Description

Experience the best of beach living in this beautifully renovated home near the sugar-white sands of Lido Beach and the upscale shops and restaurants of St. Armands Circle. Positioned between these two renowned destinations, this desirable address offers effortless access to both. Offering three bedrooms and three and one-half baths, this bright and airy residence blends timeless charm with modern functionality, and is zoned for seven-day minimum rentals, making it an exceptional opportunity for investors and lifestyle buyers alike. The open-concept layout is highlighted by a soaring 14-foot beam ceiling, skylight windows, and a fireplace that adds warmth and character. A wall of sliding glass doors extends the living space to an expansive screened lanai with an oversized pool and heated spa, travertine deck, covered outdoor kitchen area and fenced yard—creating a tropical outdoor oasis designed for entertaining and relaxation. Inside, the freshly designed kitchen features quartz countertops, white cabinetry and new stainless-steel appliances. New luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the home. The primary suite offers direct lanai access, a dual-sink bath with large shower, and a professionally designed closet space. Two guest bedrooms include custom closets, and one features its en-suite bath. With impact-rated windows and doors, 2025 re-wire and electrical panel, 2024 pool pump, 2025 HVAC, 2017 roof, and fresh interior and exterior paint, this home is move-in ready. Minutes from downtown Sarasota’s vibrant arts and cultural venues, and close to golf, tennis and water recreation, this is your opportunity to own a spectacularly located property in one of Florida’s desired coastal communities. Schedule a private showing today and start living your dream.
