Description

Welcome to one of only a handful of fully detached villas in Strathmore Riverside Villas, complete with its own deeded boat slip in the community's 33-slip marina. Set in a waterfront 55+ community in South Sarasota just east of the Tamiami Trail, this villa pairs the privacy of no shared walls and windows on all four sides with secured access to the water, so you never have to wait for a slip to open up. The deeded slip, supported by an on-site dockmaster, offers canal access to Phillippi Creek, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Gulf beyond. Inside, the flexible floor plan features one bedroom plus a den that could easily be converted to a second bedroom, along with one and a half baths and comfortable living spaces that flow naturally throughout the home. The living room and dining area are finished with bamboo flooring and crown molding, while the den offers space for guests, a home office, hobby room, or second bedroom depending on your needs. At the center of the home, the updated kitchen features white raised-panel cabinetry, quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, floating shelves, and a window above the sink. Just beyond the kitchen, the Florida room is wrapped in windows and finished with light wood-look plank flooring, creating a bright space to relax with its own exterior entrance. The primary bedroom is privately positioned with wood-look plank flooring, a reclaimed wood accent wall, walk-in closet, and ensuite bath featuring a frameless glass walk-in shower. The interior laundry room also serves as a convenient half bath for guests and includes a full-size washer and dryer, vanity sink, and built-in storage. Hurricane glass windows and energy-efficient appliances are already in place, and the roof is only three years old. Outside, a private driveway leads to the covered carport and tiled entry patio, while an exterior storage closet provides room for bikes, beach gear, and fishing equipment. Mature landscaping and open lawn surround the villa on every side, adding to the privacy that only a detached home can offer. Community amenities include a waterfront clubhouse, heated pool, saunas, exercise room, billiard room, library, and an active social calendar. Siesta Key, Gulf Gate dining and shopping, Downtown Sarasota, and US 41 are all within easy reach. Come experience this rare detached villa with its own deeded boat slip and the waterfront lifestyle of Strathmore Riverside Villas in person. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
