“The Magnificent Grand Mansion” The Riverfront Estate is an architectural masterpiece on the Manatee River Channel. Breathtaking water views extend the full length of the residence through French doors, sidelights, and arched transoms designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Northern exposure fills the interior with natural light while framing expansive views of the Manatee River and Gulf of America. This custom multi-level mansion offers approx. 12,000 sq ft of interior living space and nearly 14,000 sq ft under roof. Nearly every vantage point captures sweeping waterfront scenery, with each bedroom suite positioned for optimal river and canal views. The estate includes approx. 202 feet of prime waterfrontage with direct Gulf access within minutes. Additional upside includes potential to reconfigure four lots into three larger estate parcels for future redevelopment.
