In Sarasota's desired Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores/Museum District, this unique home offers a tranquil retreat with a manicured, hidden garden entrance that welcomes you to an oasis just moments from the bay and a neighborhood beach known for stunning sunsets. Listed as a one-bedroom, one-bath residence, this home also features a spacious office and bonus room that can easily serve as a second bedroom. All-block construction, filled with charming, original touches like arched doorways and a built-in dresser, the home balances historic appeal with modern updates such as river rock granite countertops, travertine tile floors, and a Rinnai instant gas water heater. The well-designed kitchen provides ample counter space, a dishwasher and a warm ambiance from abundant natural light. Every window is fitted with elegant wooden blinds, creating a cohesive, inviting interior. Outdoor living is elevated with two screened-in porches, an open patio and lush landscaping featuring fruit trees and Florida-friendly tropical plants, providing beauty and privacy. Enjoy a morning coffee on the front screened-in porch or unwind in the garden with a glass of wine, surrounded by nature and occasional visits from neighborhood peacocks and their young. The backyard is fully fenced with a 6-foot wooden fence, including a 10-foot gate opening for easy boat or RV storage. With an Airbnb track record, this property has earned Super Host status, a Customer Favorite badge and an all five-star rating over nine successful years. Ideally close to Jungle Gardens, SRQ Airport, Ringling Museum, Asolo Repertory Theater, Van Wezel Performing Arts Center and Sarasota’s award-winning beaches, you’re also a short distance to Bay Haven School of Basics Plus, one of Sarasota’s top elementary schools. Thoughtfully maintained inside and out, this move-in-ready home offers the ideal blend of privacy, charm and convenience in an idyllic neighborhood full of old Florida charm.
