Welcome to 5531 Downham Meadows — refined MOVE-IN READY - single-family living in The Meadows Nestled on an oversized lot in the highly sought after enclave of the Meadows Country Club community, 5531 Downham Meadows offers a rare blend of indoor/outdoor Florida living, tranquil lake and golf-course views, and upscale finishes. Located in Sarasota’s established “The Meadows” neighborhood, 20 minutes from downtown, shopping, dining, and the best of the Gulf Coast lifestyle, this residence is both a peaceful retreat and an entertainer’s dream. Key Features You’ll Love Spacious single-story layout (approximately 2,004 sq ft) with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths — thoughtfully designed for both gracious everyday living and inviting gatherings. A dramatic open-floor plan framed by 12-foot ceilings, abundant natural light, and large HURRICANE IMPACT sliding glass doors that seamlessly bring the outdoors in. Indoor/outdoor living at its best: multiple sliders open to a private, screened lanai and heated pool & spa area, all overlooking the shimmering lake and moments away from the 8th hole of the Meadows golf course. The kitchen is designed for both ease and elegance: a large breakfast nook with a view of the pool, solid-surface countertops, a built-in pantry, and a mix of tile and carpet flooring that defines spaces beautifully. The owner’s suite is generous and serene — sliding glass doors lead directly to the lanai. At the same time, inside you’ll find dual vanities, a garden tub, a separate walk-in shower, and soothing finishes throughout. Exceptional curb appeal: a paver driveway framed by lush, mature landscaping, and a tile roof that blends with the character of this well-maintained neighborhood. Community & Lifestyle Advantage Located in the heart of the Meadows — a 1,650-acre, award-winning master-planned community with more than 14 miles of nature trails, 80 lakes, natural preserves, and just minutes from University Town Center, I-75, and downtown Sarasota. Membership (or optional access) to the Meadows Country Club offers a whole resort-style lifestyle, featuring three championship golf courses, a premier tennis and pickleball complex, a Jr. Olympic pool with spa, a fitness center, and a vibrant social calendar. For families and those with active lifestyles, the setting offers the best of both convenience and nature — from serene lakeside living to unparalleled amenities and access to Sarasota’s world-class beaches.
