A cozy family room is framed around a beautiful mid century brick fireplace, flanked by the kitchen and dining room. A proper living room is set just off the foyer and is lined with glass doors that provide unobstructed views of the vibrant pool area. Perched on almost a 1/3 of an acre, the home is set to one side of the lot, giving room to a large side yard with plenty of space for an accessory dwelling unit, detached secondary garage, full-blown outdoor entertainment area, or any other amenity you can think of. Or, just keep it as a the private little zen garden that it is. This 3 bedroom/ 2 bath, spacious home has relaxing views of the pool, surrounded by lush, tropical landscape, from almost every room. An A+ school district, young families throughout, and quiet winding streets make this an ideal neighborhood for a family. A community boat dock is available to you to dock your boat to pick up passengers, refill the cooler, or grab a forgotten item at home for your day on the water. You'll be directly across the street from The Landings Shopping Center, boasting a brand new Publix grocery store, the wildly popular EoS Gym, and the largest selection of amazing restaurants and cafés of any center in Sarasota. This neighborhood is a gem if you're looking for quiet walkable streets, friendly neighbors, a close-to-the-water vibe, and close proximity to restaurants and shopping.
