Under contract-accepting backup offers. This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a flexible split plan, ideal for a growing household, guests or work-from-home living in one of Sarasota's favorite neighborhoods. The kitchen and family room serve as the heart of the home, featuring a fireplace, breakfast bar, newer kitchen appliances and convenient interior laundry with a newer front-loading washer and dryer. Outside is a freeform pool with a covered lanai and generous overhang, perfect for entertaining, all within a fenced yard with room for pets or gardening. A private front courtyard offers a quiet spot for morning coffee. Thoughtful updates include a full interior re-pipe and A/C replacement completed in 2014, and a roof installed in July 2010 with a secondary water barrier and 30-year dimensional shingles with enhanced fastening, along with a resurfaced pool and newer pump. An oversized garage accommodates larger vehicles, and the location is hard to beat, approximately five minutes to Publix and shopping, 10 minutes to I-75, roughly 20 minutes to downtown Sarasota, and approximately 25 minutes to Siesta Key and area beaches, making this a well-cared-for home ready for its next owner’s personal touches.
