Refined Sarasota living. This recently refreshed residence blends style, comfort and privacy, backing onto a tranquil nature preserve for an indoor-outdoor sanctuary. The open floor plan is highlighted by soaring vaulted ceilings, crown molding, and expansive sliding glass doors that flood the home with natural light and frame views of the lush greenery beyond. Formal living and dining areas flow effortlessly together, ideal for intimate evenings or entertaining. At the heart of the home, the kitchen with its own dining nook opens to the main living spaces and overlooks the screen-enclosed pool and patio. The private primary suite offers serene preserve views, while two additional bedrooms, including a versatile office/bedroom, comfortably accommodate family or guests. Peace of mind comes with thoughtful updates such as tile roof (2020), air conditioner (2020), appliances (2020) and pool screen (2019). Residents of Mote Ranch enjoy a wealth of amenities, community pool, clubhouse, riverfront dock and scenic walking trails, all with low HOA fees and no CDD, and just minutes from University Town Center, championship golf, downtown Sarasota/Waterside, Lakewood Ranch and Gulf beaches.
