Book your one-of-a-kind private home WITH A DOCK on a deep water canal at an unbeatable price!
The Water's Edge is a charming two bedroom, one-and-a-half bath single family home nestled in south Bradenton's Bayshore Gardens neighborhood. It's the perfect spot for vacationers who want to spend lots of time exploring by boat, or for those who want easy, convenient access to everything the Sarasota/Bradenton area has to offer, from world-famous beaches on four ...nearby barrier islands, to a wide selection of performing and visual arts and everything in between. You can easily do it ALL from here!
Starting inside the house, you'll enjoy the fully updated kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar and dining area that seats four. The living room is comfortably furnished for watching movies or enjoying conversation with the family. Off to the side, a sun porch is a great spot to read, and features a queen sleeper sofa for additional guests.
One of the greatest things about ground floor living is how easy it is to enjoy your home! Just down the hall from the living area you'll find a spacious master bedroom with its own sitting area and a king bed. The guest bedroom, down the same hallway, has two twin beds. Both bedrooms offer guests their own televisions. The shared full bath has a combination tub and shower, with a half bath off the laundry area for those times when one bathroom just isn't enough!
And the comfortable living extends to the outside as well! The large breezeway isn't intended for vehicles, but is a great place to set up corn hole and other games. Across the carport from the kitchen you'll find the laundry room and that half bath. And at the back of the carport is a screened patio, complete with a ping-pong table, as well as a dining table that can seat six.
From the screened patio, make your way out to the back yard, where you can catch some rays and enjoy the sights and sounds of boats and birds on the canal. Sunrises are a treat from this vantage point! This is also a great place for the anglers in the family to set up shop. Catch dinner from the dock, and then prep it at the fish cleaning station!
Although the boat lift is not available for guest use, the rest of the sizeable dock is the perfect spot to tie up your boat so you'll be ready to spend your days on the water. If you bring your own boat, you can launch it nearby and keep the trailer in the driveway. Don't have your own boat? Not to worry! You can rent one nearby, because with access like this, you'll want to spend at least part of your vacation exploring the area by water. With deep water access, you can travel from your dock through the calm waters of Sarasota Bay and even out to the Gulf of Mexico! Why not visit the famous beaches of Longboat Key and Anna Maria by boat, rather than dealing with traffic! This area is also known as a kayak haven - you're only 8 houses from the bay and close to many sandbars and natural mangrove tunnels.
When you're ready to explore the area, you'll find excellent options in every direction, including fresh seafood from amazing restaurants accessible by land or sea. Dining by boat? Try Mar Vista at the north end of Longboat Key, and Tide Tables or the Swordfish Grill in Cortez. For days of enjoyment at the beach, Indian Beach Park has an observation deck, and is less than 5 miles away. The beaches of Anna Maria Island are about 20 minutes away by land or boat (depending on traffic, of course!). IMG Academy is a short 10 minute drive and less than 4 miles away. This is a rare, affordable find with a prime location within a short drive to just about everything you might want to do on your vacation!
There is a community park on the next block over on 26th street. It is called Bayshore Gardens Park and Recreational District. You can swim in the Olympic-sized swimming pool and enjoy the deck/patio area for a fee. There is a playground, basketball court, ball field, pavilions with BBQ grills, and a fishing pier with a cleaning station all free to use. You can also rent a slip at the marina or reserve the recreational hall for events.
Sleeps 4 to 6 people in one king, two twins, and one queen sleeper sofa.
PLEASE NOTE:
1. The boat lift is NOT available for guest use. However, the rest of the large dock is available for you to tie up your boat!
2. The owners ask that guests not park in the carport, as it ruins the finish on the floor. There is, however, plenty of parking available in the driveway. Additionally, trailers are welcome in the driveway!
3. If you're bringing your dog (pet fee will apply), they must be leashed when outside. All pet waste must be removed from property prior to departure.

Summary: Place was as described but asked for early check in a week early and day of, still hadn’t received check in information (it went to spam). When I called the person on the phone was short with me but said she would do what she could to get me in early, yet she never called me to tell me it was ready. I just went there at 4 and got in.

Summary: We had a great stay. The home was cool and inviting as we arrived with the AC running and TV's on. All the information was accurate and the dining and entertainment suggestions very helpful. We brought our 20ft bow-rider and loved being able to use the dock. It made getting out into the gulf super easy and fun. We really enjoyed our stay.
Katie B. Jul 18, 2024 08:33:01 PM
Summary: The property manager was amazing and so fast to respond when we had questions!
C J. Jul 18, 2023 04:23:41 AM
Summary: We loved staying here! Beautiful home with an amazing screened in patio and outdoor back deck! We all loved the ping pong table and played games daily. The patio has 2 celing fans with an additional plug in fan available, but could use 1 more in this Florida heat. Opening the automatic garage door during day hours helps the air flow tremendously. Home was very clean inside and out, AC systems worked great and the bed pillows were amazing! Appliances all worked great, as well as the washer and dryer. Other than an air fryer, home is equipped with all the dishes, utensils, and pots and pans you would need.The grill provided was more of a single person size so you may want to bring yours along. Overall great stay and would definitely go back!

Summary: We come annually for a guys week of fishing. This suited us wonderfully. The proximity to the gulf was very easy access and the food stores were very close as well. Thank you very much!!!

Daniel W. Aug 4, 2022 11:03:27 AM
Summary: Family of 5 enjoyed this property for it’s proximity to the Gulf by boat and for it’s space to chill after a long day in the sun. We brought our 20ft bay boat and easily fit the trailer in the driveway with our truck and room for one more vehicle. We used innovation marina (trailer estates, a few blocks away) to drop the boat in and Don Roehr public ramps in Sarasota to haul out. If you are over 6ft tall you will have trouble with ceiling fan heights at this property. Other than that, we enjoyed the amenities. Keys and Beaches are also very easy to get to by land.
Peter R. Jul 27, 2022 01:23:33 AM
Summary: We are a boat family and loved the location of marina and dock!!
Renetta G. Jul 11, 2022 08:20:22 PM
Summary: The property is quaintly decorated. Very clean, it did have an older closed up home odor, but nothing that candles, and air freshener could not handle. My husband and I enjoyed the outdoor sitting area every morning drinking coffee. My only complaint would be to receive notification when yard maintenance is coming. Otherwise the stay was awesome, we would stay again.
Jessica R. Apr 20, 2022 06:48:18 AM
Summary: Absolutely amazing, clean property that was better than we expected!!! 1000/10 rating!!! We will be back!
