Under contract-accepting backup offers. Move in Ready and not impacted by recent storms. Village Gardens is one of Sarasota’s hidden gems! It’s a peaceful, tree-canopied community with many recreational amenities, minutes to downtown Sarasota and all north side cultural & educational institutions like the Ringling Museum of Art & Design, Asolo Theatre of Performing Arts, the Sarasota Ballet, Ringling College of Art and Design and USF! But what’s rare is the opportunity to purchase one of the coveted “tree house” townhomes. This 2-story, 2-bed, 2-bath unit has the dramatic great room with a vaulted ceiling and clerestory windows which allow sunlight to come streaming in! The ground floor suite and the main living area both adjoin the all-seasons, glassed-in lanai. The large, eat-in kitchen has been upgraded with newer oak cabinets, a stainless refrigerator, microwave and 4 burner gas range. There is also an entry foyer and a spacious first floor utility room. Upstairs is a very private, carpeted suite with its own bathroom, a walk-in closet, and another “all season” covered porch overlooking the beautifully maintained tree scape, and gardens. A carport keeps you dry, and the double drive allows room for a second car. Residents enjoy the large heated pool, pickle ball & tennis courts and a clubhouse with many activities.
