An elegant brick paver path leads to the charming front porch of this wonderful family home, positioned amid a peaceful preserve setting in Lakes Estates. Built by Pruett Homes, the split floor plan creates an ideal balance of private and gathering spaces, with four large bedrooms, formal living and dining rooms and a lovely family room with wood burning fireplace. A neutral color palette and volume ceilings create a feeling of openness, with carpet and ceramic tile flooring throughout the living areas. The kitchen is complete with stylish solid wood cabinets and Formica counters, while a separate breakfast area invites cheerful mornings. Step outside and you’ll find an oversized screened lanai and handsome wood decking, all enveloped by lush Floridian foliage. A three-car, side-entry garage with extra storage space and a new roof completes the picture of relaxed living. The Lakes Estates is a highly desirable Sarasota community, offering canopied sidewalks and rich recreation. Residents enjoy a lakeside pool, fitness center, clubhouse, and tennis courts, all within easy reach of Gulf Coast beaches, restaurants, shopping and cultural attractions.
