Some homes impress with finishes. Others stand apart because of their setting. This beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath villa offers both. This single-level residence combines quality craftsmanship, thoughtful updates, and the relaxed elegance that defines Florida Gulf Coast living. Surrounded by mature oaks, tropical landscaping, and the peaceful beauty of Sarasota Bay, you'll enjoy the privacy of a secluded neighborhood while remaining just minutes from everything that makes the Bradenton/Sarasota area desirable. A gated paver courtyard creates an inviting first impression and a private outdoor living space that's perfect for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or simply enjoying Florida's year-round climate. Just steps away, the community pool and spa provide the perfect place to relax without the maintenance of a private pool. Inside, the home has been tastefully remodeled with an emphasis on both style and functionality. The kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, featuring custom wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, casual seating, and an ideal gathering place. Vaulted ceilings and expansive hurricane-impact windows fill the great room with natural light while framing lush tropical views. Wood-look porcelain tile flooring flows throughout the primary living spaces, creating a clean, cohesive design that is both elegant and durable. That being said, the home is "Hurricane Ready" upgraded for your comfort and protection. The Florida room extends the living space and overlooks beautifully landscaped grounds, offering a peaceful setting to read, entertain, or simply enjoy the surrounding greenery. Beyond, a private patio creates another inviting outdoor retreat. The flexible third bedroom easily adapts to your lifestyle, serving equally well as a guest suite, home office, media room, or creative space. The spacious primary suite offers direct access to the Florida room and features a beautifully remodeled bath with quality finishes designed for everyday comfort. Wild Oak Bay remains one of the area's best-kept secrets. Private roads meander beneath a canopy of majestic live oaks while tropical gardens, tranquil lagoons, and native wildlife create an atmosphere unlike nearly any other community in West Bradenton. Residents regularly enjoy sightings of pelicans, herons, egrets, turtles, dolphins, and the occasional bald eagle, all just moments from the shoreline of Sarasota Bay. IMG Academy, IMG Golf Club, and State College of Florida are just a couple of minutes away, while Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, and the cultural attractions, restaurants, and waterfront of downtown Sarasota are all within 12 miles. Shopping, dining, healthcare, SRQ Airport, and everyday conveniences are equally close, making this an ideal primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment property. The oversized two-car garage provides exceptional storage, easily accomodating beach gear, bicycles, kayaks, or even a golf cart for trips to the nearby golf club. Wild Oak Bay is also pet friendly and welcomes large dogs, an increasingly rare feature among condominium communities. Investors will appreciate the ability to lease without a waiting period. Beautifully updated. Exceptionally maintained. Ideally located. This is more than a villa—it's an opportunity to enjoy one of the Gulf Coast's most distinctive communities and a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.
