Welcome to the perfect canvas to create your dream home with this unique property, ideally situated in a small, private enclave of homes in south Sarasota. This residence, brimming with potential, features a solid foundation and an excellent opportunity to bring your vision. This space can be transformed into a modern oasis with customization and updating to match your personal style. While the interior offers a blank slate, enjoy peace of mind with a roof installed in 2019, a new HVAC system in 2018 and re-pipe in 2011. Stepping inside this 3 bedroom (split plan) home, the spacious living area, adorned with a brick, wood burning fireplace, fully opens with pocketed sliders to the large enclosed lanai; a separate dining area located next to the kitchen offers a multitude of options to recreate the space. The large owner’s suite has loads of closet space and a single sliding glass door opening to the lanai. The ensuite bath includes a private shower area with a linen closet and one of a kind laundry pass through to the interior laundry room, which contains another storage closet, drop down ironing board and full-size washer and dryer . Throughout the home, pocket doors provide optional privacy, allowing you to easily separate or connect various rooms as needed. This design feature not only maximizes space but also offers flexibility as to how you use and enjoy each area of your home. Completing the home, an expanded two car garage provides sufficient space for two vehicles, as well as additional room for a workbench, toys and storage for those extra household items. The exterior of the property boasts a Florida Friendly landscaping which has been carefully and lovingly created and cared for, attracting a variety of birds and butterflies. Further enhancing the curb appeal, the lush, low-maintenance greenery creates an attractive Old Florida feel. Westlake Estates is conveniently located in close proximity to shopping, dining, entertainment, world famous beaches and I75. Abutting the community is Red Bug Slough Preserve, a 72 acre natural Florida environmental park with several miles of hiking trails, a small playground, picnic shelters and a fishing dock. Schedule a viewing today and imagine the possibilities of creating your dream home!
