One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Beautifully modernized and expanded bungalow in what may be one of the next hot neighborhood, only a few blocks from downtown Sarasota. Located on a large corner lot and shaded by stately old-growth trees, with room to build an awesome backyard patio. The interior is floored with beautiful golden-oak colored engineered hardwood, and designer tile in the bathrooms. A cozy bonus room at the front of the house features a wood-burning fireplace and could easily become an intimate dining room, study, or tv room. The living room is bright, airy, and open to the kitchen which has been updated with all new appliances, cabinetry with leathered black granite countertops, and complimentary grey-colored ceramic tile backsplash. The primary bedroom is spacious and features a walk-in closet enclosed by a pair of walnut-stained barn doors, and a set of patio doors that will one day lead to your piece of outdoor Sarasota paradise. The ensuite bathroom features a large walk-in shower with white-marbled tile that shines under the modern led lights, and a deep-water soaking tub. Finally dual sinks and elegant cabinetry complete this bathroom-oasis. And the guest bath follows suit. It too features dual sinks on elegant cabinetry, plus a large walk-in shower with dual shower heads, including a rain-shower head. The central air conditioning system is new and extremely efficient, with a 20-seer rating. Hot water is efficiently supplied via a new on-demand hot water heater, and the roof is only 7 years old. Friendly neighborhood with streetlamps and walkable parks nearby. Walk to Washington Blvd and Fruitville; minutes to restaurants and Ringling Blvd. This home is perfectly positioned in downtown Sarasota, within minutes of the quaint restaurants of Main Street, and the shopping of S.Pineapple Ave. Get in early, and be part of the exciting growth of this fabulous city.
