Under contract-accepting backup offers. One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Tucked beneath a canopy of majestic oaks in the peaceful and established Sylvan Lea community, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers a tranquil escape surrounded by mature tropical landscaping and timeless Florida charm. A widened paver driveway welcomes you home, while vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a wood-burning fireplace create a warm and airy interior in the spacious great room. The open-concept kitchen features granite countertops, wood cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a breakfast bar ideal for casual gatherings. A flexible bonus room just off the kitchen functions beautifully as a formal dining space, home office, or den and opens through French doors to a screened atrium. Thoughtful updates include a new roof (2021), ceiling fans, epoxy garage flooring with built-in cabinetry, French doors at the atrium and entry, and refreshed flooring in the living room and two bedrooms. Step outside to your private screened lanai and enjoy the sparkling heated pool, comfortably shaded year-round under the native tree canopy, along with a fully fenced backyard featuring peaceful garden views and frequent visits from a family of Piliated Woodpeckers and Red-Shoulder Hawks. Bike or walk to the Celery Fields and Sarasota Audubon Nature Center, and minutes from the Big Cat Habitat, this location blends a love for nature with everyday convenience. The nearby Fruitville Farms plaza offers a newly built Publix, dining, and retail options, with additional development underway along the north side of Fruitville Road for even greater access to all you need. Residents enjoy the quiet, well-maintained character of Sylvan Lea with no through-traffic and easy proximity to I-75, downtown Sarasota, cultural venues, parks, trails, and world-famous Gulf beaches. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
