Rarely available free standing 2 story villa on picturesque Palm Avenue in the heart of downtown Sarasota. Nestled behind the gate of an intimate enclave of 12 townhomes, this charming detached villa, the largest of the 12, lives like a home and is part of a homeowner's association (not a condo). As you enter the private courtyard, you immediately feel the uniqueness of this property. Double French doors open to a freshly painted interior with new porcelain tile throughout the first floor, and plantation shutters on all the windows. The dream kitchen features all Viking appliances, a natural gas cooktop, an integrated Subzero refrigerator, white custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and breakfast bar. The spacious dining room can accommodate a large table to entertain several people. The dining room extends to another terrace with a privacy wall where you can set up your grilling area and herb garden. Also located in the dining area, is a 60 bottle built-in wine refrigerator next to a pullout storage cabinet. The gracious living room features cathedral ceilings and a gas fireplace. The first floor also offers a well designed office with built-ins and a window, extra storage, a half bath, and access to a one car garage. The 2nd parking space is located under the common carport. Both of the 2 bedrooms upstairs have access to a large balcony to enjoy the outdoor. The primary bedroom features wood floorings, a generous walk-in closet, an updated bath with double vanities, and a large walk-in shower. The guest bedroom features a custom closet, updated bath with tub/shower. New A/C unit in 2023 was installed. This is the ideal property for someone who wants to be in a maintenance-free home in the vibrant downtown Sarasota with low monthly dues.
