8096 Glenbrooke Ln Sarasota, FL 34243

A rare two-in-one opportunity, this fully renovated Sarasota home offers two distinct living spaces under one roof, well suited for extended family living, private guest or in-law quarters, long-term comfort, or the flexibility to generate additional income. This 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom property is thoughtfully designed with separate entrances and a dividing door, allowing each level to live independently while still feeling connected. The first level features a light, coastal-inspired living space with a full kitchen, two bedrooms, one bathroom, and its own full-size laundry room, creating a comfortable and functional retreat for extended family, guests, or flexible use. Upstairs, the main living area opens with warmth and style, highlighted by vaulted ceilings, an electric fireplace, spacious living and dining areas, and a balcony overlooking the backyard. The upper kitchen is appointed with solid cherry wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, and this level includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a primary suite. The lower level also features a beautifully renovated kitchen with shaker soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry, creating a fully self-sufficient living space. Both levels offer dedicated laundry, and storage is abundant throughout. Renovated down to the studs, the home features hurricane impact windows (2017), newer AC systems with UV air purifying lights (2017). The exterior has been completely refreshed with new stucco, vinyl siding, and PVC trim (2023), along with a new roof featuring a 50-year transferable warranty, plus updated fascia and soffit (2022). Situated on one of the largest lots in the Glenbrooke community, the fully fenced backyard is a private tropical setting with mango, banana, and avocado trees, room for a pool, and two vinyl storage sheds that convey. Located in a serene community with extremely low HOA (just $300/year) and no CDD fees, this home offers convenient access to University Town Center, dining, shopping, I-75, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and the Gulf beaches. This isn't just a home... it's a smart investment, a flexible lifestyle, and a rare opportunity all in one.
