About This Property
FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY FOR SOMEONE LOOKING TO LIVE IN THE 3/2 AND OFFSET THEIR MORTGAGE WITH THE RENTAL INCOME FROM THE 2/1. This durable concrete block duplex (effective year built 1981!) offers two separate living spaces with separate entrances. The 2 bedroom/1 bath rear unit and the 3 bedroom/2 bath front unit share 1,544sf under air. Both units have matching tile floors throughout and their own AC units (both were replaced in 2024). While both units were updated in 2017 with all-new kitchens, stylish baths, modern light/plumbing fixtures, and fresh paint inside and out; each unit is in need of some TLC...but it’s nothing an experienced investor hasn’t seen before. Each unit has its own laundry hookups—the rear unit’s is on the covered lanai; the front unit has a designated laundry room. Each has its own water heater, but they share an electric and water meter. No deed restrictions and no HOA, so boats, RVs, trucks, and landscape trailers are welcome. And with a double-wide and extra-long 19ft x 100ft driveway, parking is never a problem. Location-wise, the heart of Bradenton can’t be beat—it’s city living in a quaint neighborhood… Ballard Elementary (2 min walk), Downtown Bradenton and all its cool hangouts (1 mile away), the Riverwalk, Village of the Arts (2 blocks away), LECOM Park to catch a Pittsburgh Pirates game (3 min walk), and world-famous Gulf beaches on Anna Maria Island (under 9 miles/20 min away). This is a flexible income-producing opportunity. Live in one and rent the other, rent both for strong cash flow, or create a multigenerational setup…this property adapts to whatever you need. Investor-friendly city rental policies would also make this a great short-term rental. With one unit vacant (2/1) and the other leased on a month-to-month basis (3/2), you’ll have total control from day one. Whether you’re an investor seeking a solid return, a homeowner looking to offset your mortgage, or a buyer wanting flexibility without HOA restrictions, this duplex checks every box, so opportunities like this don’t last long. COME SEE THE POTENTIAL for yourself. MOTIVATED SELLER
