About this home
Discover exceptional privacy, thoughtful design and SUBSTANTIAL OWNER IMPROVEMENTS in this distinguished John Cannon Allora II Model, located in the gated Turtle Rock community of Palmer Ranch. Set on a beautifully landscaped 0.30-acre lot with desirable SOUTHERN EXPOSURE and no homes directly behind it, this four-bedroom, three-bath residence offers 3,123 square feet of living space, a dedicated office/den and a three-car garage, all overlooking a lush natural preserve. APPROXIMATELY $200,000.00 in renovations and improvements reflect a commitment to comfort, energy efficiency and storm preparedness. Highlights include HURRICANE-RATED WINDOWS AND SLIDING GLASS DOORS, a photovoltaic solar energy system, a whole-house Generac generator and A NEWER TILE ROOF . These substantial investments complement the home's timeless architecture and help reduce the need for major future upgrades. Inside, soaring coffered and tray ceilings, crown molding, wood and travertine flooring and generous natural light create an inviting atmosphere. The kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances and a natural gas cooktop. The spacious primary suite includes dual walk-in closets and a beautifully updated bath with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. A private office offers a comfortable setting for work or reading. Outdoor living is a standout feature. The expansive screened lanai includes a heated pool and spa and a custom built-in outdoor kitchen featuring exotic wood cabinetry, a premium grill, sink and undercounter beverage refrigerator. Designed for both everyday relaxation and entertaining, this space opens to tranquil views of the natural preserve, with no rear neighbors and a wonderful sense of privacy. Additional amenities include a natural gas tankless water heater, gas fireplace, central vacuum, laundry room with utility sink and storage, and an epoxy-finished three-car garage with electric vehicle charging. The solar system is owned outright. Turtle Rock offers mature landscaping, scenic pathways, lakes and preserves, a community center, heated pool, tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, and neighborhood activities, with no CDD fee. Conveniently situated near the Legacy Trail, shopping, dining, Sarasota's cultural attractions and Siesta Key Beach, this thoughtfully improved John Cannon home combines privacy, practical upgrades and inviting Florida living.
