This unique and serene home offers plenty of space to live and entertain comfortably, and is located in a sought-after "West of the Trail" neighborhood just 2 miles north of Downtown Sarasota. Multiple living/family rooms provide options as to how to put your own design spin on it. The split layout affords privacy with two beds and a bath to the left of the front living room; off of the back living space to the left is another bedroom; and the primary suite is to the right. Potential exists to create an in-law area or divide the home into two separate living units, should this catch your eye as an investment property. The lovely fenced pool/patio/yard allows you to enjoy the "always summer" Florida lifestyle! There is no shortage of activities nearby--just a short walk through this delightful tree-lined neighborhood will lead you to Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores to watch the incredible sunsets. You will also find multiple parks within a short distance, including The Bay where you can launch your kayak or partake in free community events. If boating is your thing, you're covered there too, with more than one marina close by. The famous silky sand of Siesta Key Beach is only a 20-minute drive, and SRQ Airport pick-ups and drop-offs are a mere 10 minutes away. The many amazing shops, theaters and restaurants downtown will keep your social calendar booked! Don't let this gem pass you by.
