Property Description
Discover the perfect balance of space, style, and setting in this beautifully updated ranch home located in Sarasota’s coveted Sapphire Shores. Set on an oversized lot of more than a third of an acre, this light-filled residence offers a rare combination of FIVE BEDROOMS and THREE FULL BATHS—including two en-suites—making it one of the largest single-level homes in the neighborhood. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy and flexibility, while the central open living area flows effortlessly to the outdoors, creating a home that’s both functional and welcoming. The updates are extensive and thoughtful: a modern kitchen with sleek finishes, stainless appliances and custom cabinetry, fully renovated baths, newer porcelain plank flooring, a durable metal roof, and impact-resistant windows give the property contemporary comfort and peace of mind. Outdoors, a private backyard retreat awaits. A sparkling, heated pool with a travertine surround anchors the space, while a covered dining and lounging area sets the stage for easy entertaining, weekend barbecues, and tranquil evenings under the Florida sky. The two-car garage with an EV charging station and the completely fenced oversized lot provide ample room for storage and play, rounding out the property’s generous footprint. Beyond the home itself, the lifestyle in Sapphire Shores is unmatched. Known as Sarasota’s “Museum Area,” the neighborhood is just steps from Sun Circle Park—a beautiful Bayfront greenspace perfect for morning walks or sunset views. Surrounding you are some of the city’s finest cultural institutions: the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, Asolo Performing Arts Center, the Ca’ d’Zan Museum, and more. From art and performance to nature and recreation, this location puts the very best of Sarasota at your doorstep. Two miles north of downtown Sarasota and a short drive over the Ringling Bridge to the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key. Also near University Parkway anchored on the west by the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport and by University Town Center shopping district on the east.
