Built in 1924, this epic Sarasota home is special! Situated on an enormous over half acre lot with majestic oaks and rolling manicured lawn. Relax on the front porch with peaceful views of the intercoastal. Literally steps to community boat launch, bring your kayak! The house itself has been lovingly maintained and meticulously restored, a true classic. Once inside you'll appreciate the long grain yellow pine floors and attention to detail. Every surface of wall has been refinished to period qualityincluding cut reveal around windows and crown moulding. All five entry doors are authentic french doors, some including transoms. Ample, south facing living room is bright and cheery and features stately fireplace with solid mantle and original candlelight fixtures! Current office (once music room) has tons of built-ins and two walls of pane windows. Lovely kitchen features a butler's pantry and beautiful built-in china cabinet, reminescent of Ringling days.. Both baths have been thoughtfully updated and reflect the character of this special home. One bath has a one inch thick lit wall of glass in the shower, and the other has hand made cabinet doors that match those of it's original days.. Mexican tile punctuates the cozy screened back porch..convenient patio beyond serves as a sweet summer kitchen. Large garage houses a super workshop but can be easily cleared for parking your toys. Super opportunity for those of us who love historic value and character. Give yourself extra time to enjoy!
