Description of Property
Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Situated on nearly half an acre along a wide, scenic stretch of Phillippi Creek, this property offers the perfect combination of waterfront living, privacy, and an unbeatable central Sarasota location. Tucked behind a fenced driveway, the classic Sarasota ranch-style home welcomes you with its timeless charm. But the true showstopper is the backyard, a sprawling park-like setting with mature trees, expansive green space, and peaceful water views that create a private retreat right in the middle of town. This solid block home has been thoughtfully updated with a 2024 metal roof, laminate flooring throughout, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and fresh exterior paint. The functional floor plan features a dedicated dining area, oversized laundry room, and a spacious two-car garage. For boating and water enthusiasts, the possibilities are exceptional. Subject to permitting, there may be an opportunity to add a dock and boat lift, providing direct access to Phillippi Creek, Sarasota Bay, and ultimately the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, wildlife viewing, or simply relaxing while watching the water drift by. Located just minutes from Siesta Key, Downtown Sarasota, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, this property offers a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to replicate. Whether you're looking for a waterfront residence, a property to expand and customize, or simply a unique piece of Sarasota waterfront land, this is an opportunity you won't want to mis- schedule your private showing today!
