For Sale - Active

Coastal Freedom Meets Resort Living – No HOA. No CDD. No Stress. Every once in a while, a home shows up that checks every box… but this one erases the boxes entirely. Just fifteen minutes from Siesta Key’s powder-white beaches and the energy of Downtown Sarasota, this fully upgraded, turn-key retreat gives your weekends back to you — no to-do lists, just pure relaxation. From the moment you arrive, lush palms and fresh landscaping set the tone. Step inside and you’re greeted by a breezy open concept where wood-look tile flows underfoot and sunlight dances across every surface. The chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring a waterfall-edge quartz island, crisp white shaker cabinets, sleek stainless steel appliances, and an elegant marble subway tile backsplash. Outside, the magic continues with a private pool wrapped in new pavers and surrounded by a fully fenced yard, creating your own private resort. Lounge under the palms, fire up the grill, or float under the stars — every day feels like a getaway. Nearly everything here is new or recently updated, including the roof (2023), AC and air handler (2025), kitchen and baths (2023), pool pump, PVC, and pavers (2023–2024), hurricane sliders and windows (2024), and custom closets throughout (2024). Irrigation, lighting, flooring, and appliances have all been upgraded as well, giving you total peace of mind. This isn’t just a home — it’s a decision-free zone. No HOA telling you what to do. No CDD adding surprise costs. Just upgraded comfort minutes from beaches, shopping, dining, and I-75. Whether you’re downsizing, starting fresh, or chasing the Florida lifestyle full-time, this property delivers the freedom, location, and easy living you’ve been waiting for. Don’t just view it — feel it. Schedule your tour today and start living where every day feels like a vacation.
