Property Description

Enjoy exceptional golf course living overlooking the 15th hole at Sara Bay Country Club, designed in the 1920s by renowned golf course architect Donald Ross. Ideally positioned on a premium 18,750 sq. ft. lot with sweeping fairway views, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers exceptional space and flexibility rarely found at this price point. The open great room floor plan is ideal for entertaining, with seamless flow to the patio where you can relax, watch play unfold, or refine your own short game on the private putting green.

A workshop area in the garage adds versatility for hobbies, projects, or additional storage. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Sarasota, you will enjoy easy access to dining, shopping, cultural venues, and Gulf beaches.
