There are only 7 homes available now and this one is the BEST! No CDD fees. Low HOA fees. Club membership is optional. Take advantage of the $50,000 price reduction! The seller is motivated to sell quickly! You will love this home featuring 3 bedrooms, a den, and an additional multi-purpose room, along with 3 full bathrooms and a half-bath. Built in 2013, this custom residence was designed to maximize indoor-outdoor living; it features a beautiful, spacious pool on a lanai that includes covered areas for both dining and lounging. The lovely backyard, adorned with mature trees and lush landscaping, offers plenty of space for pets and recreational activities. Enjoy 3,182 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space situated on a lot of nearly half an acre. A partial view of the golf course's 17th hole adds a picturesque touch to this tranquil setting. The Club and the Robert Trent Jones-designed golf course are undergoing renovations this summer; consequently, a reciprocity agreement with other elite local clubs is in effect from now through the Summer! Take this opportunity to play on the region's best courses and return to enjoy the BEST in the fall! Upon entering the home, you will find an office located near the front door, directly across from the dining room and the main "Great Room." Key features include soaring ceilings, abundant storage space, and an open-concept layout that flows seamlessly from the gourmet kitchen into the spacious living and dining areas. All rooms are situated on a single level, showcasing timeless architecture and high-end finishes. The primary suite features two spacious walk-in closets, each custom-designed with built-in cabinetry. Bathed in natural light, the primary bathroom includes a garden tub, a separate shower, double vanities, and a dedicated seated vanity area, offering a perfect blend of comfort and functionality in a spa-like setting. The other two bedrooms, each with a private en-suite bathroom, are located on the opposite side of the house. The three-car garage offers ample space for three vehicles and the angled area offers a triangle for a golf cart and extra storage.. The "Florida Basement," provides additional AC storage space. Furniture is included in the sale, with the exception of items marked with a red dot. This home is truly move-in ready, so you can start enjoying this lifestyle right away! Ask about incentives!
Local Insight
At $605 per square foot in Founders Club, you're paying a premium for the amenities and gated community lifestyle, though that price sits above recent comps in the broader Sarasota market—worth verifying if the in-law suite and pool justify the premium or if you're overpaying for HOA finesse. The real value question here is whether you need that extra suite and formal pool setup, because those features limit your buyer pool on resale and the $500 monthly HOA eats into returns if you're treating this as an investment. Location-wise, you're convenient to solid schools and west-side amenities, but you're also locked into a mature subdivision with limited land—the 0.49-acre lot means zero room for expansion if your needs change.
