5500 Merrimac Dr., Sarasota, FL 34231

Elegant, two-story family home on an oversized lot, tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac on a canal just off Phillippi Creek. This large waterfront home, with an amazing 403 feet of frontage, has five bedrooms with four baths and is just waiting for a new family to bring her up to date or it could be torn down to create the perfect dream home. The screened lanai wraps around the pool and outside dining area while the fireplace warms the living room on cool evenings. Waterfront living gives you the opportunity to do a little fishing while the children play in the spacious yard. Pull into your two-car garage and experience this wonderful area with proximity to shops and schools for everyday convenience.
