Welcome to the Pine model in Village Gardens. Upon arrival you'll immediately notice the two-car carport and covered entry leading to the front door. Inside is a well cared for two bed, two bath villa with a number of improvements. A new AC system should provide years of comfort and the kitchen has been updated with a stainless-steel appliance package. Beyond the pickled, wood floored entry is the great room which contains living and dining areas. Vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows make a large space feel even more significant as light streams in from all sides. If the weather calls for el fresco entertaining you will enjoy the “4 seasons”, enclosed Florida room which is also accessible from the en-suite master bedroom. The master has a wall of mirrored closets and a carpeted bathroom with a walk in shower. The second bedroom, currently used as an office has plenty of storage. There's even an interior utility closet with a front load washer and dryer. And, hiding in the attic is loads of storage space and a natural gas, instant, hot water tank. Village Gardens is a beautiful, park like setting with a stunning tree canopy and recreational facilities including a heated pool, pickle ball & tennis courts and a clubhouse with activities. Conveniently located just north of downtown Sarasota and near the University Parkway corridor providing quick access to Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, UTC Mall and I75. This property can also be sold completely turn key & furnished.
