Welcome to the best location in Sarasota! This entertainer’s dream home is updated and exceptionally nestled in the popular section of Magnolia Hammock, offering estate sized homes within the well-established and gated neighborhood at University Place. The customized 3500+ square foot home has elegant appointments throughout, featuring a newer ROOF(2021), beautiful landscaping, all paver driveway, and impressive architectural details. As you enter, you are greeted by volume ceilings adorned by crown molding in the foyer area opening to the formal dining room featuring an octagonal tray ceiling and open decorative archways. The flex room is tucked away in the front of the home, ideal for an office. Once you are in the gathering room, you will be amazed by the soaring 19’ vaulted ceilings offering built-in speakers, abundant recess lighting and picture-perfect transom windows bringing in natural lighting during the day to the star gazed nights. The remodeled kitchen opens to the great room surrounded by a custom bar area adjoined by a counter height bar perfect for entertaining any size gathering. Chef’s will be delighted with natural gas cooking, the handy pot filler, a center island, built-in desk for planning everyday meals all being conveniently located to the breakfast area lined by four sliding doors opening to the great outdoors. The primary suite feels like paradise outfitted with numerous windows, double tray ceiling, triple layers of crown molding and spacious for a sitting area. Additionally, there is a customized California closet featuring chic chandeliers, safe within the dreamy bathroom featuring dual sinks, vanity station, a jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and a private water closet. All guest bedrooms are found on the ground level featuring, 8’ interior doors, ceiling fans, generous closets. The two En-suites share a guest bathroom while the other two are conveniently placed near the second guest bathroom. The upstairs loft can be used as another office, playroom or by a multi-generational family. The private outdoors is completely enclosed by a privacy fence offering a covered lanai housing a customized summer kitchen, the 60’ wide screened-in pool area offers a gorgeous saltwater pool and spa with a newer pool heater and plenty of paver deck space for sunbathing. Rare to find this homesite on over 1/3 of an acre, the massive side yard is like no other and is one of the largest lots in the community. The very low HOA fees include mature landscaping, sidewalks, 2-resort style pools, fitness studio, tennis court, playground, a designated nature trail, irrigation controlled, and all within multiple gates without having to join any mandatory Clubs. This prime location is just outside the University Town Center (UTC) corridor closer than any neighborhood in Lakewood Ranch, saving you time on travel to our sandy beaches, downtown Sarasota’s cultural events, Fresh Market, Benderson Park and so much more without having to travel on Interstate 75. For added peace of mind you are located within a Top-rated school district, near a fire station and a one-year home warranty will be included. This sprawling home won’t disappoint.
