1130 SWEENEY DRIVE | Ruskin
Welcome to your private slice of Old Florida waterfront living. Set on a spacious 0.22-acre corner lot with no HOA or CDD fees, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers 1,471 square feet along a quiet canal with direct access to the Little Manatee River and onward to the bay. Ideal for a small boat or pontoon, it blends waterfront access, privacy, and natural beauty in a setting that feels far removed from typical subdivision living. Inside, light-filled living spaces and easy-care flooring create a relaxed, comfortable feel throughout. The flexible layout adapts easily to everyday living, remote work, or hosting guests. Two primary suites provide exceptional versatility and privacy, including a full en-suite bath in one and a well-appointed shared bath with a soaking tub in the secondary wing. Built-in shelving adds charm and practical storage, enhancing the home’s warm, functional character. Recent upgrades provide peace of mind including a metal reroof (2024), HVAC system (2023), new well (2023), and new siding and gutters (2020). Additional improvements include updated flooring, remodeled bathrooms, new back doors, soffits and fascia, a reverse osmosis system (2021), and a newer dishwasher. Two refrigerators are included for added convenience. Thoughtfully positioned toward the rear of the home, a versatile bonus area with its own private entrance expands the possibilities even further. Complete with the third full bathroom, a walk-in closet, and a spacious laundry room with an additional refrigerator and ample storage, this space works beautifully as an in-law suite, private office, or playroom. Step outside and enjoy true Florida outdoor living. The backyard offers tranquil canal views with a firepit seating area perfect for cooler evenings, while the covered and screened lanai with dual ceiling fans creates a comfortable space year-round. A deck sits beside the RV carport, which includes water, septic hookup, and 30-amp power supply for added flexibility. The fully fenced vinyl yard delivers both privacy and usability, complete with three storage sheds. One standout structure is a detached, fully powered and air-conditioned shed ideal as a workshop, man cave, or private office, alongside an additional storage area for tools and equipment. With a 2-car carport, generous outdoor space, and direct water access, this property works equally well as a primary residence, vacation retreat, or investment opportunity. A rare combination of flexibility, upgrades, and peaceful waterfront living, this is one you won’t want to miss. StellarMLS TB8497087
