Under contract-accepting backup offers. This private wooded 0.6 acre lot is located conveniently halfway between downtown Sarasota and the UTC Mall. Built in 1984, this unique home gives a Mid Century vibe. With its glassed-in sunroom adjacent to the great room and kitchen, the home is bright and cheery. The open floor plan opens up onto the vast back yard that continues endlessly on protected preserve land. The patio area is just off the sunroom and offers plenty of space both covered and open for entertaining. The built-in outdoor grill and covered patio are perfect for an al fresco dining experience. Lighted walking paths wander around the pond and the backyard glows with lots of landscape lighting. With the lush irrigated landscaping, the backyard resembles a mini Selby Garden. The three bedrooms and three bathrooms offer lots of options for a den or office setting. All bathrooms have been remodeled with a sleek modern design. You also have an option to step into the private backyard for an outdoor shower experience! Though the house is located on the edge of a flood zone, it has never flooded and sits higher than most homes in the neighborhood. The home has a newer metal roof that will last for decades. This is a very cool home on a unique lot in a great location and you will be impressed by both the home and setting. Call for a showing today!
