About this home

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Built in 2002 by Lee Wetherington Homes, this residence stands as one of the newer offerings within Laurel Oak Estates, combining timeless design with thoughtful updates and a sought-after cul-de-sac setting overlooking tranquil pond views. Spanning more than 3,300 square feet, the home is designed for both everyday living and entertaining. High ceilings with tray details, crown molding, arched doorways, and expansive windows create a bright, open atmosphere throughout. A glass double-door entry introduces the formal living and dining spaces, where a built-in buffet or bar enhances functionality for hosting. The living room is highlighted by an aquarium-style window framing views of the pool and water beyond. At the center of the home, the eat-in kitchen serves as the hub of the layout, featuring solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a center island, breakfast bar, and casual dining nook. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, where pocketing glass sliders open fully to the screened pool deck-creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. An oversized media room just off the family room offers additional flexibility and also provides direct access to the outdoor living space. The primary suite is privately positioned and features French doors to the pool deck, dual walk-in closets, and an en-suite bath designed for comfort and functionality. Two guest bedrooms, a dedicated office with built-ins, and a bonus room complete the layout. Outdoor living is equally compelling. The pavered pool deck is fully screened and offers covered lounge and dining areas, a swimming pool, and a raised spa with a waterfall feature-all overlooking peaceful water views. Mature landscaping and a side-entry three-car garage enhance curb appeal, while the short cul-de-sac location adds an extra layer of privacy. A newer roof (2023), updated pool cage (2012), and whole-house generator contribute to the home's overall readiness. Laurel Oak Estates is a guard-gated community known for its manicured grounds and estate-sized homes. Residents have the option to join Laurel Oak Country Club, offering two championship golf courses, tennis, pickleball, aquatics, and an active social calendar. Beyond the gates, the location places you moments from The Celery Fields, Rothenbach Park, and Waterside Place at Lakewood Ranch, along with UTC's shopping and dining district. Downtown Sarasota, SRQ Airport, cultural venues, and the Gulf beaches are all within easy reach, creating a lifestyle that balances privacy with accessibility....
