Equestrian Living Redefined- Imagine waking to the gentle sounds of horses grazing in sun-dappled pastures, stepping onto your screened lanai for coffee overlooking a sparkling saltwater pool, and knowing your entire property is fortified against Florida's fiercest storms. This custom one-story ranch estate in prestigious, gated Saddle Creek delivers the ultimate blend of refined living, serious equestrian infrastructure, and effortless access to Sarasota's world-class lifestyle. Spanning 3,060 heated square feet (4691 total) with 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, bonus room, 3-car garage and metal roof (2016) the home offers a functional single-level layout on a generous footprint, providing ample room for comfortable everyday living and future personalization. A massive bonus room (easily converted into a private guest/in-law suite) plus mud room/workshop offer flexible space for hobbies, visitors, or multi-generational living. Step outside to resort-style living: a heated saltwater pool (30' x 15') with Pentair automation (electric or gas capable), surrounded by an expansive 40' x 50' deck and full screen enclosure. A recently added sunroom/Florida room extends your indoor-outdoor living year-round. Hurricane-proof garage doors in the spacious 24' x 48' attached 3-car garage are a bonus!
