Old Manatee Village sits on the Manatee River in one of Bradenton's oldest and most storied corners, where waterfront lots and a walkable, close-to-downtown location define the character. It's the kind of enclave that draws buyers who want river access and history without giving up quick reach to the rest of the county — from Braden River East to the larger master-planned communities around Heritage Harbour.
The market here is small and firmly at the high end. With just two active listings and a median list price around $1.52 million, this is a luxury and waterfront pocket rather than a volume market — and homes that are priced right move fast, with a median of only 7 days on market. Buyers comparing against more attainable options nearby, like Oneco or Bay Shore Gardens, will feel the difference in both price and pace.
Old Manatee Village is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Old Manatee Village FAQs
Is Old Manatee Village a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who value a historic, river-adjacent location close to downtown Bradenton and want a small, established setting. Homes feed into Manatee Elementary, Martha B. King Middle School, and Manatee High School, and the neighborhood keeps you within reach of both the coast and inland communities like Heritage Harbour.
Is Old Manatee Village expensive?+
Yes — it's one of Bradenton's higher-end pockets, with a median list price of $1,522,500 and an average of $678 per square foot. Both active listings are priced above $1 million, so budget-conscious buyers may want to weigh nearby Oneco as a comparison.
What do homes cost in Old Manatee Village?+
Current active listings range from $1,250,000 to $1,795,000, with a median around $1,522,500 and a median home size of roughly 2,344 square feet. Over the past year the single recorded sale closed at $403,000, so the active luxury listings represent the higher tier of what trades here.
How is the market in Old Manatee Village?+
It's a small, fast market: only two homes are active and just one sold in the last 12 months, but sellers averaged 99% of asking price and the median days on market is only 7. Well-priced homes don't linger, so preparation and quick decisions matter here more than in the broader Bradenton market.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no reported median HOA fee for this neighborhood, which reflects its older, non-master-planned character. The median annual property tax runs about $8,882, in line with the area's higher home values, and median rent is around $3,500 per month.
