Property Description

Virtually Staged. Imagine starting your day with coffee on the spacious screened lanai, taking in peaceful lake views with the fairways of The Meadows Golf Course stretching beyond. Set on an oversized 0.29-acre lot in desirable Devonshire Place, this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 80 feet of lake frontage, a generous backyard with plenty of room for a pool, and a private irrigation well for watering the lawn. Inside, more than 2,100 square feet of living space feels open and inviting, with high ceilings, crown molding, laminate wood flooring, and double-pane windows. The generously sized kitchen offers abundant counter space, stainless steel appliances, and a sunny dinette overlooking the outdoors, while a separate formal dining room provides the perfect setting for entertaining. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and an en-suite bath with a soaking tub and separate shower. An interior laundry room and two-car garage add everyday convenience. Even better, a new tile roof with a 15-year transferable warranty offers added peace of mind. There is no CDD, and the home is located in Flood Zone X. But life in The Meadows is about much more than the house. Spend your mornings on the golf course, take evening walks along miles of sidewalks and trails winding past lakes and mature landscaping, or simply enjoy the relaxed, established feel of one of Sarasota’s most distinctive communities. An optional Meadows Country Club membership opens the door to championship golf, tennis and pickleball, a Junior Olympic pool and hot tub, and a fitness center. The community also offers a playground, dog park, basketball courts, and a storage lot for trucks, RVs, and boats. Just minutes away, Nathan Benderson Park offers additional waterfront trails and world-class rowing events, while UTC, I-75, Mote Marine Aquarium, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, downtown Sarasota, and the Gulf beaches are all within easy reach. With lake and golf course views, an oversized homesite, room for a pool, and a location that puts so much of Sarasota at your fingertips, this is more than a place to live—it’s an opportunity to enjoy the Florida lifestyle every day.
