Description of Property

You will love this serene light-filled home, surrounded by gorgeous gardens and nestled into South Gate, one of Sarasota's most sought-after neighborhoods. Designed by Ruth Richmond, this comfortable home is filled with natural light. (Original 1957 drawings and survey are available for your review.) The large cobblestone circle driveway is laid with bricks from an historic Chicago building. As you enter the front door, a great room spans 46' from left to right, and includes the dining room, living room and Florida room. There are three bedrooms, two with exterior doors and outdoor porches. The kitchen is 19.5 x 11' with generous eat-in dining area and door that opens to an outdoor dining terrace. The walk-in pantry doubles as laundry room with washer, dryer and its own door to the outside. A short stroll into the gardens you'll find an extra bedroom, office or studio, called the garden nest bungalow, with its own deck, a/c and outdoor shower nearby. You'll find magical rooms carved into the back yard landscape that really must be seen, plus a dramatic gazebo lounge and dining deck.
