This two-bedroom residence in Southgate has all the charms of a mid-century home blended with updates for contemporary living. A light and bright living room features terrazzo floors and clean-lined French doors to the enclosed lanai. New windows throughout the home bring in ample natural daylight. The renovated kitchen now opens to the dining alcove with bar seating, granite counters, shaker cabinets, recessed and undercabinet lighting. Each bedroom is an ensuite with its own bath and plenty of privacy. A large, covered, screened lanai and fenced-in backyard is ideal for family, friends and pets. Enjoy a fourth of July barbeque, add a fire pit, or sit in the sun-dappled shade with a good book and a refreshing drink. Experience peace of mind with the additional of a recent two-year-old A/C, new roof (installed September 2019), and carport enclosed to become a fully functioning garage. The location is lovely, near Arlington Park, A-rated schools, Siesta Key, and Downtown Sarasota. Enjoy the endless leisure pursuits and cultural attractions of what has been named one of the “most desirable places to live in the nation” (US News and World Report, 2019).
