With NO HOA, a large fenced backyard, and a flexible 2 or 3-bedroom layout, this Sarasota home offers the versatility to make it your own or capitalize on its investment potential as a desirable rental property. The living room sets the stage for everything from casual conversation to hosting company. The kitchen features granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, while the nearby dining room provides a dedicated setting for everyday meals, holidays, and special occasions. The primary bedroom stands out for its generous size, offering a spacious retreat at the end of the day. The second bedroom is well-suited for family or guests, and a large bonus room on the opposite side of the home gives you the option of a third bedroom or an entirely different space to enjoy, such as a home theater, game room, home office, or hobby room. Two full bathrooms have been updated with modern finishes for a polished, refreshed look. Outside, the NO HOA lifestyle becomes one of the home's biggest advantages. The fenced backyard is yours to enjoy and personalize, whether you envision a garden filled with tropical plants, evenings around a fire pit, a shaded spot to unwind, an outdoor dining area for weekend cookouts, or plenty of room for kids and pets to enjoy the outdoors. Mature trees and tropical landscaping already provide a beautiful backdrop, while the paver patio gives you a place to relax and enjoy the yard from day one. The location puts you close to everything that makes Sarasota such a desirable place to live, from shopping, dining, parks, and entertainment to the restaurants, boutiques, arts, and waterfront of Downtown Sarasota. St. Armands Circle and the world-famous white-sand beaches of Siesta Key and Lido Key are also just a short drive away, making it easy to spend an afternoon by the Gulf and still come home to your own private backyard. This property is being sold strictly AS-IS. Please ask your agent for a copy of the comprehensive home inspection, 4-point, and wind mitigation report.
