440 Sapphire Dr., Sarasota, FL 34234

Great Sapphire Shores opportunity. It is not very often you can find such a cute cottage just steps from the bay. Front porch perfect for watching the world go by. Large wood burning fireplace for cozy winter evenings. Big, open kitchen with a breakfast bar and sliding glass doors out to a lanai and covered rear porch. Single car attached garage. And best of all, the current owner had an architect and contractor add a second bath and wonderful artist studio off the back of the house. Vaulted ceiling, large windows and access to the lanai make this a very appealing space for painters, sculptures or someone wanting to create a 3rd bedroom. But really, the biggest surprises include all the basics...newer roof ('08), new water heater, upgraded electrical panel, good AC compressor and air handler, etc...you may want to freshen the place up but this cozy cottage is worth the investment.
