Experience timeless elegance and mid-century charm with this West of Trail Mennonite built gem, nestled on a generous 12,630 sq ft lot, slightly over a quarter acre. This home is not just a place to live; it's a piece of art waiting for you to claim it. Situated directly across from the lush landscapes of Jungle Gardens, its curb appeal invites you into a world where classic design meets modern living. The backyard is a blank canvas, fenced for privacy and spacious enough to accommodate a pool, an outdoor kitchen, or your very own garden paradise. It's an ideal space to forge your personal oasis, where tranquility meets creativity. Inside, the home offers a unique layout with a separate entrance leading to a versatile third bedroom and second bath, presenting endless possibilities from an in-law suite to a home-based business. Step into the original bungalow and be greeted by hardwood floors that whisper stories of the past. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, while Venetian-inspired archways, brass & glass doorknobs, and a "finished" attic add layers of character and charm. The large Florida room, adorned with gleaming terrazzo floors, offers a bright and inviting space for relaxation or entertainment. Located in the Sapphire Shores neighborhood, this home is a stone's throw away from two bay-front parks, enticing restaurants, and vibrant cultural venues. Its proximity to downtown Sarasota, St. Armands, and the Lido/Longboat Keys ensures that leisure and convenience are always within reach. This property is not just a home; it's a lifestyle waiting to be embraced. The only thing missing is you.
