A remarkable totally renovated residence, this rare Sarasota gem has been completely transformed down to the studs and is nestled on nearly one acre of lush, private land, within the peaceful, guard-gated community of Laurel Oak Estates. This 4-bedroom sanctuary has been thoughtfully re-designed to the highest of standards with a focus on modern luxury, low-maintenance, safety, and energy efficiency. Every detail has been reimagined, from a complete interior gutting and updated floor plan by Jonas Yoder Custom Homes to the integration of energy-efficient systems. Custom wood cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, imported 24" large-format porcelain tile floors with 6" baseboards, premium Bosch appliances, 12' and 10' ceilings, and state-of-the-art LED lighting elevate the home's aesthetic and functionality. The expansive windows and doors allow fantastic natural light to dance across the luxe interior spaces. Enjoy peace of mind with a newer roof fortified with open-cell spray foam, hurricane-rated sliding glass doors, energy efficient double-pane Anderson windows with hurricane shutters, 3M safety/security UV-blocking window film, whole-house Kohler generator, and hurricane-rated garage doors. Green building materials, all-new PEX plumbing, high-efficiency Trane HVAC systems, and low-VOC Benjamin Moore paint ensure a healthier indoor environment. The open floor plan features a beautiful great room perfect for entertaining with focal walnut wood wall with built-in TV and cabinetry, spacious Chef's kitchen with large island, a serene primary bedroom with lavish bath with 3-D porcelain tile shower and all new cabinetry, countertops, and plumbing. The guest bedrooms are totally updated as well. The spacious screened lanai features a heated pool and spa, custom outdoor kitchen, and shower, surrounded by mature Florida hammock, tree canopies, and wildlife. The expansive property offers a serene connection to nature and the pesticide-free grounds are part of an Audubon-designated bird sanctuary. Updated hardscapes include a circular driveway, steppingstone pathways, and a new irrigation system with rain-sensing technology. Laurel Oak Estates is an exclusive, 813-acre gated community in Sarasota, Florida, offering a blend of luxury living, natural beauty, and unparalleled amenities. Renowned for its tranquil ambiance, the neighborhood features estate homes, private lots, and lush landscapes adorned with mature trees, hammock, and picturesque canopies. Residents enjoy a peaceful setting with low traffic, quiet streets, and 8+ miles of walking and biking paths, providing opportunities for relaxation and recreation. The heart of Laurel Oak Estates is its private, recently renovated member-owned country club, which offers two championship golf courses, a world-class tennis and pickleball complex, and vibrant social events. Membership is optional. With its 24/7 guard-gated security and close proximity to Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch's top attractions, dining, shopping and culture, plus easy access to the pristine Gulf of Mexico beaches, the community provides a perfect blend of seclusion, convenience and the ultimate Florida lifestyle.
