1041 Indian Beach Dr., Sarasota, FL 34234

Architectural jewel west of the Trail, mere minutes from Ringling College of Art and Design! This home exudes historic charm while having undergone extensive, compatible improvements. It is situated on a deep, shady rear-fenced lot & recently “eco-landscaped” front yard featuring wrought iron fencing, showcase lighting & a pond with fountain. A huge stacked stone fireplace serves as a focal point in the large living room adjoining a dining room with pecky cypress coffered ceiling, cypress walls & built-ins, just off a large, cheerful kitchen. Features such as beams & corbels, stone, colorful tile & mosaic are reminiscent of nearby opulent buildings. Partial replumbing, kitchen tile & cabinetry refurbishment, bathroom remodel/reflooring, insulation, full HVAC replacement in May 2015, flooring resealing, & interior repainting have updated while preserving the home’s original flavor. Adjacent to the 2nd bedroom is an inside laundry/utility room, potentially convertible to a 2nd bathroom. Outside living areas maintain the original ambience of this home, with a screened front porch & both covered & open flagstone patios in the rear. Pricing the home to sell, the owner hopes its next owner will enjoy residing in this very special property.
