8246 Shadow Pine Way, Sarasota, FL 34238

Situated on a sprawling corner lot accented by large live oak trees, mature plantings, and landscape lighting, this residence of nearly 2800 sq ft. has 3 large bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, & either en suite or adjacent bath. The expansive master suite has a bay window style sitting area and a generously-sized master bath, with Jacuzzi tub, walk in shower, extra cabinets, and double sinks. An office/den can also serve as a fourth bedroom. The roomy kitchen invites your inner gourmet, with light hued granite counter tops, a center prep island with drop down leaf, & loads of cupboards. Entertaining is made easy, as living, dining and family rooms are all very sizable, and have newer worry-free ceramic tile floors. Enjoying Florida's outdoors is also a breeze: scenic views of the lake can be appreciated from the large sparkling pool, resurfaced in 2013; the lanai; or a fantastic screened terrace adjacent the pool. Energy efficiency is evident in the solar-heated pool & a solar-heated hot water system! The side-loader 2.5 car garage includes tall storage cabinets on 2 walls, a sturdy workbench, & an ultra strong wind resistant garage door. Hurricane protection has been installed around the entire home. Deer Creek is a gated community in Palmer Ranch, with 24 hour guard service, custom designed homes, and a very involved social calendar. Nearby are Sarasota Sq. Mall, Costco, YMCA, Selby Aquatic Center, fine & casual dining, movie theaters, Legacy Trail, and Siesta Beach.
