About this home

Golf course views, a private pool, beautifully updated interiors, and NO HOA or deed restrictions — welcome to a rare opportunity in Palm Aire! Perfectly positioned along the second hole of the Champions Course at Palm Aire Country Club, this charming two-story Cape Cod-style residence offers the ideal combination of modern comfort, timeless character, and the freedom to enjoy Florida living on your terms. Thoughtfully renovated in late 2023 and enhanced with even more recent improvements, the home now features three brand-new skylights, a brand-new flat roof, and a brand-new dishwasher, adding to its move-in-ready appeal. Inside, an inviting floor plan blends warmth and functionality, with durable luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level and rich hardwood floors along the staircase and entire second floor. The open kitchen and family room serve as the heart of the home, featuring granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and beautiful views of the sparkling pool and golf course beyond. The first-floor primary suite provides a comfortable private retreat, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and beautifully updated en-suite bathroom. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom provides exceptional flexibility, whether you're accommodating guests, working from home, or creating dedicated space for hobbies, fitness, or relaxation. The three new skylights bring additional natural light into the home, enhancing its bright and welcoming atmosphere. Step outside to your own private Florida oasis, where peaceful golf course views create a picturesque backdrop for everyday living. The pool deck, refreshed in 2024 with beautiful brick pavers, provides an inviting setting for morning coffee, afternoon swims, or evenings entertaining friends and family. Perhaps one of the property's greatest advantages is its NO HOA and NO deed restrictions, offering a level of freedom that's increasingly difficult to find in such a desirable golf course setting. Keep your boat, RV, golf cart, work vehicle, or recreational equipment at home without the limitations of a traditional deed-restricted community. Furniture is also negotiable, providing added convenience for buyers looking for an effortless transition. Whether you're searching for a full-time Sarasota residence, a seasonal Florida escape, or a versatile home base with room to enjoy your favorite activities, this Palm Aire property offers an exceptional combination of location, lifestyle, thoughtful updates, and flexibility. Beautifully refreshed and ready for its next chapter, this is Florida living with room to make it your own.
