Custom Spanish-style home in a convenient downtown Sarasota location. Tucked beneath majestic oak trees, this hidden gem welcomes you with natural Florida landscaping and a warm, character-filled interior. Fresh paint and timeless white tile floors create a bright, move-in-ready feel. The living room features a decorative ceiling with crown molding, a wood-burning fireplace with a wood mantel, and built-in bookcases on either side. The kitchen offers a center island, hanging pot rack, breakfast bar, and spacious pantry with decorative shelving. Just off the kitchen, a screened, carpeted lanai opens toward an enclosed side yard with a wrought-iron-style metal fence and a new outdoor storage shed. The low-maintenance yard has an existing well, should the buyer wish to add an irrigation system. The primary bedroom includes a large walk-in closet. The primary bath offers both a walk-in shower and an antique clawfoot tub. Additional features include a reverse-osmosis system in the kitchen, whole-house water filtration, a water softener, a propane tankless water heater, in-wall pest control, and extra storage beside the washer and dryer. Built in 1998, this Spanish-style home has its own distinctive character and a setting close to Payne Park, downtown restaurants, shopping, arts and entertainment, and Sarasota’s Gulf Coast beaches.
