Premier West of Trail location in the coveted Oyster Bay Estates neighborhood just a few houses from the historic Field Club. Lushly landscaped 4 bedroom/3.5 bath bright and airy home offers plenty of room to spread out in a highly flexible floor plan. The inviting, skylight-brightened foyer accesses both a formal Dining Room and a large Family/Living Room with floor to ceiling stone fireplace, beamed cathedral ceiling, and stacking sliders leading to the covered patio and pool area. Overlooking the Family Room, the recently reimagined Kitchen (2019) features classic light cabinetry with granite counters, tumbled stone backsplash and a state-of-the-art Zephyr recessed ventilation system. Two bedrooms have en-suite baths, and the primary bedroom suite includes a spacious bathroom added in 2014 with double vanity, oversized soaking tub, and large separate shower with rain hat. The 2014 expansion also added a sunny office/bonus space with sliders to the pool area, and a 4th bedroom that could function as a guest/in-law suite with its private exterior entrance and adjoining bath. The oversized swimming pool is covered with a unique curved top cage and is surrounded by more than ample paver decking, and total privacy is afforded by established landscaping with mature tropical trees and shrubs. Plenty of storage space can be found throughout the home, and the 3-car garage is a rare and desirable added bonus. Some additional improvements include a new roof in 2012, HVAC 2014, and water heater 2020. All in an ultra-convenient location close to most of Sarasota's key destinations... beaches, downtown, restaurants, shopping, museums... yet in a quiet residential neighborhood just steps from the Bay and not in a flood zone!
