Additional features include a two-story family room with a gas fireplace, formal dining area, and a dedicated office/den with a built-in bookcase. The second floor includes three additional bedrooms and a full bath off of the loft area. A pocket door provides added privacy for two of the bedrooms and bathroom. The attached two-car garage includes an Electric Vehicle Charging Station for convenience and efficiency. A roomy detached garage allows for additional storage and a workspace, plus room for vehicles or toys. The property also includes a new irrigation system, underground 275 gallon propane tank, and outdoor kitchen propane hook-up. Optional access to the Manasota Beach Club is included, and the public boat ramp and beach are just around the corner. Come experience this rare gem in the heart of Old Florida!
