This beautiful newer Spanish/Mediterranean home with about 2000 sq ft is located downtown in Gillespie Park, one of Sarasota’s hottest up-and-coming neighborhoods. This beautiful former model two-story home has great curb appeal and with it’s mixed residential/commercial friendly Downtown Neighborhood (DTN) Zoning, it gives you the ability to live and work at the same location. The downstairs open floor plan with high ceilings and crown moldings combines the entry, living room, dining room and kitchen, including a half bath giving it a loft like feeling. Plenty of windows give the living area a light and bright atmosphere. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms with high ceilings throughout. The spacious master bedroom suite has 11 windows, six of them in the master bath allowing you to bathe in the sunlight. This home had a new A/C unit installed in July 2018 and a new tankless water heater in October 2018. Because of its close proximity to the pulse of downtown Sarasota, Gillespie Park is exploding with development. This 10 acre park with a lake and walking paths has three tennis courts, a basketball court and a new dog park and a playground for kids. With only a short drive to St Armands Circle and Lido Beach, this family home is just minutes away from all that Sarasota has to offer.
