About This Property

Southgate Classic! Vintage mid-century modern 1950's three-bedroom/two-bath ranch home located in premier Sarasota school district (Southside Elementary). Solidly built home reflecting $100K of upgrades and replacements within last two years: new high-end standing seam roof with aluminum super gutters, new A/C unit, additional attic insulation, fresh paint, plumbing re-piping (including supply line to house) with new faucets, Gerber toilets, fixtures, garbage disposal, and appliances. Vintage terrazzo floors flow seamlessly in the three bedrooms and living area offering a sleek look and easy maintenance. Enjoy the light and spacious bonus room off the dining area (could be 4th bedroom as there is a removable closet) with door to patio. Set on a high lot, the Florida-friendly landscaping offers an appealing view from the street and affords easy maintenance on your expansive approximately ¼ acre yard - a haven for birds and butterflies. Backyard is fully enclosed with new fencing and gates and would be perfect for a pool. There are two rooms at the rear of the two-car carport: a fully-enclosed laundry room and a shower room for use after a trip to Siesta Beach (approx. 6 miles away) or to the Southgate Community Center's pool/community center & park open to Southgate residents for a nominal annual charge (within a mile). This comfortable home offers great value in its construction and condition and proximity to all that Sarasota and this particular neighborhood have to give: the culture of the downtown area (museums, performing arts centers, theatre, entertainment, fine dining, St. Armands Circle, beaches, golf, shopping), and - last but by no means least - the serenity of Arlington Park (and its dog park), a close distance from the house. A solid house, updated with many improvements offering care-free living at an attractive price in a neighborhood residents love - welcome home!
