Welcome to Wildewood Springs—one of Bradenton’s most iconic and nature-rich condominium communities—where Old Florida charm meets modern, turnkey coastal living. Located just minutes from the sugar-sand beaches of Anna Maria Island and ideally positioned between Bradenton and Sarasota, this beautifully remodeled and fully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa-style condo offers an exceptional opportunity for a full-time residence, seasonal retreat, or lock-and-leave Florida getaway. Set within a lush tropical sanctuary designated as a Florida Audubon Society Wildlife and Bird Sanctuary, Wildewood Springs is renowned for its century-old oak canopy, flowering trees, serene lakes, and winding walking paths. The community features seven resort-style swimming pools, multiple spas, tennis and pickleball courts, and a peaceful atmosphere that feels worlds away—yet remains close to everything. Inside, this light-filled residence lives like a private retreat. The open-concept floor plan showcases a remodeled kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, and modern finishes that blend seamlessly with the home’s relaxed coastal style. Additional upgrades include updated flooring, crown molding, and thoughtful design details throughout. The HVAC system is under three years old and maintained under contract, and the property has been lightly used as a vacation home since renovation. The primary suite opens to a tranquil enclosed lanai, surrounded by tropical landscaping—perfect for morning coffee, reading, or unwinding at the end of the day. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with tiled showers and granite vanities, offering a clean, modern feel. An extra-large storage closet and deeded carport add everyday convenience to this low-maintenance lifestyle. Wildewood Springs is a pet-friendly, well-managed, and financially stable condominium community, with monthly HOA fees that include high-speed internet, cable, water, sewer, pest control, and night security patrol—providing peace of mind and predictable ownership costs. Ideally located near golf courses, shopping, dining, the State College of Florida, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and the Gulf Coast’s most celebrated beaches, this immaculate condo offers a rare blend of natural beauty, resort amenities, and modern comfort. Whether you’re searching for a primary residence in Bradenton, a turnkey seasonal home, or a Florida retreat surrounded by nature, this Wildewood Springs condo delivers an authentic connection to coastal living—refined, relaxed, and ready to enjoy.
