1018 Overlook Court, Bradenton, FL

Why settle for a canal when you can have a lake (WITH access to the Gulf)? Wake up to soft water views, warm morning light, and the kind of peace that makes home feel like an escape. From the moment you arrive through the gated entry and pull onto the sweeping paver driveway with professional lighting, everything about this property feels designed to slow life down in the best possible way. Open the wall of sliding glass doors and let the coastal breeze move through the living spaces. Spend quiet mornings with coffee overlooking the water, easy afternoons on the lanai, and evenings beside the saltwater pool as the waterfall spills into the background. And when you are ready to get out on the water, you do not have to wait for some future plan to make it happen. This home includes the boat, along with a private dock and 12,000 lb boat lift, so your waterfront lifestyle starts the moment you move in. Inside, the home blends warmth and function with thoughtful design throughout. Exposed wood ceiling beams bring character to the main living area, creating a space that feels both elevated and inviting. The kitchen has been beautifully refreshed with granite countertops, a gas range, neutral tile backsplash, and reverse osmosis water system. A dedicated office with French doors gives you privacy when needed, while the split layout offers a comfortable guest wing with two bedrooms connected by an updated Jack and Jill bath. The primary suite feels like its own retreat, highlighted by shiplap tray ceilings and a spa inspired bath with custom framed mirrors, a soaking tub, and a glass enclosed shower. Every space has been carefully considered to make daily living feel easy, comfortable, and refined. Beyond the home itself, Tidewater Preserve adds another layer to the lifestyle with gated entry and a resort style setting along the Manatee River. Residents enjoy access to resort style amenities that make it easy to stay active, social, and connected to the waterfront setting.
