Neat as a pin inside and out! This expansive 2,645 sq. ft. 3 bed, 2 bath home with a den/office has been lovingly maintained and tastefully

updated. Central to the home is the new cook's kitchen which was featured in a home magazine. The new custom cabinets have pull out and soft close drawers with generous storage pantries. The granite counters and matching backsplash have an artistic flare with a marbled look of white and gray swirls. The center island and sink face the cozy breakfast bar for two and is open to the large family room with high vaulted ceilings and a slider leading to the pool which floods the room with natural light. Adjacent, are the two guest bedrooms, bath and the office/den/laundry room. Left of the kitchen is the spacious dining/living room combo with earth toned plank tile flooring which leads into the oversized master bedroom, also facing the pool. Large master bath with dual sinks, garden tub, walk in shower and two walk in closets. In the west facing screened lanai, you'll find an outdoor kitchen area with granite countertop, ample seating area for entertaining and a beautiful "S" shaped pool resurfaced in 2019. Bird lovers will appreciate the lake view with bird sanctuary island in the middle. During nesting season, herons, egrets and spoonbills call it home. This is a rare opportunity to observe Florida wildlife at its finest. New to the home is the 2 zoned A/C and hot water heater installed in 2022, flat lanai roof, pool pump, ceiling fans, flooring, interior and exterior paint, epoxy garage floor, work bench and sink, garage screen and the circular paver driveway framing a grand old oak. The landscaping is impeccably manicured with custom curbing accents and is irrigated from the lake. Roof was replaced in 2007 and it has been re-piped. This home is a real stand out in Sorrento East. In addition, homeowners may purchase or rent boat slips at the marina in Sorrento South (when available) through the Sorrento Dock Owners Association. Sorrento East is conveniently located between Venice and Sarasota, close to Nokomis Beach, Oscar Scherer State Park, schools, shopping, restaurants and only 11 miles to the world-famous Siesta Key Beach.
