About this home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Better than new and upgraded to perfection! Steps from St. Armands Circle, this spacious and quiet 4BR/4BA home offers tranquility in its simplicity, while still walkable to a bevy of options for activities and entertainment. The fenced-in garden, pool, and covered outdoor eating area make this nearly new home a gem of all jewels. Walk to St Armands Circle in minutes, a short distance to Lido Beach, and Sarasota’s bustling downtown. Perfect for family living or entertaining on any scale. Nothing was overlooked when this home was meticulously renovated recently! Remarkable touches and style are visible in every room, from soaring tray ceilings and recessed lighting, to the seamless indoor/outdoor flow that’s created by a wall of double-paned sliders, and a shady poolside outdoor eating/grilling space. The open and light-filled Great Room effortlessly connects to a welcoming dining area and exquisite new chef’s kitchen, boasting waterfall quartz countertops and backsplash, as well as an extended breakfast bar, SS appliances, convenient pot-filler, and updated neutral sage-tone solid wood cabinets on display. The Casita with a separate (keyless) entryway would delight any overnight visitors! This private suite boasts its own mini-kitchen, bathroom, walk-in closet, and French doors leading guests directly into a hidden and relaxing pool area. Just 2 blocks to St. Armands Circle, minutes from the heart of downtown Sarasota and its Bayfront, where a sprawling cultural hub offers: theaters, Opera, museums, restaurants, boutique shopping, dining, and plenty of entertainment venues. Finally a place where you can relish in the peace and luxury of quiet comfort near St Armands Circle, while enjoying the best entertainment and activities that downtown Sarasota can share. Come see it for yourself!
Local Insight
At $1,160/sqft for a 1955 home in Saint Armands, you're paying premium Sarasota prices for a property that will likely need significant updates despite the in-law suite appeal—the real value here depends on the bones and whether you're buying for the location and pool amenities or expecting to renovate. The AE flood zone designation is worth taking seriously; factor in flood insurance costs and elevation requirements before committing, especially given the age of the home. The tiny 0.26-acre lot and $4 HOA are misleading positives—you're really paying for the neighborhood name and proximity to Ringling, so make sure that's worth the premium to you.
