774 Vanderbilt Dr., Nokomis, FL 34275

The Preserve at Mission Valley is an upscale, 18-lot subdivision, close to everything that Sarasota and Venice have to offer. This 3 bedroom, 3-bath pool home, built in 2004, has an open floor plan with two main communal spaces: we find the living room and dining area in the front, whereas the kitchen, dinette, and family room are in the back of the home, which also boasts a study, a fitness room, and a 4-car garage. It is surrounded by a beautiful, rich, lush, tropical garden of a little over 1 acre. The concrete-block home, which is built like a fortress, features 3-zone a/c, thermopane impact-resistant windows, a beautiful kitchen with granite countertops and GE Monogram s/s appliances. The pool deck has a large covered seating area, great for entertaining, and a 15’ x 45’ pool that will please serious swimmers. The attached Jacuzzi is a huge bonus. The master bathroom is very generous as well; it has separate vanities with wonderful custom pullout features for jewelry and cosmetics. Outside, we find a dog run, and a delightful, romantic outdoor shower. Both home and grounds have been maintained to the highest standards. The Legacy Trail, Oscar Scherer State Park, Downtown Venice, and Nokomis Beach are all within 10 minutes. If you would like to spend a night at the Sarasota opera, it will take you less than 30 minutes to get there. PLEASE, CHECK OUT THE 3-D TOUR!
