Property Description & Video
5031 Preston Way, Sarasota, FLVideo Tour of 5031 Preston Way, Sarasota, FL.
Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a generous .26-acre fenced lot in central Sarasota, this beautifully updated single-story home blends easy Florida living with move-in-ready finishes. Natural light pours in all day across an open layout where vaulted ceilings and warm wood-look flooring carry from the living room into a dining space made for gathering. The renovated kitchen shines with white cabinetry, granite countertops, a subway-tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Both bedrooms offer walk-in closets, and the primary suite - with en-suite bath - opens through sliding glass doors to a private, lushly landscaped garden. Off the living area, more sliders lead to a screened lanai and brick-paver patio that's hot-tub ready, overlooking a big, fully fenced backyard with room to roam and one mature shade tree. Big-ticket peace of mind comes from a metal roof, a 2-year-old HVAC, and a newer washer, dryer, and dishwasher, plus an attached garage with a bonus second refrigerator. Whether you're after a full-time residence, a seasonal escape, or a vacation getaway, the central location delivers - 10-15 minutes from downtown Sarasota, 15-20 from Gulf beaches, and surrounded by shopping and dining.
