Village Of The Arts is Bradenton's artist enclave — a walkable grid of vividly painted bungalows that double as galleries, studios, and small eateries. It's a neighborhood with a real point of view, and it draws people who want character over conformity, close to the heart of Bradenton. Nearby, communities like Oneco and Bay Shore Gardens round out this pocket of central Manatee County.
For a buyer today, this is a thin, fast-moving market. There are just 2 active listings, with a median list price of $527,000 and homes moving in about 15.5 days once they hit the market. Inventory is scarce enough that when the right property lands, you'll want to be ready — and it's worth comparing against options in Braden River East or Heritage Harbour if timing matters.
Village Of The Arts is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Village Of The Arts FAQs
Is Village Of The Arts a good place to live?+
It suits people who want personality and a creative, walkable setting over a cookie-cutter subdivision. The neighborhood's galleries, studios, and colorful bungalows give it a genuine identity, and it's assigned to Ballard Elementary, Martha B. King Middle School, and Manatee High School. If you value character and proximity to central Bradenton, it's hard to match.
Is Village Of The Arts expensive?+
It sits in the mid-market for the area, with a median list price of $527,000 and active listings ranging from $319,000 to $735,000. At about $254 per square foot, you're paying for character and location as much as square footage. Buyers comparing value can also look at nearby Oneco for a broader price range.
What do homes cost in Village Of The Arts?+

Over the past 12 months, 6 homes sold at a median sold price of $252,500, which reflects the mix of smaller and studio-style properties that trade here. Because inventory is so limited, individual sales can swing the numbers significantly.
How is the market in Village Of The Arts?+
It's a small, fast market: just 2 active listings and a median of 15.5 days on market. Sellers are getting about 89% of asking on average, so there's still room to negotiate, but well-priced homes don't sit long. With only 6 sales in the past year, you'll want to move quickly when the right listing appears — or widen your search to Braden River East.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no reported median HOA fee for the neighborhood, which fits its individual-home, non-subdivision character. Property taxes run around $6,939 per year at current levels. As always, confirm the exact tax figure for any specific property, since it varies with assessed value and exemptions.
