Set on a quarter-acre corner lot within a deed-restricted Sarasota community, this four-bedroom, two-bath residence blends comfort with modern enhancements. Constructed with concrete block and new hurricane-impact windows and doors, the home offers peace of mind and long-term value. The split floor plan delivers privacy and function, with primary suite positioned at the north end. The updated primary bath and expansive walk-in closet provide a refined retreat. At heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen showcases granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and bar seating that opens to a large dining area and vaulted family room with lake views and a travertine-clad wood-burning fireplace. Travertine and wood flooring extend throughout. Three-panel sliding doors reveal a screened lanai ideal for entertaining, offering serene lake views and a fountain feature. Additional highlights include 2025 hurricane-rated garage door, a 2019 air-conditioning system, new ductwork, and an oversized two-car garage with storage. The exterior has been transformed into a private oasis, complete with upgraded landscaping and paver patio designed for Florida living. This meticulously maintained home provides a rare combination of style, structure, and setting, all minutes from downtown Sarasota and the gulf beaches.
