Home Description
Nestled in the sought-after Sapphire Shores neighborhood, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a stylish and functional living space. From the moment you enter the private, lushly landscaped front courtyard, you'll be captivated by the home’s serene and secluded ambiance. The open layout seamlessly connects the living room, dining room, and kitchen creating an inviting atmosphere for both everyday living and entertaining.
The modern kitchen is a chef’s dream, boasting double center islands with ample storage, quartz countertops, a glass tile backsplash, and 42-inch cabinets with frosted glass doors, soft-close drawers, and under-cabinet lighting. High-end Bosch stainless steel appliances include a French door refrigerator, a smooth-surface 5-burner induction cooktop with a ceiling-mounted vented exhaust hood, a built-in convection oven, and a microwave drawer.
The study/den, complete with French doors opening onto the front courtyard, provides the perfect space for a home office or an optional fourth bedroom. The primary bedroom offers a tranquil retreat, featuring French doors that lead to a private screened sitting area—a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee while overlooking the lush backyard. From there, step into the ultimate outdoor sanctuary.
The expansive backyard oasis is a true highlight of this home, featuring a heated saltwater pool and spa framed by swaying palm trees, vibrant tropical landscaping, and a tranquil koi pond. Expansive pavers with artificial turf accents create a seamless outdoor living space, complete with a gas grill and ample seating. A private outdoor shower adds convenience, while the detached, screened cabana offers the perfect shaded retreat for relaxing or entertaining. Whether you’re unwinding in the spa, hosting a sunset gathering, or simply enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature, this backyard is designed for pure relaxation.
Additional highlights include impact-rated windows and doors (2024), terrazzo and travertine flooring, a natural gas tankless water heater, an irrigation system with a dedicated well, and recently replaced underground waste pipes (2024). Just a short walk to the bayfront at Sapphire Shores Park and minutes from downtown Sarasota, this home offers the ultimate Florida lifestyle—combining privacy, luxury, and convenience.
