Property Description

Welcome to 3953 Prairie Dune Drive, located in the gated Country Club of Sarasota with a fully staffed security gate providing twenty-four-hour access control. Positioned along the second fairway, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom home offers golf course views and updates, including a new roof and replumbing. Low HOA fees add to long-term value, while the layout and setting provide an opportunity for updates or personalization over time. The interior features high ceilings, natural light, and a functional floor plan with two separate living areas. The formal dining room with a bay window sits adjacent to the family room with a wet bar. The kitchen includes a breakfast area, large pantry closet, wood cabinetry, bar seating, center cooking island, and pass through window to the lanai and pool area. The upstairs primary suite includes three closets, dual vanities with a separate makeup station, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and a loft overlooking the main living area and fairway. With five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two flexible bonus spaces, the home can accommodate multigenerational living, private offices, fitness or hobby rooms, and guest quarters. Outdoor features include a covered lanai, pool, spa, and golf course views. The property is located near multiple highly rated golf courses, including TPC Prestancia, the Legacy Trail, parks, marinas, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, including Costco, Sprouts, Publix, and Target, with Whole Foods and additional retail coming soon. Siesta Key Beach, voted the number one beach in America, is located less than five miles away. Optional membership to TPC Prestancia Golf & Sports Club provides access to golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness facilities, a lap pool, dining, and social events. Club amenities are currently undergoing renovation and are expected to reopen soon, with discounted membership opportunities available before reopening. 3953 Prairie Dune Drive offers a large golf course home in an established gated community with flexibility and the opportunity to personalize in a location close to golf, the Legacy Trail, and Siesta Key.
