Nestled in the desirable Sara Bay Country Club community, this Arthur Rutenberg home offers an exceptional opportunity to make it your own. Golf membership is not required, while the voluntary HOA provides access to dining and social events at the clubhouse restaurant and lounge. Ideally located midway between Downtown Sarasota and Downtown Bradenton, and just a short walk to Sarasota Bay.
Situated on an oversized 23,335-square-foot L-shaped lot, this property offers plenty of privacy and outdoor space. A large fenced backyard provides a secure area for everyone and pets, while the property extends approximately 340 feet to picturesque Bowlees Creek, creating a peaceful natural backdrop.
The interior is ready for your personal updates, but many of the home’s major improvements have already been completed, including a new barrel tile roof (May 2023), a new pool screen enclosure (2024), recently resurfaced pool, hurricane-impact windows and sliding glass doors (March 2018), Carrier HVAC system (June 2018), and a Generac whole-house generator (June 2019). With solid construction, an outstanding location, and significant exterior upgrades already in place, this home is ready for its next chapter.
