3512 E Forest Lake Dr, Sarasota, FL 34232

A rare opportunity for a mid-century modern home in a beautiful neighborhood. This award-winning home, meticulously kept and renovated by the owners, a local architect and interior designer, has everything from expansive water views of a natural lake, a wide-open floor plan for entertaining, and an acre of land for a family to enjoy…and all within 15 minutes of beaches or downtown Sarasota. Tucked privately behind native landscaping, this single-story modern residence welcomes you with an entry courtyard wrapped in Ipe wood planks and concrete around a full grown Seagrape tree. Upon entering the home, spectacular views of Old Forest Lake immediately wow every visitor. The vaulted ceilings give a loft feel and the open kitchen is centrally located for gatherings large and small. A true split plan offers a guest wing with 3 bedrooms and a full bath. The separate primary suite, with more expansive views of the lake, includes a den for watching late night TV. A professionally designed spa-like primary bathroom and generous dressing room provides serenity after a long day. Walk down the hall to a mudroom and large laundry room for life’s everyday needs. Around the corner, you'll find the large bonus room, with a separate entrance for Superbowl parties or kid's sleepovers. There is no lack of storage space throughout the house including an extra deep carport closet. The home and classic mid-century 4-car carport have been updated and designed to withstand hurricanes. This is truly a one-of-a-kind home in a one-of-a-kind location.
