Beyond a picturesque, tree-canopied bridge, discover a private waterfront retreat in Hidden Lagoon, an intimate enclave of just 12 boating homes along the Braden River. Framed by mature palms and lush tropical landscaping, this newer custom residence blends contemporary luxury with the relaxed elegance of Florida living. With Gulf access, strong rental income, and no HOA, it offers an exceptional combination of lifestyle and flexibility. Featuring three bedrooms, four baths, and a versatile den with a closet, the home welcomes you with light-filled interiors, 8-foot doors, a modern fireplace, and expansive glass openings overlooking the pool. The open kitchen anchors the living space with an oversized waterfall island, Samsung appliances, double ovens, and a sleek cooktop with statement hood—an inviting setting for gathering and entertaining. A thoughtfully designed split floor plan provides privacy for owners and guests. The primary suite opens directly to the pool terrace and features dual walk-in closets, double vanities, and a spacious walk-in shower. A separate guest wing offers a private entrance, full kitchen, living area, laundry, and dedicated parking. Its flexible configuration allows a one- or two-bedroom lock-off arrangement for visiting guests, multigenerational living, or income-producing accommodations. Outdoors, a sparkling pool, fully equipped summer kitchen, and shaded seating areas create a secluded setting for leisurely afternoons and alfresco evenings. Follow the waterfront pier to your private dock, complete with a 15,000-pound boat lift and kayak launch. Cruise the Braden River to the Manatee River and onward to the Gulf, enjoying fishing, wildlife, and waterfront adventures along the way. A two-car garage and paver driveways complete the property. Close to downtown Bradenton’s restaurants, shops, Riverwalk, and cultural attractions, this peaceful retreat also offers convenient access to Sarasota, Gulf beaches, and I-75. Whether enjoying morning coffee beside the water, an afternoon on the boat, or sunset entertaining by the pool, this home brings the Florida waterfront lifestyle to life.
