Enjoy the Sarasota lifestyle to the fullest in this original Ruth Richmond mid-century modern ranch home nestled on an over-quarter-acre lot in the sought-after Gulf Gate Woods neighborhood. The current owners have updated the house impeccably and acted as stewards of architectural history to retain the original charm and vision bestowed by its celebrated pioneering builder. From the moment you lay eyes on the paver-lined driveway, striking reclinata palm & gigantic blue agave surrounded by a low-maintenance crushed shell landscaping, and picturesque front patio with a vibrant front entry, you'll know you're in for a treat. Once inside, the light and bright living areas dazzle from the wood-look tile flooring, new lighting fixtures & ceiling fans, and a fresh coat of paint. The kitchen's granite counters, solid maple shaker cabinets, and stainless appliances add a couth flair that will make you the envy of your friends and family. Quintessential Florida indoor-outdoor living is engineered on a grand scale in the family room, where an entire wall of sliding doors leads to the newly added screened lanai. Beyond that, the backyard is a lush tropical arboreal canopy accented by towering pines, fanning palms, blooming bromeliads, and a robust fruiting mango tree, with plenty of room to add a pool if desired. When it's time to head back inside, step through the primary bedroom's private entrance to soak in the commodious quarters and check out the walk-in closet and updated en-suite bath containing a floor-to-ceiling walk-in tile shower and a stylish dual sink vanity. Then head out the chic barn door or hallway pocket door to investigate the guest bedrooms and bathroom adorned with the iconic acrylic door knobs that have become the designer's signature hallmark. If that weren't enough, there is a ring doorbell, updated HVAC with a purifying system of ultra-violet lights & new ducts, a PEX manifold for the intake plumbing providing a turnoff valve for each outlet, a well with a 20-gallon pressure tank, an enclosed air-conditioned laundry room with a bonus beverage refrigerator, an 11'x11' workshop, and hurricane impact windows & doors throughout the home (including the garage door). What's more, the HOA is optional for a nominal yearly fee, and the home's prime location in Gulf Gate Woods means it is just minutes to golf courses, boat clubs, and all the fabulous dining, shopping, nightlife & cultural events happening in Downtown Sarasota, and of course, the world-famous soft white sand and warm blue gulf waters of Siesta Key's beaches!
