About this home
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Exceptional opportunity in highly sought-after Rivendell, one of Osprey’s most desirable communities known for its scenic lakes, preserves, walking trails, and beautiful natural surroundings. Ideally located just steps from top-rated Pine View School, offering the rare convenience to walk or bike to one of Florida’s most acclaimed schools. This beautifully maintained home features a durable tile roof, tranquil lake views, and a spacious lanai overlooking the water, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Enjoy stunning lake views from the dining room, creating a bright and inviting everyday setting. HOA maintained lawn care adds convenience and low maintenance living. The backyard is a tropical retreat with fruit trees including sugar apple, guava, and plum. Prime location near Oscar Scherer State Park, Casey Key beaches, shopping, dining, and the Legacy Trail. Rare combination of location, lifestyle, views, and school district appeal.
Local Insight
At $263 per square foot, this 2002-built home is priced competitively for Osprey, but you're getting a tight 0.19-acre lot in a subdivision with a $292 monthly HOA—factor that into your total housing cost before assuming you're getting a deal. The flood zone X designation is a genuine plus for insurance and resale, and the home's age means you'll want a thorough inspection to assess what systems might need attention in the next few years. The location feeds into solid schools and keeps you in the quieter part of the Sarasota area, which appeals to a certain buyer, but verify what amenities that HOA actually covers since the monthly fee is on the higher side for what appears to be a modest neighborhood.
