Seen this home from the water? Now take a look inside.

For buyers looking for a true waterfront estate with scale, privacy and boating access, 2107 4th Street Ct W in Palmetto is now offered at $4,650,000.

More than 9,000 square feet under air, large waterfront views, a private dock, strong boating access, resort-style outdoor living and plenty of space for entertaining.

This part of Palmetto puts you close to the Manatee River, downtown Palmetto, Regatta Pointe Marina and Downtown Bradenton, with easy boating access toward Tampa Bay, Anna Maria Island and the Gulf.

It is also one of the reasons Palmetto continues to stand out for luxury buyers. Larger lots, established waterfront neighborhoods, unique homes and properties with real character are still part of the market here.

I have spent 20+ years working throughout Palmetto, Snead Island, Bradenton and the surrounding waterfront market, specializing in luxury, waterfront and unique properties.

Thinking about selling a waterfront, luxury or one-of-a-kind property? These homes require more than a sign and a standard MLS launch. Positioning, presentation, local knowledge and reaching the right buyer matter.

If you are considering a move, I would be happy to give you a clear idea of where your property fits in today’s market and how I would position it for the strongest result.

A Much Bigger DeSoto Bridge Could Be Coming

One of the biggest transportation changes in decades is being proposed for the connection between Bradenton and Palmetto.

FDOT is recommending a major expansion of the DeSoto Bridge and U.S. 41 corridor, with six regular travel lanes plus two express lanes. North and south of the bridge, those two express lanes would rise onto an elevated overpass, allowing through-traffic to bypass several busy downtown intersections. (Bradenton Magazine)

The concept is aimed at a growing problem: FDOT says approximately 47% of the traffic traveling through the Bradenton-Palmetto corridor is simply passing through the two cities, up from about 31% in earlier studies. (SWFL Roads)

Under the preferred plan, the DeSoto Bridge itself would ultimately carry six general-purpose lanes and two additional express lanes, along with shoulders and shared-use paths for pedestrians and cyclists. The elevated express portion could potentially be tolled. (Bradenton Magazine)

The project could also be built in phases. An earlier step could widen portions of U.S. 41 and reconstruct the DeSoto Bridge for six lanes before the elevated express lanes are added later. FDOT says funding for the entire project has not yet been secured. (Bradenton Magazine)

The full concept has recently been estimated at roughly $916 million, making this potentially one of the largest transportation investments Manatee County has seen. (Beacon Media)

For anyone who regularly makes the drive between Palmetto and Bradenton, this could dramatically change how traffic moves through downtown.

Would you rather see an eight-lane DeSoto Bridge with an elevated expressway—or do you think Manatee County needs another river crossing altogether?

And Yes, the photo is Ai, because it’s not built yet. Thank you to those that read the article before commenting🤣

The shopping center everyone loves to hate 🤣.

Creekside Commons in Parrish has actually been decades in the making. Benderson Development purchased the roughly 50-acre site at U.S. 301 and Erie Road in 2004 for about $2.12 million. Manatee County first approved plans for the shopping center in 2008, but the Great Recession put the project on hold. Revised plans were approved in 2014, with Walmart originally expected to anchor the center. Walmart later pulled out in 2017, and the project stalled again.

Momentum returned around 2020 when plans were filed for Lowe’s, and major site development began in 2021. Lowe’s opened in December 2022, followed by HomeGoods in April 2023 and Aldi that summer. Marshalls opened later in 2023, while restaurants, fitness, beauty and service businesses continued filling out the center.

Today, Creekside Commons has become one of the major retail hubs serving Parrish’s rapid residential growth, with businesses including Lowe’s, Aldi, HomeGoods, Marshalls, Ulta Beauty, Crunch Fitness, First Watch, Panera, Good Liquid Brewing, Aqua Tequila and others. Development is still evolving: a 2,500-square-foot Starbucks with a drive-thru is currently planned to open in spring 2027, which would be the first Starbucks location in Parrish.

A longtime Ellenton landmark is preparing for a major transformation.

The Ellenton Ice and Sports Complex, located at 5309 29th Street East, is moving forward with a planned $7 million renovation and expansion designed to significantly upgrade both the facility and the visitor experience. Plans include a third NHL-size ice rink, with the new sheet of ice currently targeted for August 2027.

The two-year improvement project is also expected to bring an NHL-level dry-land training center, upgraded gym geared toward hockey and figure skating, new lobby, upstairs restaurant, video replay room, ice treadmill, AI-assisted practice technology, new locker rooms and updated restrooms. Outside, the property is planned to receive new paint, landscaping, asphalt and signage.

Owner Matt Smith told Tampa Bay Beacons the goal is to make the nearly 30-year-old complex one of Florida’s premier training facilities. The project was expected to enter permitting in September, followed by bidding once approvals are secured.

For Ellenton and North Manatee County, it’s another substantial investment in an established local destination rather than an entirely new development.

A little 90s Nancy Meyers movie feel in Bradenton.

I stopped by the open house today at 3706 Avenida Madera, and this one has that familiar, comfortable feel that a lot of newer homes just don’t have.

Built in 1993, there’s brick, dormer windows, mature oak trees, traditional rooms and nearly 3,500 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a downstairs primary and separate den.

But a big part of the value here is the location.

It’s tucked into the El Conquistador / IMG Golf Club area, just steps from IMG Academy, and positioned between Anna Maria Island and Downtown Sarasota. You also get an unusually private homesite with plenty of space around you.

It’s not overly modern or trying to follow the latest trend. It just has some character, a great setting and maybe a little of that 90s movie-house nostalgia.

📍 3706 Avenida Madera, Bradenton
💰 Offered at $850,000

🏡 TWO MORE PENDING IN PARRISH, FLORIDA!

It was a busy weekend in the Parrish real estate market, with TWO more homes now under contract for our buyers, both located in established Parrish communities.

There’s no question that resale homes in Parrish are competing heavily with new construction right now. Builders are offering incentives, rate buy-downs and plenty of shiny new options. But savvy Parrish home buyers are also recognizing the value that can come with an established home and neighborhood.

🌴 Mature landscaping
🏊 Pools and outdoor living already completed
🏡 Established neighborhoods
📍 Great homesites and locations
🔑 No waiting months for construction
💰 And, in many cases, opportunities to negotiate

These two buyers found wonderful properties that checked their boxes without having to wait for a new home to be built.

For sellers, this is important: buyers ARE still buying resale homes in Parrish, Florida. The key is having the right pricing, preparation, presentation and marketing strategy to compete with both other resale properties AND new construction.

With more than 20 years of local real estate experience and six generations of roots in Manatee County, we understand what makes Parrish communities different and how to position a home to stand out in today’s market.

Thinking about buying or selling a home in Parrish, Florida? Let’s talk about what’s happening in your specific neighborhood.
