Description

Experience the ease of coastal living just minutes from the world-renowned shores of Siesta Key with this inviting, free-standing villa, an ideal retreat for buyers seeking comfort, convenience, and value. Perfectly positioned in Sarasota's desirable 34231 corridor, this residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the beach lifestyle without the premium price typically associated with island living. Designed for relaxed, low-maintenance ownership, the villa features a spacious, open-concept layout with abundant natural light, neutral finishes, and easy-care ceramic tile flooring throughout. Recent updates include new HVAC in 2024, roof 2019, water heater and Impact windows in 2022. The well-appointed kitchen provides ample cabinetry and workspace, flowing seamlessly into the main living and dining areas, with functionally elegant built-ins with storage, and perfect for entertaining or hosting seasonal guests. Generous bedroom accommodations offer privacy and comfort, while updated baths enhance the home's move-in-ready appeal. A highlight of the property is the private outdoor living space, ideal for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply enjoying the coastal breezes. Residents also enjoy serene sunsets on Sarasota Bay, access to community amenities such as a pool, clubhouse, and beautifully maintained grounds, perfect for a lock-and-leave seasonal.
