2480 Alameda Ave., Sarasota, FL 34234

Truly one of Sarasota’s favorite neighborhoods, Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores is a charming community along the Sarasota Bayfront. This home is a short distance to the bayside to enjoy the enchanting Sarasota sunsets or launch a kayak and is a few steps from the historic McCall House. Sitting on a double lot on a tree-lined street, the home has maintained a few of its Dutch built attributes but has had two remodels from a previous owner and the current owner. Walking in you will be surprised at the large open concept living this home gives along with the natural light from the multitude of windows throughout. An updated kitchen with Lube Italian Cabinetry and Avonite countertops was completed in 2006. The perfect cooking island with cooktop, oven and microwave drawer keeps the chef inspired while entertaining. Three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, laundry room with tub, an adjacent room large enough to be an office or a walk-in pantry with room for an additional refrigerator, two living spaces (one with a fireplace) and a dining area complete the downstairs. The upstairs was converted to a master suite with furniture designed for the space (that will stay) along with a remodeled bathroom and a dream closet that allows you to shop your wardrobe. Consistent tile flooring installed 2008 throughout the downstairs with bamboo flooring upstairs and in one of the downstairs bedrooms. There is an additional building on the property (an additional 240 square feet) that was used as a music room by the previous owner and now is the “man cave” for the current owner. Other updates include house replumbed, walls replastered, ceilings redone, the exterior of home painted (9/2020), interior completely painted (7/2019) and a metal roof that will last for years to come. An opportunity to buy in the Indian Beach area and own a home on two lots is rare, so come check out your dreams of living within a short distance of Sarasota Bay, Bay Haven School, Ringling College of Art & Design, Starbucks and close to Jungle Gardens, the Ringling Museum, the Asolo and downtown Sarasota.
