Property Description
A truly rare opportunity in Sarasota! Nestled on 2 private acres in Racimo Ranches, this unique property features TWO separate single-family homes, offering endless possibilities for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or rental income. The main residence offers 3,179 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a 2-car garage. Inside, you'll find luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, crown molding, and a living room anchored by a cozy fireplace with custom built-in shelving. The spacious family room offers exceptional flexibility, making it ideal for a media room or multipurpose living space, complete with a built-in desk area and cabinetry. The kitchen features Corian countertops, bar seating, and easy access to the separate dining room, making entertaining a breeze. The split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy, with the primary suite tucked away on one side of the home, while the opposite wing features a guest bedroom with its own en-suite bath and an additional bedroom conveniently located near a full hall bathroom. Improvements include a metal roof (2021) and HVAC (2022). The second residence offers 1,473 square feet of comfortable living space with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a 1-car garage with laundry room, and its own private concrete driveway, adding convenience and independence. The living area features luxury vinyl flooring throughout, built-in shelving in the spacious family room, granite countertops in the kitchen, and a relaxing sunroom (20’x23’) overlooking the beautiful grounds. Improvements include a metal roof (2021) and HVAC (2024). Step outside and experience your own tropical retreat. Lush landscaping, mature plantings, flowering garden beds (5 rows of raised beds-4’x70’), lawn and garden bed irrigation, a deck with sandbox, and peaceful outdoor spaces create an inviting backyard oasis perfect for relaxing, gardening, or gathering with family and friends. Additional improvements include a new well installed in 2023 and fully paid-off solar panels installed in 2022, helping keep electric costs low while improving efficiency for both homes. Properties offering two homes on acreage in Sarasota with this much space, flexibility, and privacy are hard to find. Enjoy country-style living with room to spread out while remaining conveniently close to everything Sarasota has to offer.
