Search Flamingo Cay on the map

Flamingo Cay is a boating neighborhood in Bradenton where the canals do the heavy lifting — every one of the current listings here sits on the water, and pools show up on most of them too. It's a small, tight community with quick water access, a short drive to the beaches and Gulf, and the easy Manatee County pace that draws people looking for something more private than the big master-planned developments. If you want the water lifestyle without the golf-course crowds, this is the kind of pocket you circle on the map alongside other Bradenton homes for sale.

The market here is genuinely thin — just 8 active listings and 10 sales over the past year — so buyers should expect competition for anything priced right. The median list price sits at $899,950 and homes are moving at a median of 49 days, with sellers pulling in about 93% of asking. If Flamingo Cay's inventory is tight when you're shopping, nearby waterfront-minded spots like Bay Shore Gardens or the larger Heritage Harbour community are worth a look, along with Braden River East.

Flamingo Cay is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Flamingo Cay FAQs

Is Flamingo Cay a good place to live?+

If you want a small waterfront neighborhood, it's hard to beat — every active listing sits on a canal and most come with a pool. It's low-turnover and quiet, with only 10 homes changing hands in the past year, and it feeds into Manatee High School. Buyers who value privacy and water access over big-community amenities tend to love it.

Is Flamingo Cay expensive?+

It sits at the higher end of the Bradenton market, with a median list price of $899,950 and three of the eight active homes priced above $1 million. The average price is about $527 per square foot, which reflects the all-waterfront profile. Compared with a broader search across Bradenton homes for sale, you're paying a premium here for the canal frontage.

What do homes cost in Flamingo Cay?+

Active listings currently run from $625,000 up to $1,499,900, with a median list price of $899,950 on a median home size around 1,748 square feet. Over the last 12 months, the median sold price came in at $932,450. It's a compact, higher-priced pocket where the water access drives value.

How is the market in Flamingo Cay?+

It's tight and steady — just 8 homes are active and 10 sold in the past year, with a median of 49 days on market. Sellers are getting about 93% of their asking price on average, so well-priced waterfront homes don't linger. Expect to move quickly when the right listing appears in nearby areas like Braden River East too.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+

The median HOA here runs about $875 per month, which is on the higher side and reflects the waterfront community's upkeep. Median property taxes come in around $6,747 per year. Budget for both when you're comparing a Flamingo Cay purchase against other Bradenton neighborhoods.
