About this home
Turnkey coastal living awaits in this fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo nestled within the sought-after Runaway Bay community on Bradenton Beach. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, second home, or investment property, this move-in ready unit checks every box. The primary suite features a king-size bed configuration and a private ensuite with a spacious walk-in shower. The second bedroom offers flexible sleeping arrangements with twin beds and convenient access to the hallway bath, which includes a shower/tub combination. Both bedrooms are bright, well-appointed, and freshly updated. A complete top-to-bottom renovation sets this unit apart — new LVP flooring in bedrooms, fresh paint, stylish finishes, and a fully remodelled kitchen with stainless steel appliances. The private patio provides a peaceful outdoor retreat with serene surroundings. Runaway Bay residents enjoy private beach access just steps away, leading to miles of pristine white sand along the Gulf of Mexico. Community amenities include a heated pool, fitness center, and tennis/pickleball courts.
Local Insight
At $486/sqft for a 1978 condo in an AE flood zone, you're paying a premium that hinges entirely on that 10.81-acre lot—verify exactly what you're entitled to own versus common area, because that acreage claim is unusual for a typical condo unit and could significantly affect your actual value. The lack of HOA is a genuine plus, but the flood zone means mandatory insurance costs that should be factored into your true carrying expenses, and you'll want a detailed flood history and elevation certificate before committing. Location-wise, Bradenton Beach is desirable, but at this price point for an older 2-bed with dated construction, you're betting on the land upside rather than the unit itself.
