About this home
Welcome to this spacious Arthur Rutenberg-built estate home in the established gated community of Serenoa Lakes! Offering 3,440 sq ft under air, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence is packed with living space, including a bonus room, private den/office, formal living room, family room, and a cozy breakfast nook — perfect for a growing family or those who love to entertain. Situated on 0.55 acres overlooking the scenic Serenoa Golf Course, this hidden gem offers a rare opportunity to add your personal touch and restore it to its full potential as a stunning home. The oversized kitchen features a breakfast bar and a separate walk-in pantry, while the interior laundry room adds everyday convenience. Retreat to your own private oasis on the screened lanai, complete with a graciously sized pool and spa and a retractable sunscreen for comfortable enjoyment year-round. Additional features include a 3-car garage and a whole-house central vacuum system. For the golf enthusiast, Serenoa Golf Club offers a public, 18-hole course woven through the neighboring Serenoa Community. The club features a variety of passholder golfing opportunities, along with a casual restaurant and bar for relaxing after a round. Designed by architect David Martin Alden and opened in 1990, the course was built around the property's existing wetlands and natural terrain, earning recognition from Florida Golf News as one of the top 100 courses in Florida and one of the top three in Sarasota. The community is conveniently located within minutes of I-75 and just around the corner from Twin Lakes Park, offering football, soccer, baseball, and softball fields — including the Orioles Buck O'Neil Complex (5 lighted diamonds with batting cages) — basketball courts, multi-purpose fields, tennis and racquetball courts, a fishing pier, playground, picnic areas, and walking/birding trails. World-renowned Benderson Rowing Park, the shopping, dining, and entertainment of UTC Mall, and Sarasota's rich culture and famous beaches are all within close proximity. Don't miss this rare opportunity — schedule your private showing today!
