Property Description
PRICE INPROVEMENT! BRING YOUR TOYS! Need a Mother-in-Law suite? We have that too! Or It could be a rental! Just five minutes from downtown Sarasota, this unique 1.5-acre property offers space, versatility, and opportunity. The main residence features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a two-and-a-half car garage, while the detached one-bedroom, one-bath cottage with full kitchen is perfect for guests, extended family, or flexible use as a game room, home office, or creative crafting retreat. Inside the main home, the chef's dream kitchen includes three ovens, two sinks, and plenty of counter space for prep and serving. A beautiful, inviting front porch with floor-to-ceiling windows fills the home with natural light. The living room boasts a warm brick fireplace with built-in shelving, while a separate TV room with French doors opens to the oversized screened lanai. From the lanai, you'll enjoy serene garden views that make the outdoor space a true extension of the home. With two separate entrances, the property is ideal for a family compound, a business owner needing space for equipment, or potential future development. The home is located in a non-flood zone, has a durable metal roof, and includes two air conditioning units, one of which is brand new. Centrally located near Benderson Park and I-75, and just 21 minutes to the beautiful Gulf Coast beaches, this is a one-of-a-kind Sarasota estate with endless possibilities. The adjacent 1-acre parcel is also available for purchase and may be combined with this property for an expanded homesite or added privacy.
