Property Description

Welcome to Cortez Villas, a highly desirable community in the heart of West Bradenton, ideally located near shopping, dining, and parks—and just 15 minutes from Anna Maria Island and Florida’s stunning Gulf beaches. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa offers a bright, open feel with vaulted ceilings and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. The recently renovated kitchen features an inviting eat-in space, perfect for casual meals, while the dining room/den/bonus room provides flexible living options for entertaining, working from home, or relaxing. The interior has been freshly painted, creating a clean, move-in-ready feel, and the home is being offered turn-key furnished for ultimate convenience. Enjoy the Florida lifestyle year-round from the screened-in back porch, recently re-screened and overlooking a grassy area with a concrete privacy wall—a peaceful and private outdoor retreat. This home is located in Section 8 of Cortez Villas, known for having the lowest HOA fees in the community at just $370 per month. The HOA includes water, sewer, trash, cable, internet, clubhouse, and pool access, offering exceptional value. The building features the third nail for added structural peace of mind, is not located in a high-risk flood zone, and section 8 is financially stable and has never had an assessment. Whether you’re seeking a full-time residence, seasonal retreat, or low-maintenance Florida living, this villa delivers comfort, convenience, and peace of mind in a prime Bradenton location.
