Description of Property
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING 13+ acre equestrian estate in MYAKKA VALLEY RANCHES in PRISTINE CONDITION. If you are looking for the perfect pool home for your family, your horses, and your dogs, and you like super low energy bills, this is it! This ca. 2700 sq. ft. home was built to the highest standards by the original owner/contractor. The current owner has put new standing-seam steel roofs on the main house and the garage, had the buildings painted, installed solar panels with Tesla batteries, and a back-up generator with a 1,000 gallon buried LP tank. The power bills range from $10 to $30/month! The cedar frame house features an open floor plan with slate floors, a great room with vaulted ceilings and a big fireplace, a gourmet kitchen with s/s appliances, a butler’s pantry, and tons of storage. The 30’ x 65’ caged deck features travertine tiles, a big heated PebbleTec salt-water pool, a Hot Spring spa, and a generous covered seating area, overlooking the pool and a big pond. The freestanding garage features two bays, and an air-conditioned office. The 3-stall barn (with a tack/feed room) has a big overhang where you can tack up. From the wash rack you can walk your horses over a concrete walkway to their stalls, so their feet won’t get dirty again. A shell-covered driveway leads to the concrete parking area for the house, the garage, and the horse barn (see aerials). Concrete walkways connect the house with the parking area and the garage. The property is fenced and cross-fenced, making pasture management really easy. A combination of no-climb wire on the fences, and chain link fence will keep your dog/s around the house. The back portion of the property is old Florida: a gorgeous mixture of huge, moss-draped oaks, cabbage palm trees, and palmettos. Since the minimum lot size is 5 acres, the property can most likely be split. Myakka Valley Ranches is a beautiful subdivision with many miles of dedicated horse trails (also great for hiking, or riding your mountain bike). It borders Myakka River State Park, Florida’s biggest state park (ca. 37,000 acres). Good schools, restaurants, shops, and our Gulf beaches are all within reasonable distance, as is Downtown Sarasota with its theaters, symphony, museums, and great restaurants. Come and see for yourself why Myakka Valley Ranches is sometimes called the last frontier of Sarasota County!
