Close to everything, yet tucked back on a quiet circle within Forest Lakes Country Club Estates, this charming and renovated home is a welcome reprieve and sanctuary for relaxation. The split 2 bedroom, 2 bath, pool home has an open plan with modern and clean Scandinavian-style kitchen and bathrooms and cork flooring throughout. The great room and both bedrooms feature walls of impact-rated sliders opening to the pool and backyard. The home has continued to be improved significantly over the last several years with new impact-rated windows and sliders (2016, 2019-2020), plantation shutters, paver driveway, front walkway, and pool deck, new pool cage (2018), new retaining wall at rear of property, new vinyl fence on the east side and a portion of the west side, new sod, landscaping, irrigation, and irrigation well, new garage door (2016), HVAC (2016), and hybrid electric water heater (2016). The renovated Palms Golf Club at Forest Lakes is steps away and available for your optional enjoyment. The perfect in-town location in an established neighborhood, this tranquil setting has you close to downtown, I-75 and UTC, and everything that makes Sarasota special. World-class beaches, phenomenal restaurants, arts and cultural events, shopping, and year-round outdoor activities will have you living the life you deserve.
