MYAKKA VALLEY RANCHES! 3/2 Schrock-built pool home on 5 park-like acres. This is the most affordable home on 5 acres currently on the market in Sarasota. It is located in one of the most beautiful, and desirable equestrian subdivisions, with miles of nature trails and some 280 friendly neighbors (the subdivision is ca. 2,500 acres). Although you are surrounded by nature, and the stargazing is great, you can be on the beach, or in Downtown Sarasota, in 30 minutes! The split-plan home has a great layout with the renovated kitchen connecting the family room and the dining room. The master bedroom is off the dining room; it has a walk-in closet, a renovated bathroom, and French doors leading to the big screened porch. The family room has a fireplace, and a set of French doors leading to the lanai. The two guest bedrooms and guest bath can be reached from the family room. There is a 2-car attached garage with a designated laundry area. The elevated, separate utility building measures 14’x24’; it is a great workshop with plenty of space for your bikes, mower, kayaks, you name it. The property combines the best of two worlds: it has around 4 acres of pasture (think horses, cows, goats, you name it), while behind the house, and in the southwest corner, you will find gorgeous, lush, old Florida tropical vegetation consisting of a mixture of palm trees, oaks, ferns, etc. A small Creek (the Howard Creek) forms the southern border of the lot. It is part of a 200-feet wide conservation easement that separates this property from the ones in the back. The views from the wooden deck, next to the pool are amazing! The big oak and pine trees that can be found throughout the lot provide natural beauty, and plenty of privacy! Check out this lovely property, and find out why Myakka Valley Ranches is sometimes called the last frontier of Sarasota!
