Built in 1949

Lovingly renovated home in The Uplands! A quaint neighborhood along the bay, tucked out of sight off North Tamiami Trail, between the art and education complexes of Ringling Museum, Asolo Theatre, New College of Florida and USF Sarasota-Manatee. Originally built in 1949, with a two-story addition added in 1991, the current owner has substantially improved the beautiful home and the landscape! Newer roof and impact windows and sliding doors, Kitchen completely redone and Baths updated, engineered white oak hardwood floors, tile in Kitchen and Baths, wood french doors, stair system, and lighting/fans, all with lots of charm! Exterior paint, shade awning, screened porches on two levels, fenced yard, circular drive, lush landscaping with large yard, and outdoor storage. The detached garage has a new garage door, a long driveway, a side covered porch, and built in workshop/studio cabinets and sink, along with a storage loft. This is a beautiful home on a peaceful dead end street, enjoy the wildlife and nature here! The Uplands has its own natural centerpiece: a spring-fed pond, "Lake Uplands" that attracts a variety of native Florida birds. While this is some of the highest land near the bay, Flood Zone-X, which does not require flood insurance, it is only a couple of blocks from Sarasota Bay where neighbors watch sunsets and launch kayaks. The property has a Sarasota address but Manatee county taxes, and public water and sewer. The neighborhood association is low cost and voluntary. Downtown Sarasota, St Armands Circle, Lido Beach, and UTC shopping area are all within 15 miniutes. You could actually walk to SRQ Sarasota airport but this property is not on commercial flight path!
