Description
PRICE IMPROVED! A One-of-a-Kind Coastal Cottage with Circus History
Stop looking and start living! Own a unique piece of Florida history in the heart of Paradise Bay. This "cute as a button" cottage is the only stick-built home in the community and famously served as the summer retreat for a Barnum & Bailey circus performer.
Meticulously refreshed for 2025, this home perfectly blends vintage charm with modern, move-in-ready convenience.
Why You’ll Love It:
Artistic Curb Appeal: Features newly installed vinyl siding on front of home accented by hand-painted shutters by a local artist.
Modern Interior: Enjoy an airy, open-concept layout with 8-foot ceilings, coastal tones, and crisp white wainscoting.
Fresh & Durable: Stunning new decorative epoxy-coated floors (2024) flow throughout, beautiful and effortless to maintain.
2025 Major Updates: Brand-new water heater, bathroom vanity/sink, ceiling fans, and stainless steel fixtures.
Bonus Features: 2023 aluminum storage shed (8x5), off-street parking for two cars, and existing park approval for a new unattached front deck! Manatee County approval required.
Live the Resort Lifestyle:
Paradise Bay Estates is a premier 55+ waterfront co-op currently undergoing a vibrant transformation. You’re just steps away from the massive heated pool and spa, shuffleboard courts, cornhole, fitness center, and the soon-to-be-renovated Recreation Hall. Pickleball, bocci and the library are only a few more steps away! Boaters will love the private ramp and 97-slip marina (waitlist), all located just minutes from the world-class beaches of Anna Maria Island and historic Cortez Village.
Whether you're looking for a winter retreat or a full-time slice of paradise, this unique "stick-built" gem is ready for you.
