Description of Property
Welcome to Chandlers Forde in The Meadows—a neighborhood surrounded by mature trees and the peaceful feel of an enchanted forest. This beautifully renovated villa-style condo with 2 car garage offers ultimate privacy with a wooded view and a glimpse of the golf course beyond. This 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a den (which can easily be converted into a third bedroom) has been tastefully updated from top to bottom. The home has a cozy yet elegant feel, with soaring ceilings and a grand double-sided stone fireplace that serves as the centerpiece of both the living and dining rooms. The living room is extra spacious, with tranquil views of the trees—an ideal space for hosting or simply relaxing by the fire. The kitchen was completely redesigned in 2023–2024, featuring leathered granite countertops, white solid wood cabinetry, some premium Bosch appliances, and an oversized chef’s prep sink. A custom coffee counter and the addition of a dry bar with wine fridge between the dining room and living room make the space perfect for entertaining. Just off the living room and primary suite is a Florida room—perfect for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or relaxing after a long day. With electric already in place, it’s ready for your new hot tub. The main-floor primary bedroom is expansive and elegant, featuring a walk-in closet with custom built-ins for maximum organization. The ensuite bath feels like a private spa, offering quartz countertops, a walk-in shower with custom glass door, and serene finishes throughout. The main floor also includes a renovated half bath (2024) and a laundry area with washer and dryer hookups for convenience. Upstairs is illuminated by an elegant mid-century modern chandelier and large hurricane-impact windows that invite in an abundance of natural light. The open den/office space w/ built-in closet can easily serve as a third bedroom. A guest bedroom with vaulted ceilings overlooks the trees, an updated guest bath with quartz countertops, a tub-shower combination, and extra closet space rounds out the second floor. Beyond the beauty, this home offers peace of mind. All windows and exterior sliders are hurricane-impact rated. The waste pipes have been replaced with PVC, and electrical hookups have been added for the included generator. Additional upgrades include a Kinetico reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink and refrigerator, a whole-house water softener, two new AC units (2018) with duct cleaning in 2024, and GE front-loader washer and dryer (2023) and the roof was replaced in 2022. In Chandlers Forde, residents enjoy two private pools, while The Meadows offers a lifestyle unlike any other in Sarasota with 14 miles of walking and biking trails winding through over 1,650 acres of mature landscaping, ponds, and natural preserves. For a small fee there is access to a state-of-the-art fitness center, JR Olympic pool, golf, tennis, and 10 pickleball courts. The community also includes a dog park and an active social calendar hosted by the community center. Ideally located between downtown Sarasota and University Town Center, The Meadows places you 5 minutes from UTC, Benderson Park, the new Mote Marine campus, fine dining, and shopping, 15 Minutes to Sarasota’s downtown cultural offerings—including the symphony, opera, ballet, and locally owned restaurants and 20 minutes to St Armands circle and award winning beaches.
