plan. The low maintenance 18” ceramic tile flooring runs throughout the home. Offering a split floor plan, to the left of the foyer are two bedrooms (one currently used as a den) and the guest bath. A custom computer nook is out of sight to guests while allowing a great view of the living/kitchen areas from this alcove. A built-in shelf in the living room serves to display favorite items or storing books. French doors open out to the screened back porch (9’ x 21’) and fenced back yard, complete with a fire pit. The private owner’s suite is just off the living room. The spacious kitchen features Granite counter tops, wood cabinets, a double sink, and island. The laundry room is off the kitchen and has a pocket door for “out of sight” but easy access for the homeowner. The owner added insulation during construction to the interior walls. There is a full house generator that can run the entire home and two 40-gallon propane tanks. The thermostat and water heater are Wi-Fi (smart) compatible. The home sets on a quarter of an acre and is not in a flood zone. The fenced back yard has a 10’x20′ pre-wired shed for added storage or workshop. With NO HOA or CDD fees, secure the parking of your boat, trailer or RV behind the chain link gate. Elwood Park, as one of the oldest communities in Manatee County, is also interesting and may offer historical significance. This property offers the benefits of modern construction and amenities while also having the charm and character of an older neighborhood. Unique architectural styles add to the character of the community. Close proximity to shopping, restaurants and entertainment venues. The new 44th Ave Extension is just a mile away making commuting a snap to I-75, West Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch and elsewhere. Schedule a private viewing before it is too late!
