Calling all nature enthusiasts and those seeking to end each day surrounded by tranquility. Welcome to Country Wood Estates, a rare find in a secluded neighborhood minutes from I-75 exits at Bee Ridge or Fruitville roads. You’ll be tucked away from any through traffic in this small unique neighborhood with acre-plus lots. This three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home is situated on a premier lot with a spring-fed pond view. The home shows attention to detail starting with the high-end custom kitchen cabinets, recessed lighting and walnut accents. Pull-out storage, wine cooler, double convection wall ovens set in brick and six-top Electrolux cooktop with granite countertops makes this a chef’s dream kitchen. Looking for a home that is conducive to entertaining? Enter the butler’s pantry through a gorgeous walnut handcrafted door boasting a separate refrigerator, dishwasher space, double sink, microwave and additional storage. Solid wood doors throughout the home add to the elegance. The entire home has tumbled marble flooring. Tumbled finish has become one of our most popular finishes over the years, with superior beauty and slip-resistant qualities. The natural finish gives way to the natural light and gleaming light fixtures of this home. Relax in the open-concept living space with wood-burning stone fireplace (built with an original railroad tie from the old Sarasota Railroad Station as its mantel), vaulted ceiling, surround sound speakers and Venetian plaster-paneled walls. The large secondary bedrooms make this home very appealing. The third bedroom includes a built-in study/library and large walk-in closet with patio access. The second bedroom boasts a large window and walk-in closet. The second bath provides dual vanity sinks, shower/tub, large closet space and access to the pool patio. The expansive primary bedroom has custom molding throughout, French doors leading to the pool patio and dual walk-in closets with cabinets and shelves. The large primary bath features a jacuzzi tub, dual vanity sinks and walk-in shower. French doors throughout this home give you open access to the large covered porch and outdoor surroundings allowing the flagstone pool deck to flow from the outside into the home. Sitting on the multiple-level screened pool patio overlooking the greenway and pond is truly magical. Feel the urge to go fishing? Step onto your wood deck and take a cast. Launch a kayak, canoe or boat on your spring-fed pond. The entire backyard has 6-foot commercial grade aluminum fencing with three locked gates. The entire exterior of the home was painted in 2021 with the highest-grade Sherwin-Williams paint. No need to worry about additional storage space. This home offers a three-car garage, workbench and cabinets in the garage, and ample shelved and floored attic space. Feel safe and secure with the conveying security system, glass break, fire alarms and motion detection lighting. If all that isn’t enough to have already scheduled your showing, a brand-new roof was installed in 2023. A current wind mitigation is available for the new owners to keep insurance costs down. This home is must-see. There are not many like it in all of Sarasota and just minutes from the world-renowned celery fields.
