851 40th St., Sarasota, FL 34234

What a great find in a popular neighborhood! This home was built in 1981, significantly newer than many of its counterparts, so if you love this part of town but wanted a newer home, this is it! Fabulous layout, with the a split plan for the bedrooms, and the heart of the home - the kitchen, living and dining rooms - all open and interconnected. Came without furniture? That's ok! The furniture is included! There is an extra room to the rear of the house that could pull double duty as a temporary bedroom for visitors or an office. And you must see the expansive lanai, the full width of the house, and perfect for entertaining and enjoying! The yard is full of specimen plants, all lovingly planted by the owner. There is plenty of storage in the master suite, with a walk in closet as well as a full wall length of more closets! Plenty of cupboards in the kitchen too, and you will enjoy the ease of the layout. In the backyard is a private, whimsical outdoor bathing area, complete with hot and cold running water and a bath! The property is near Bay Haven Elementary School and a quick drop into downtown Sarasota, Lido, and a very short ride to the airport. This property is definitely a "must see" for anyone home shopping in this part of town!
