Description

You will instantly feel a sense of "home" with the old Florida character, modern updates, and secluded lush landscaping of this blended original and updated 1950s three-bedroom, two-bath home. Ideally located West of Trail, West of Osprey, 1 block to Sarasota Memorial Hospital, 2 blocks to the Southside Village shops and restaurants, and in the highly-coveted Southside Elementary School zone. As you enter, you are greeted by the dining room space, with original pine hardwood floors. This space provides a cozy and intimate setting. Whether you're enjoying a quiet dinner or hosting a dinner party, it will be a favorite spot to create lasting memories. The focal point of the dining room is a beautiful wood-burning fireplace adding warmth and character to the space. Adjacent to the dining room is your galley-style kitchen and breakfast room with hand-painted cabinets. The primary bedroom includes a separate private seating area and bath. The primary bedroom and kitchen both lead to a gorgeous A-frame screened-in porch, which will become your new favorite space. The screened porch screams old Florida charm and is an oasis of tranquility where you can unwind, sip your morning coffee, host gatherings, indulge in a good book, or chill in the hammock. Each guest bedroom includes a separate walk-in closet with pocket doors. There is a large family room with vaulted wood plank ceilings complimented by French doors that lead out to your brick paver patio. The backyard is fenced with space for a pool if desired. The secluded lush landscaping completely surrounds the property creating a sense of privacy and serenity. The shingle and flat roof were recently replaced (2023), exterior painting and caulking were completed, and interior walls and trim were painted as well. The property was recently appraised for $1.3M and is offered at $1.2M to offer the next Owner room to continue to upgrade finishes.
