Welcome home to this lovingly cared for and thoughtfully upgraded 2 Bedroom/2 Bathroom first floor condo in the beautiful 55+ community of Desoto Square Villas. The home features a bright and spacious floor plan with gleaming bamboo-look laminate floors throughout (no carpet!). You'll love the thoughtfully upgraded kitchen, with beautiful white painted cabinets, a designer granite-look countertop, sleek stainless appliances and no more drop-down ceiling! The kitchen is open to the breakfast room, where you'll enjoy the tranquil view of the lake and fountain just outside. That gorgeous view continues as you enter the primary suite, with a large picture window overlooking the lake. Lots of natural light fills the large ensuite, with a walk-in closet and a beautifully upgraded vanity and shower. The secondary bedroom is large, with room for a king-sized bed, and features a double closet and access to the 2nd bathroom through the hallway. The screened lanai is a serene retreat, where you can enjoy mornings and evenings watching the birds and other wildlife in your maintenance free Florida paradise. DeSoto Square Villas is a well-kept 55+ community in the heart of Bradenton, where residents can enjoy lounging by the community pool, playing shuffleboard or tennis, or attend activities at the clubhouse. The community is close to many wonderful shopping and dining venues, including downtown Bradenton's charming main street and Riverwalk, where you can hop on a ferry ride on the river to Anna Maria Island or enjoy an evening under the stars at Bishop Planetarium. You're also less than 2 miles from LECOM park, where you can watch the Pittsburg Pirates hold their spring training, and the Bradenton Marauders play summer baseball. St. Pete and Tampa are just over the skyway, less than an hour's drive, and Sarasota's arts and culture are just 30 minutes south.
