Three-bed, 2 bath pool home in the Indian Beach-Sapphire Shores neighborhood. To be more specific, this contemporary Florida ranch is in Indian Beach Estates, unique for larger lots and roomier homesites. This creates very long views of park like settings and provides a property large enough for a full outdoor lifestyle. A spacious circle drive welcomes you with paver accents and professional landscaping. There is a single car garage if needed but surface parking abounds. Notice the new roof upon entry and then realize almost every aspect of this home has been renovated and updated creating a sleek, modern ranch home with an open plan. Inside, there is plank tile throughout and multiple french doors allowing access to the back yard anchored by a new, saltwater pool with a waterfall feature and an alfresco dining alcove. Back inside there is a separate dining area adjacent to the kitchen which also has a handy breakfast bar or serving counter depending on the activity. The proximity of the kitchen to the dining room and the outdoor dining alcove will make your Florida entertaining seamless. The kitchen, while petite is top of the line with a Bosch induction cooktop, microwave, and dishwasher. All the appliances are stainless, and the newer cabinets have a unique lacquer finish giving an overall appearance of bright cleanliness. One bedroom is currently used as an office and the other reserved for guests, has a private entry to the covered outdoor entertaining terrace and pool. These two bedrooms share a full bath matching the contemporary décor of the entire home. The owner's suite, with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath also has direct access to the large, covered, rear porch overlooking the back yard and pool. A recently installed well provides water for irrigation. The property is completely fenced, and the large tool shed has an adjacent covered work area you might find quite suitable for hobby work or outdoor exercising. Improvements you might not initially see but could be the most important include insulated windows, all new duct work, a spray foam insulated attic for energy efficiency, updated plumbing, recessed lighting on dimmers and plenty of built out closets, many with mirrored doors. Most know this neighborhood is anchored by Sarasota's oldest and grandest institutions like the Sarasota Ballet, the Asolo Theater of Performing Arts, New College of Florida and the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art which is right next door! Some of the neighborhood drama is provided by rows of majestic oak trees and views of historic Mediterranean styled museums. This property is close to everything Sarasota has to offer without sacrificing cul-de-sac like quietude and almost complete privacy in a back yard oasis.
