$949,000 Sarasota 5BR, Located in the heart of , this expansive in Sarasota, Florida

Located in the heart of Sarasota, this expansive, private & perfectly maintained family home is sure to delight as you pass through the stately gated entrance. The neighborhood is less than 1 mile from the popular Tamiami Trail, convenient for shopping & entertainment, but the seclusion is apparent from the moment you arrive & see that the entire cul-de-sac is only 4 homes. Unlike other parts of Sarasota. When you're enjoying the pool on your screened lanai, you see plenty of oak trees but not plenty of neighbors. If inside space is what you need for your family, this home has it with 5 bedrooms, 3 with en-suite bathrooms in their own wing, with stairs up to a separate game room that could double as a 6th bedroom. The master suite is ideally positioned off the home's entrance, offers access to the lanai & features his/her closets with ample space for the best of wardrobes. The owners/builders added special touches including niches to display art work, tray ceilings, cove lighting, & a kitchen with many useful features you'll have to see for yourself. To say you are close to schools is an understatement, as the property is within walking distance to International Baccalaureate School District Phillipi Shores Elementary, Brookside Middle School & Riverview High School.
