Welcome to this unique and charming property, situated just one block (160 steps) away from the world-renowned Siesta Key Beach. This extraordinary opportunity presents not one, but two separate dwellings on a single private and fully fenced lot, enveloped by lush tropical landscaping, pavered driveways, and walkways. A unique property being offered fully furnished, making it instantly ready to enjoy or use as a lovely rental property. The main house, a single-story residence, is located at the back of the property for optimal privacy. Inside, you are greeted by a spacious living area, complemented by timeless hardwood flooring throughout. The eat-in kitchen is steps away with its breakfast bar, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and French door access to the outdoor entertaining area. The vaulted ceiling adds an airy and open feel to the space, and there's plenty of extra storage available. Three bedrooms occupy the main residence, including the primary suite with its own patio access. Across the courtyard, you'll discover the guest cottage, a remodeled gem that boasts 733 square feet of living space. This one-bedroom townhouse-style dwelling is a delightful space filled with charm and tasteful touches including Parquet wood floors that grace the living areas, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Upstairs, a spiral staircase leads to a cozy bedroom, while an expansive balcony/sundeck provides a private retreat with tranquil surroundings. Two walk-in closets offer ample storage. Both residences received new roofs in 2009. Outside, a saltwater pool takes center stage, surrounded by a pavered deck and enclosed by a screened lanai. This delightful oasis is perfect for soaking up the Florida sun, and the separate covered dining area offers an ideal spot for al fresco meals. Whether you're seeking a primary residence, vacation retreat, or an investment property, this Siesta Key gem offers a versatile and rare prospect. The combination of a historic main house and a beautifully updated guest cottage, all within steps of the world-famous Siesta Key beach, creates an exceptional and inviting living experience. Siesta Key is an abundant community with its own Village offering shopping, parks, and wonderful activities for the entire family to enjoy. Just minutes away are the renowned shores of Siesta Key beach, most well-known for its quartz-filled sand and azure waves. The prefect finishing touch is taking a short drive to the bustling life of downtown Sarasota to enjoy an array of activities, fine dining and shopping.
