You won’t believe this waterfront opportunity in central Sarasota. With almost half an acre of land on a nice wide part of Phillippi Creek, this home offers the pairing of fantastic central location and tons of opportunity to expand. Upon entering the fenced driveway area to this home, you will notice a classic Sarasota ranch-style home. When you take one look into the back yard you might be amazed the abundant open space, trees, park-like setting and water views. This one story block home has been updated to include laminate floors throughout, a new 2024 metal roof, nice recessed can lighting, stainless steel kitchen appliances, and fresh exterior paint. The floor plan includes a dining room area as well as an oversized laundry area and two-car garage. This property could be ideal for boaters or water enthusiasts who, subject to permitting, could add a dock and boat lift. Just a short cruise to the mouth Phillippi Creek will allow access to Sarasota Bay and ultimately the Gulf! This body of water is often very tranquil and is great for paddle-boarding, fishing, kayaking, or just watching the water drift by. The location allows for easy access to US41 and is just minutes from Siesta Key, Downtown Sarasota, and all sorts of convenient dining and retail. There’s a lot to love about this slice of paradise, come and set up your private showing today!
