669 45th St., Sarasota, FL 34234

Nestled in the middle of "the Museum Area" on Sarasota's north side is an enclave of homes built in the early 1980's. The district is called Adams Heights and this name is important for 2 reasons; it is the name of the original homesteader who once occupied this land and it is high in elevation for a neighborhood just short stroll from the shores of Sarasota Bay. Being a bit "new" for this historic area also means you can enjoy the dramatic beauty and tree canopy of a vintage neighborhood while feeling safe in more recent masonry construction. "More recent" construction means a 2 car attached garage, two beds and two baths arranged in a split plan, a great room with a vaulted ceiling, an eat in kitchen, enclosed Florida room and more features we sometimes do without when shopping in Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores. What's more is this is a one owner house with very little deferred maintenance. It has been the retirement home of a meticulous engineer so you should find everything in good working order, albeit a rather blank canvas. But maybe you are looking for a structure of high integrity to put your creative stamp on? This house is absolutely move in ready but you may choose more contemporary flooring or a more varied color palette. It matters not because anything you may want to do will be a great investment in one of Sarasota's most popular neighborhoods which is just minutes from every major cultural attraction and a 12 minute drive to Lido Key and the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
