Mid-century inspired architecture paired with a complete modern renovation, set along a tranquil creek that offers a peaceful waterfront backdrop with a unique elevated setting. Positioned high above the water, the home enjoys serene views, with frequent wildlife sightings from both inside and out. Recent improvements include a new roof, hurricane-rated windows, designer lighting, and all new large-format tile flooring throughout. A dramatic step-down living area adds architectural character, while the custom kitchen remodel features high-end KitchenAid appliances and bar seating ideal for entertaining. Two spacious bedrooms include walk-in closets, and the expansive Florida room-finished with upgraded window tint-serves as a versatile flex space that could easily accommodate a Murphy bed. The home offers two beautifully updated bathrooms, including a hall bath with a separate tub and walk-in shower, and a well-appointed primary bath with a large walk in shower and bench. Situated on a 10,000+ sq ft oversized corner lot, the property features a new paver driveway, extended patio, and a generous side yard that could accommodate a future pool or expanded outdoor living space. Mature trees create a natural backdrop behind the home, enhancing the peaceful water setting. Despite its waterfront location, the home sits high above sea level, has never flooded, and has withstood hurricanes. The garage is enhanced with a newly installed Shark Floor coating, providing a durable, sleek, and easy-to-maintain finish. Enjoy tranquil outdoor living with water behind the home, where you'll regularly spot fish, turtles, and a variety of birds in your own private nature retreat. Not located in a flood zone, and with no HOA or CDD fees, this move-in-ready property offers freedom, flexibility, and peace of mind. Located in the highly desired Southgate Neighborhood. Conveniently located minutes to downtown Sarasota, approximately 10 minutes to Siesta Key Beach, and between two top-rated hospitals. Turn-key, move-in ready, and truly one of a kind.
