Welcome to the best of Mandarin Park, a gated, maintenance-free upscale community of 19 custom homes, West of Tamiami Trail in the heart of Southside Village/Sarasota Memorial Hospital district. There is arguably no better location, being only minutes to the beach, downtown Sarasota and a five-minute walk to the restaurants in Southside. The new whole-house generator, new roof in 2018, hurricane shutters, as well as the elevation at 17 feet, give peace of mind during bad weather. No damage to the house was incurred during past hurricanes, according to the owner, and flood insurance is not required. Step into a home where thoughtful upgrades and modern enhancements create an exceptional living experience. Every detail has been meticulously considered, from high-end finishes to energy-efficient solutions, ensuring a home that is as beautiful as it is functional. The heart of the home is an upgraded gourmet kitchen, featuring elegant granite countertops, custom cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances. The open floor plan seamlessly connects the kitchen to spacious living areas adorned with custom lighting, designer flooring and stylish accents. Morning begins with natural light streaming through large windows, creating a bright and uplifting ambiance. Retreat to the spa-inspired baths, where sleek vanities, luxurious tilework and premium fixtures create a serene atmosphere. The bedrooms are spaced apart for maximum privacy, and the primary bedroom has French-door access to the outdoor lanai. Step outside to the additional living space created by the Absolute Aluminum 49-foot lanai, including a custom 19-foot louvered pergola, making this outside area into an all-weather retreat, complete with impeccable landscaping. This lanai is the place to host barbecues and dinner parties, as well as being a peaceful escape for morning coffee or reading your favorite book. This home isn’t just a place to live, it’s a place to love living. Don’t miss the features sheet and list of upgrades. There’s nothing to do here but move in and enjoy!
