## Description

### Agent Description
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Looking for space, flexibility, and freedom without HOA restrictions? This 4-bedroom, 2-bath Sarasota pool home offers exactly that. The backyard is built for enjoying Florida living, featuring a private pool, tiki hut, outdoor entertaining space, and a storage shed for added functionality. Whether you're hosting friends, relaxing by the water, or simply enjoying the sunshine, this outdoor setup creates a true backyard retreat. The front and side yard also offer a ton of activity space due to the corner lot positioning. 

Inside, the home offers a spacious and adaptable layout with multiple living areas that can easily be tailored to your needs. Create a formal dining area, home office, media room, playroom, or additional lounge space depending on your lifestyle. The kitchen has been updated with granite countertops, refreshed cabinetry, and newer appliances, blending practicality with a clean modern feel.

The home also features solar panels to help offset electric costs, plus a newer well and septic system for added peace of mind and efficiency.

Conveniently located near UTC Mall, Downtown Sarasota, Nathan Benderson Park, Bobby Jones Golf Club, Siesta Key Beach, shopping, dining, dog parks, sports fields, and everyday essentials, this property combines accessibility with the flexibility that’s becoming harder to find in Sarasota.

If you’ve been searching for a pool home with room to spread out and fewer restrictions, this is an opportunity worth seeing.
