3350 Bougainvillea St., Sarasota, FL 34239

Sparkling quartz countertops...wood-look tile...an open kitchen...This fantastic property combines the charm of established South Gate with a home that is practically brand new! Everything has been updated beautifully, plus the AC was replaced in 2018 and new windows with hurricane shutters were recently installed as well. You will love the open floor plan – unusual for this "classic" neighborhood – with a bright and cheery kitchen that overlooks the living room and also has an eat-in dining space that could alternatively be used as a cute reading nook or space for a desk. The property offers tons of storage, between the large walk-in closet in the master, the big inside laundry room, and a 1-car garage. Disappearing sliders open to the spacious Florida room, overlooking a huge fenced yard with loads of privacy and space to play. South Gate offers both an excellent feeling of community, with block parties and opportunities to actually know your neighbors, and an ideal location that is literally ten minutes to everything (Siesta Key Beach, downtown, shopping, dining, everything!). HOA fee is optional and helps support the very cool Sarasota School of Architecture recreation building, designed by Victor Lundy, and access to the community pool is available as well for a small fee annually. Don’t miss this adorable home that is just perfect for year-round living or as a seasonal retreat!
