Description of Property
Tucked within the sought-after Gulf Gate Estates of Sarasota, this inviting home welcomes you with space, comfort, and a touch of Florida charm. Inside, the 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom split-plan layout offers two private ensuite retreats, perfect for guests or multi-generational living. Two additional bedrooms open through French doors to the sparkling pool and patio, where warm breezes and sunny afternoons await. With almost 2,500 sqft of living space, the open floor plan is designed to adapt to your lifestyle, offering multiple living and dining areas, two family room spaces, and a kitchen that’s truly the heart of the home. The kitchen features quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, French-door refrigerator with pull-out freezer, upright freezer, built-in microwave, and large pantry cabinets with pull-out drawers. The one-of-a-kind breakfast bar is crafted from beautiful pecky cypress with a colorful inlay, adding warmth and character. Skylights in the kitchen and two other rooms bring in an abundance of natural light. A laundry room with shelving, storage, and exterior access sits just off the kitchen, with the washer and dryer included. If you work from home, you’ll appreciate the tucked-away spaces and private entrance for a quiet, productive setup. Outdoors, the caged pool area is an entertainer’s dream with multiple covered spaces for dining, a tiki bar, spa, pool alarm, auto-fill feature, outdoor shower, and storage for pool supplies. The pool and spa were refurbished in 2017, with plenty of deck space to relax and soak up the sun. This home also boasts numerous updates: a brand-new shingle roof (March 2025) with transferrable warranty, upgraded underground drainpipe relined in 2024 (warranty included), new water line from meter to house, AC replaced in 2019, impact insulated double-hung windows (2011), and upgraded 225-amp electric panel. Privacy fencing surrounds the sides and backyard for added seclusion. Ideally located about 2 miles from the world-famous Siesta Key Beach, you’re also minutes from Gulf Gate’s dining and shopping, the Legacy Trail, and cultural downtown Sarasota with theaters, opera, Selby Gardens, and more. Convenient access to I-75 takes you to UTC Mall, area parks, and nightly Siesta Key sunsets.
