This absolutely stunning 1898 Queen Anne Victorian home located in the heart of Bradenton’s historic district offers a unique combination timeless elegance, modern luxury, and exceptional income potential as an active short-term rental. Just steps away from downtown’s lively restaurants, shops and entertainment, and a short drive to Anna Maria Island’s world-class beaches, this property is both an investor’s dream and a homeowner’s paradise. From the moment you arrive, the 508-square-foot wraparound porch invites you to slow down and soak in the charm, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Step inside the main home and be transported to another era, where 2,773 square feet of exquisite craftsmanship shines through soaring ceilings, original wood floors, intricate woodwork, and leaded glass windows. The home boasts five spacious bedrooms, two beautifully updated bathrooms, and multiple living areas, including a grand formal dining room, a cozy sitting room and an elegant living room. For an extra touch of magic, guests and family will love the Harry Potter-themed game room, offering a unique and memorable experience for all ages. The newly refurbished chef’s kitchen features beautifully refinished cabinets with sleek quartz countertops. Fresh interior paint and mural wallpaper throughout bring this charming residence to life while essential updates such as a new roof in 2021 and new HVAC in 2017 provide piece of mind. But this property doesn’t stop there—included in the sale is a fully renovated, 350 square-foot carriage house above the detached garage, offering a fully furnished and turnkey additional living space with a full bath. Ideal for guests, in-laws, or extra rental income, this separate structure enhances the home’s appeal and versatility, all while bringing in an average of $48k in Airbnb income anually. Downstairs from the carriage house is a second laundry room, a convenient 1/2 bath with outdoor shower. With a total of 3,093 square feet of combined living space between the main home and carriage house, there is plenty of room for everyone. Outside, your private oasis awaits. Lounge by the heated saltwater pool, gather around the fire pit for s’mores on a cool evening, or enjoy drinks at the mini replica bar, the ultimate spot to entertain family and friends. Whether you're looking for a forever home steeped in history, a lucrative turnkey short-term rental, or a blend of both, this Victorian masterpiece offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with all the modern comforts. You don't want to miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity so schedule your private showing today!
