6009 Winchester Pl., Sarasota, FL 34243

A meticulously kept lakefront home in the Mote Ranch community of Arbor Lakes Estates, this property has great curb appeal and lush landscaping, including a fruit tree. This three-bedroom, two-bath home has a screened entrance, opening to the attractive double front doors. The functional layout affords a large great room, separate dining room, eat-in kitchen, solid wood cabinets, granite countertops, side built-in desk and a large glass enclosed lanai to enjoy the lake view. The barrel tile roof is immaculate, and there is a two-car garage with finished floor, plenty of storage and hurricane shutters. Community facilities include a junior Olympic-size pool, screened-in picnic area, kayak launch, playground, nature trails and a fishing pier along the Braden River. Legendary Palm Aire Country Club membership is not required, but well desired. Convenient to the new University Town Center mall, it is also close to restaurants, airport and I-75. A must-see!
