This revitalized 2,550 sq' (+/-) single level home is in coveted Harbor Acres and within walking distance to the quaint Southside Village, Sarasota Bay and the energizing downtown area. Bistros, gourmet markets, art galleries and all things exciting will be yours to explore. With remodeling beginning in 2016 to Miami Dade Hurricane code regulations, improvements include the addition of a 750 sq' (+/-) Primary Suite with full bathroom for one and a 3/4 bath for another, both with walk-in closets thru-outs, modern lighting and plumbing fixtures, refurbished oak flooring, granite counters, security system, whole-house stereo speakers, new appliances, 426 sq' screened porch for outdoor entertaining, paver circular driveway with additional parking pull-outs, landscaping and dramatic lighting and a custom made art piece which is also an outdoor water feature. A new roof completed the project in 2022. The plan features a living area, separate dining room and kitchen in the center of the home, which separates the primary bedroom from the additional 2 bedrooms, for privacy. There is a storage building for outdoor accessories, a roomy 2-car, solid structure carport, water well for the sprinkler system and spray foam insulation in the attic. Not too big, not too small, no elevators, no shared parking, optional HOA dues of $125 a year and a one-of-a-kind opportunity, in a once in a lifetime location.
