A rare opportunity for a spacious 4 bedroom 2 bath pool home on a huge 20,000 square foot lot in the heart of Sarasota! Located in the beautiful oak canopy neighborhood of Cathedral Oaks Estates, you are close to everything Sarasota has to offer: the Legacy Trail, Siesta Beach, shopping, downtown Sarasota, I-75 and SRQ airport are all just minutes from your front door. As with many homes of this vintage, the rear porch/lanai area has been enclosed creating a total living space under air of over 2500 square feet. It has good ‘bones’ as well: New HVAC 2023, Self- cleaning heated pool was resurfaced approximately 2015, Hurricane Impact windows installed in 2013, and roof in 2006. Although it needs some updating, the large open floorplan featuring a gorgeous coffered ceiling in the living room along with many beautiful custom built-in cabinets and seating area in the kitchen, provides many options for restoration or renovation. The spacious pool area is fenced for privacy and has plenty of space for grilling, relaxing and entertaining. In addition, besides the attached oversized 2 car garage, there is an enormous 500+ square foot workshop with a separate gravel driveway. Though it is currently configured for woodworking, it has endless possibilities for additional storage, hobbies, boat parking, etc.
