5227 Myakka Valley Tr., Sarasota, FL 34241

THE.BEST.LOCATION.EVER! Unique opportunity to live next to Florida’s biggest state park, yet close to the wonderful town of Sarasota. This lovely updated pool home with a guest house shares 500 feet with Myakka River State Park, a 37,0000-acre wonderland teeming with wildlife. You have to see the view from the big screened lanai to believe how spectacular it is! The front porch features a slate floor and two impressive river rock columns. You enter the “L”-shaped home in the big dining room, followed by the kitchen, where you turn left to go to the living room and bedrooms. The living room has a wall of glass on the lanai side; French doors lead to the 20 x 23 lanai where there is always a nice breeze and a million-dollar view. The owners converted part of the old horse barn into a beautiful, cozy ca. 400 SqFt 1/1 guest house with a kitchenette. The rest of the barn features a number of big storage rooms, and a wide breezeway that leads to the 40 x 40 pole barn, where you can park your cars, tractors, boats, RV’s, you name it. The property, which is located at the end of a dead-end street, is a labor of love: the big oak trees are trimmed, the pastures are mowed, there are flowers everywhere, and the improvements are immaculate. Deed restrictions allow for boats and/or RV’s on the property, and there are no pet restrictions. Myakka Valley Ranches is a beautiful subdivision with miles of trails, a great social scene, located in a very good school district. There are no traffic jams, nor red tide!
