You will be mesmerized by the potential in this welcoming single-family home perfectly positioned in the Sarasota Highlands neighborhood in a great location between Proctor and Swift Roads. The home is across the street from coveted Riverview High School, and just a short drive to Phillippi Shores Elementary. There is easy access to world-famous Siesta Key by bike or car, as well as to the newly expanded Legacy Trail. Upon entering you will note the open, airy floor plan with a large living and dining room. The family room is tucked back by a huge, screened lanai with picturesque views of the pond, ripe for fresh koi and ready for reflecting. Oh, if the kitchen could talk, she'd tell of bountiful baked goodies and of all the love folded right into the dough. The bedrooms are amply sized. There is a sneak peek at the original terrazzo, which seems to be begging to be uncovered and refinished. The large, corner lot offers plenty of room for expansion and a pool if you so desire. The yard will be full of spring surprises when the bulbs come up. Sit on the front porch and while the hours away, or roll up your sleeves in the yard, a gardener's delight. There is something for everyone here. Come make new memories in this treasured home. No deed restrictions. No HOA. No CDD fees. Great investment potential.
