Welcome to Pine Meadow, a quiet, established NW Bradenton neighborhood where island beaches, nature preserves, shopping, and dining are all minutes from home. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom pool home offers 2,107 square feet with the major updates already done, including a newer metal roof, a newer AC system, and solar panels owned outright that offset daytime electricity costs, making it an easy move for anyone relocating to the Gulf Coast. Double entry doors open to a designer-decorated interior with vaulted ceilings, fresh paint, all new lighting, and high end ceiling fans. The dining room features a two-story window wall, and the living room opens through French doors to a private patio. The kitchen offers white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a glass mosaic backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a large island with seating, flowing into a bay window breakfast nook overlooking the pool and a family room with a wood-burning fireplace, tiled surround, and wood beam mantel. The primary suite sits on its own side with a vaulted ceiling, sliders to a private patio, a walk-in closet with custom shelving, a second lockable closet, and a bath with dual sinks, a skylight, a stone-tiled step-down shower with a river rock floor, and a private toilet room with pool access. Two more bedrooms share an updated bath with a tiled tub and shower. Whole house water filtration and soft water, an air-conditioned garage, and mapped hurricane shutters round it out. The backyard is a true tropical oasis. The very large heated saltwater pool is framed by palm and agave planters along the water and offers a shallow Baja shelf for kids, bench seats with jets, lighting, and a pool area shower, all under an expansive screened cage with a tight weave that keeps out no-see-ums and mosquitoes. Tall palms and lush greenery surround it for privacy. Sliding glass doors open to four separate outdoor seating areas, including a covered lanai, with pavers throughout. The no-mow landscaping features mature palms including coconut palms, agave, bromeliads, and specimen plants, with a side yard walkway beneath a weeping bottlebrush tree. Irrigation, landscape lighting, five exterior cameras, and a video doorbell all run on smart controls you can manage remotely. The yard is privacy fenced with two new custom aluminum-framed gates, and a shaded kayak rack holds two kayaks. There is off-street parking for six cars, plus potential boat or RV parking with minor modification. The home sits in Flood Zone X, and the voluntary, well-managed neighborhood association has a small yearly fee and allows short-term rentals. Anna Maria Island's beaches, waterfront restaurants, and shops are a short drive west, with Robinson Preserve close by. Publix, Target, and local dining along Manatee Avenue and Cortez Road are minutes away. The home can also be sold turnkey for an easy transition. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER. INQUIRE FOR MORE DETAILS.**
