Property Description
This is one of the best opportunities for usable acreage in the Sarasota area — ~5 acres with pool, room for barn/workshop, and rural zoning for animals - and only a short drive to Sarasota and white sandy beaches! Set within a rural community where neighbors keep horses, cows, goats and chickens, this well-maintained property offers practical acreage living with the space and flexibility many buyers are craving today. The land is open and usable, with an existing concrete pad already in place, ideal for a future barn, detached garage/workshop or guest house. Not heavily wooded, so fencing could be easily added to create defined areas for animals, gardening or additional structures as desired. Zoning (and HOA) allows for horses, livestock and outbuildings, giving the next owner the opportunity to tailor the property to their imagination. Inside, this bright and functional home offers 2,355 sq feet of comfortable living space, including 3 bedrooms in a split layout, plus a flex room suitable for an office, hobby space or nursery. There are 2 full baths and a half / cabana bath adjoining the second bedroom. The open plan kitchen with stainless appliances and two islands overlooks the pool and the large combined dining / living / family room - plenty of space to host a crowd. Outside, enjoy the pool and screened lanai, along with a smaller fenced area for pets or play. The surrounding area offers the natural beauty that draws many to rural Sarasota - frequent deer and sandhill crane sightings, open skies and peaceful nights under the stars. Located within an HOA community that supports rural living, the property offers a balance of space and neighborhood, and the area is known for it's laid-back, country feel while still being within a easy reach of town. Major improvements include new vinyl flooring throughout, water heater, and dishwasher (2025), pool resurface, lanai paving, exterior/interior paint and hurricane shutters (2023) and roof and A/C (2017). If you've been looking for usable acreage with flexibility and potential, this property is worth a closer look.
