2610 Ashton Rd., Sarasota, FL 34231

This unique circa 1925 property offers a charming home and a guesthouse nestled on a quiet cul de sac under ancient oaks in Sarasota’s Main Colony, a historic neighborhood named for the fishermen who settled the area in the 1920s. This storybook cottage is only 5 miles from downtown with its numerous restaurants and celebrated art district, and only 2 miles from the pure white sands of Siesta Key beach. The main cottage offers 2 light-filled bedrooms, a spacious living room, eat-in kitchen, full bath, dining room, office, and mudroom. High ceilings provide a spacious feel and ample windows bring the outdoors in. The fully independent, self-contained guesthouse featuring open rafters, a full bath, kitchenette, and a loft-like space that includes a dining room, living room and a sleeping nook for 2 is the perfect nest for guests, or as an artist’s studio, or can generate revenues as a seasonal or year-round rental. Please exclude chandelier in Main House kitchen. Both homes are fully furnished and privately positioned within a fenced lot among flowering trees and an intimate courtyard draped in fragrant vines. This “must-see”, one-of-a kind Florida gem has been featured in numerous national magazines (Coastal Living, Country Living, Classic Home and more).
