NESTLED IN THE HEART OF SARASOTA- This home in the coveted Arlington Park neighborhood, beautifully updated 1925 Florida cottage blends timeless character with luxurious modern upgrades just minutes from downtown Sarasota and the world-renowned Gulf Coast beaches. Surrounded by charming tree-lined streets, quaint historic homes, and a vibrant lifestyle, this exceptional property offers the perfect opportunity for full-time living, seasonal enjoyment, or investment potential in one of Sarasota's most desirable locations. Rich in Sarasota history, this home was originally built for the grove master when the surrounding area was covered in orange groves owned by the Palmer family. Today, it has been thoughtfully restored while preserving its authentic Old Florida charm. There has been nearly $100,000 in recent improvements and renovations that have been completed, including a new roof, soffit, fascia, gutters, landscaping, doors, hurricane impact windows, foundation support and encapsulation with a 25-year warranty, updated plumbing and electrical systems, newer A/C, plantation shutters, flooring, and more. The home was professionally lifted with an entirely new foundation in 2020, giving buyers peace of mind while maintaining the integrity and character of this historic gem. Inside, luxury vinyl flooring that resembles the original pine flooring flows throughout the home, complemented by crown molding, abundant natural light, and designer touches in every room. The inviting living room features custom shelving and a charming brick fireplace. The beautifully updated kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, decorative tile accents, and a breakfast bar ideal for casual dining and entertaining. Each bedroom offers its own cozy charm, while the thoughtfully designed laundry room includes built-in storage for added functionality. Situated on an oversized lot, the possibilities are endless. The spacious backyard offers ample room for a pool, expansion of the existing home, or the addition of a garage with an ADU above for exceptional rental income potential. The paved driveway leads to a charming car cabana, while the detached shed provides additional storage for items like bicycles and garden tools.
