609 WOODLAWN DRIVE

Under contract-accepting backup offers. 3 BEDROOMS, PRIVATE COURTYARD, NO UPSTAIRS NEIGHBORS and more than 1,800 square feet of total space including the enclosed Florida room! This updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath courtyard villa in Wildewood Springs offers the space and privacy of a home with the convenience of maintenance-free villa living. One of the features that makes this villa so unique is the oversized private courtyard located just off the back of the home. There's room for outdoor dining, seating, grilling, plants and entertaining, all within your own private outdoor space. Just beyond the courtyard gate is a secluded lake. Inside, you'll find interior laundry and an enclosed Florida room adding approximately 300 square feet of additional space. The Florida room can be used as a second living area, office, game room or entertaining space, and some owners have chosen to incorporate this area into the main living space for an even more open floor plan. Recent updates include new pavers, smooth resurfaced ceilings, fresh interior paint, updated interior doors and hardware, refreshed courtyard walls, a new front storm door and locks, rescreened lanai windows, new water heater and a Ruud 3-ton AC system installed in 2023. Parking is conveniently located just outside the front door. Wildewood Springs is an 88-acre bird and wildlife sanctuary filled with mature tropical landscaping, lakes and walking paths. Residents enjoy multiple heated pools and spas, tennis and pickleball courts, and plenty of space for walking and biking throughout the community. The location puts you approximately 15 minutes from the beaches of Anna Maria Island, with IMG Academy, shopping, restaurants and everyday conveniences nearby, plus an easy drive to downtown Sarasota. If you've been looking for something with more space and privacy than the typical condo, this is one you'll want to see. Three bedrooms, a large private courtyard, no one living above you and an enclosed Florida room, all within one of west Bradenton's most established tropical communities and just minutes from the Gulf beaches.
