Move in Ready and not impacted by recent storms. Recently renovated 2 bed, 2 bath Villa in the sought after Center Gate Community. A change in plans has the owners putting this home on the market after recently completing significant upgrades & improvements in 2023 and 2024. A tiled front porch leads to a foyer entry and opens to the combined Living Room and Dining Room. The kitchen has been “opened up” to overlook the family room and the sight lines will take your eye through to the Florida Room, the greenspace and community pool beyond. This is now a wonderfully spacious open plan more suited for today’s lifestyles. These living areas have been made contiguous with gleaming Brazilian cherry laminate floors, crown molding and updated fixtures & fans. The kitchen has quartz counters and an ample breakfast bar with a “waterfall” countertop feature. This is also an “eat in kitchen” with room for a full-sized dinette. The stainless steel appliance package is from 2023 and a beautifully decorative backsplash pops with color. The adjacent utility room has matching counters and backsplash and works as a prep kitchen as much as an interior laundry. The principal bedroom has an ensuite bath with granite counters and a walk-in closet. The second bedroom has multiple closets and access to the second bath and tiled shower. The bedrooms are carpeted for coziness while the kitchen and utility room are tiled. Keep an eye out for the decorative inlay which is coordinated with the backsplash motif. What was a “sun porch” has been elevated to the floor height of the rest of the home and now has the same Brazilian cherry floors. This space is air conditioned and adds square footage to the overall living area. The oversized, 2-car garage has a rubberized floor and hurricane rated overhead door. The roof with gutters and sunroof were replaced a year ago and have a transferrable warranty. The plumbing has been relined (2024), impact resistant windows are throughout, and the new hot water heater was installed earlier this year. The Sellers would consider putting a Home Warranty on this property but just about everything is still under warranty! This home is ready for you to move right in and start enjoying one of the most convenient locations in all of Sarasota County. Live here and you are minutes away from Doctors Hospital, I 75, all your shopping needs and a host of restaurants and entertainment venues. This development is not in a flood zone and remained “high and dry” in 2024. There are still affordable and intelligent places to live in Sarasota and 5725 Center Pointe Lane is one of them.
