Rare opportunity to own 5 private acres in the heart of Manatee County featuring two separate homes, a detached two-car garage, attached carport, and a large storage barn with electricity. Whether you're looking for a multi-generational living setup, rental income potential, or space for a home-based business, this unique property offers endless possibilities. The main residence offers nearly 2,000 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious family room designed for comfortable everyday living. The charming cottage features 1 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, a full laundry room, and a large living area. The enclosed carport could easily serve as a second bedroom, office, or flex space. Both homes are connected to county water and have their own separate septic systems. Bring your RVs, boats, trailers, work vehicles, and equipment-there's plenty of room to spread out with no shortage of parking or storage. The rear portion of the property is heavily wooded, creating a peaceful natural setting with abundant wildlife and added privacy.
