About 903 20th Ave W

Welcome to 903 20th Ave W, a rare waterfront retreat where timeless design meets coastal adventure—all with the peace of mind that comes from a home that has sustained NO damage or water intrusion during recent storms. Nestled along an 80-foot-wide deep-water canal with direct, bridge-free access to the Gulf and Bay, this property is a boater’s dream. The 14' x 60' composite dock is fully equipped with water, power, lighting, and a 7,500 lb boat lift for vessels up to 27 feet. Have a larger boat? No problem—the dock maintains a 5-foot depth at low tide and includes a 15/30/50-amp power station to accommodate boats up to 60 feet. Beyond its boating amenities, this home offers a private resort-style atmosphere in your own backyard. The zero-maintenance riprap seawall, lush tropical landscaping, and dockside retreat with cozy swings and Bluetooth speakers make it easy to relax while watching manatees glide by or taking in stunning sunset views. Anglers will appreciate the 320 lb/day ice machine and 10-cubic-foot chest freezer, while the heated and cooled pool with misting fans ensures year-round enjoyment. Inside, elegance and comfort continue with ¾” solid rosewood flooring, a wood-burning fireplace, and a sun-drenched Florida room that showcases panoramic canal views through eight sliding glass doors. The spacious primary suite offers a spa-inspired en-suite bath with Norstone stacked stone shower walls, custom vanities, and beadboard ceiling details. A flexible bonus room features a built-in home office, wine storage, laundry cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry with pull-out shelving—perfect for multitasking with style. Additional features include hurricane shutters, plantation shutters, a durable metal roof, integrated speakers and security cameras, and an 8' x 16' cedar-lined shed for extra storage. This property is not only beautifully maintained but also built to withstand the elements—delivering both luxury and long-term peace of mind. Ideally located near Sarasota, Bradenton, St. Pete, and Tampa, you'll enjoy easy access to major highways, international airports, beaches, shopping, dining, and the Bradenton Yacht Club. With no HOA restrictions, this home is perfectly suited as a full-time residence, seasonal escape, or short-term rental investment. Don’t just drive by—schedule your private showing today and experience the best of Florida waterfront living, stress-free and storm-secure.
