Located West of the Trail, near downtown Sarasota and very close to Sarasota Memorial Hospital, this amazing home was originally built in 1926 and occupies 1.5 lots so it has ample room for a pool, a detached garage, and even parking multiple vehicles including an RV! Having been renovated over the years and meticulously maintained, this 3 bedroom, 2 ½ bath home has character and appeal not found in newer construction. With a covered porch on the front as well as a covered rear porch and a huge wooden deck overlooking a shady garden-like back yard, you will be sold before you even set foot inside! The double front doors open into a beautiful living room with a cozy fireplace and hardwood floors. The large, open kitchen has heat proof porcelain tile countertops, a breakfast bar, a separate sink and food preparation area, and plenty of room for the family to gather. This house also features a first-floor master suite that can be closed off from the rest of the house to serve as a Mother-In-Law suite, an Air BnB suite or even a home based college student apartment. The entire master suite is wired for a portable generator during storms and has its own A/C unit for individual climate control, and includes a large family room with a wet bar and refrigerator, a bedroom with a walk-in closet, and an en suite bathroom with a shower/tub combo. The master suite also has its own front and rear entrances as well as access to the kitchen and utility room. Moving upstairs, you will find two very large bedrooms each with nice closet space and separated by a large bathroom with a shower/tub combo. The upstairs is zoned off with its own A/C unit so it is perfect for saving money when not in use. In addition to loads of parking space, the backyard includes a storage building and a large wood working shop which can also serve as a storage facility. The house also features a new roof and hot water heater that were installed in 2018, an A/C unit installed in 2016, and a new washer and dryer in 2019. The seller is motivated so come tour this wonderfully unique and carefully maintained home in the one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Sarasota today!
