Property Description

Welcome to award-winning University Park Country Club, where timeless elegance meets effortless Florida living. Located in the maintenance-free Notting Hill neighborhood, this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence with a versatile bonus room offers a move-in ready opportunity with thoughtful upgrades and an ideal open-concept layout. A charming walkway and driveway, surrounded by lush landscaping, lead to the home and its air-conditioned detached 2-car garage. Inside, a light-filled foyer with transom windows sets the stage for the bright and inviting interior, featuring high ceilings, ceramic tile flooring throughout, Bermuda shutters, and ceiling fans. Just off the entry, a flexible bonus space with custom built-ins connects seamlessly to the kitchen and opens to a private front courtyard via double sliders—perfect as a home office, den, or casual dining area. The main living area is designed for both comfort and entertaining, with a spacious open floor plan that unites the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The kitchen is well-appointed with rich cherry-colored cabinetry, granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and both recessed and under-cabinet lighting. The dining area offers a charming window seat with cedar-lined storage, while the living room features a triple sliding glass door that opens to the lanai. An additional set of double sliders from the kitchen leads to a side patio, enhancing indoor-outdoor flow. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat with direct access to the lanai through double sliders and includes two closets with built-ins. The recently renovated ensuite bath delivers a spa-like experience with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in shower with bench. A comfortable guest bedroom, also with courtyard access via double sliders, is complemented by a full guest bath with a tub/shower combination. A dedicated laundry room adds everyday convenience. Step outside to the extended paver lanai, where a covered seating and dining area overlooks a serene pond with a private, tree-lined backdrop—no neighboring homes in sight. This tranquil outdoor space is perfect for relaxing or entertaining year-round. Recent updates include a NEW A/C (2026) and a TILE ROOF (2025), offering peace of mind for years to come. Furnishings and household items may be available separately, providing a potential turnkey opportunity. Residents of Notting Hill enjoy maintenance-free living along with access to a community pool and spa, all within one of the area’s most sought-after gated communities. University Park Country Club is consistently ranked one of the top courses in Florida featuring 27 holes of championship golf; tennis and pickleball; fitness center, croquet – as well as an array of social and group activities. Just a 15-minute drive outside this peaceful enclave is downtown Sarasota, with shopping, arts & theatres, museums, dining and entertainment, top-ranked healthcare, beaches and SRQ International Airport. Two miles east of UPCC is the convenience of I-75, University Town Center with over 300 nationally known and homegrown shops, restaurants, fitness studios, services and attractions, the Nate Benderson Park, home of world-class rowing events and the Mote Marine Aquarium. Enjoy the club amenities with the required minimum of a Social membership at UPCC, which is owned by the residents through a Recreation District.
