Property Description

Virtually Staged. Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath saltwater pool home ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Forest Oaks community. Offering 1,634 square feet of living space, this inviting residence combines comfort, privacy, and the best of Florida living in one of Sarasota’s most sought-after locations.

Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood with mature landscaping and minimal through traffic, this home offers a wonderful sense of privacy while remaining just minutes from Sarasota’s premier attractions. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan provides an ideal balance of togetherness and personal space.

At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen features tall soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, newer appliances, and a natural gas stove, making it perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The adjacent living and dining areas flow effortlessly to the covered lanai and screened saltwater pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle that Florida homeowners love.

The spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat, offering direct access to the lanai and pool area. The en-suite bathroom features a walk-in shower, ample vanity space and a walk-in closet with built-in organizers, providing convenient storage and everyday functionality. Two additional guest bedrooms and a well-appointed second bathroom are thoughtfully located on the opposite side of the home, ensuring comfort and privacy for family and visitors.
Step outside to enjoy the beautiful saltwater pool, creating a private retreat to relax, unwind, and enjoy Florida’s year-round sunshine. The screened lanai offers a comfortable setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or entertaining family and friends.
Updates provide added value and peace of mind, including a full roof replacement in 2018, new A/C system (2024), and new water heater (2024). Hurricane preparedness is enhanced with electric shutters on the front entry and lanai, along with manualy operated shutters for the windows. No carpet, tile flooring throughout the entire home. The home is connected to natural gas and is located in an X Flood Zone, meaning flood insurance is typically not required by lenders.

Location is truly exceptional. Just a short drive away you’ll find the world-famous beaches of Siesta Key Beach, upscale shopping and dining at St. Armands Circle, waterfront restaurants and marina activities at Marina Jack, as well as downtown Sarasota’s vibrant arts, dining, and cultural scene. Nearby parks, golf courses, medical facilities, and top-rated schools further enhance this outstanding location.
