Description
This three bedroom plus den home is a best buy within the sought-after Palmer Ranch. The well established Deer Creek neighborhood is a gated, 285-acre community with scenic natural surroundings convenient to all that Sarasota has to offer. Situated on a premium lakefront lot with over ¼ acre, this home is ready for move-in, but could also appeal to the buyer who would like to upgrade a home to their own particular style. The roof was replaced in 2016 with high quality “lifetime” shingles. This was a complete tear-off and re-roof with new soffits and gutters. The 4-ton 16-SEER 2-stage A/C system is brand new in 2022. Major upgrades were done around 2002 with 20” porcelain tiles installed on the diagonal throughout the home, new kitchen cabinetry and granite counters. At that same time, the master bathroom was remodeled with a jetted bathtub, Jerusalem stone counters and an awesome zero-clearance walk-in shower that allows easy wheelchair access. The hot and cold water lines were replaced in 2004. The living area has ten foot ceilings throughout, plus the expansive great room has extra height with a volume ceiling which highlights the lovely fireplace. There’s a dinette area adjacent to the kitchen providing a cozy breakfast spot in addition to the formal dining room that can easily accommodate large dinner parties. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet space, loads of drawers, plus convenient desk area and a 4-foot pantry. The high ceilings and large window in the den/office make for a light filled happy spot. The master suite has complete privacy on one end of the home and boasts ten foot ceilings, his and hers closets (one of them being a walk-in), and sliders to the lanai/pool area. The guest bedrooms are on the complete opposite side of the home from the owners’ suite. Both guest bedrooms have walk-in closets, and one has a slider to the lanai and pool area. The guest bathroom doubles as a pool bath. Laundry is a breeze in this huge laundry room with a utility sink, great counter space, 6-foot closet, plus a window. And the 2 car garage has a built-in workbench for all those tools that homeowners seem to collect. The covered lanai with nice sized custom pool has plenty of space for lounging as well as room for outdoor dining. The sought-after western exposure and lake view are a bonus. With low HOA fees, that include a 24-hour gated security and an active social calendar, the highly sought after Deer Creek Community is hard to beat. Various resident committees provide a wide range of opportunities for activities, interaction with neighbors and social and cultural events. There are two biking groups for riding the nearby Legacy Trail, two book clubs, a monthly mixer, mahjong, city tours, holiday parties, and more. Top rated schools and being just minutes from downtown Sarasota, the world famous Siesta Beach, and the popular Legacy Bike Trail make this the ideal location for all! A central location to some of the area's best schools, golf, dining, and shopping is perfect for anyone! Whether you are looking for a move-in home or one that is priced to allow for remodeling, you won’t want to miss this one.
