Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully improved, this 1945 Sarasota cottage blends historic character with meaningful modern updates completed over the past 10 years. Recent improvements include the widened crushed shell driveway in 2020, new fencing and gate installations in 2023 and 2025, additional hurricane rated windows installed in 2024 and new fencing around the patio in 2025. These updates enhance privacy, curb appeal, and longevity while preserving the character that makes this property unique. Set on a spacious corner style lot with mature trees, the home welcomes you with a full length front porch that sets a warm and inviting tone. Inside, original hardwood floors, detailed trim, and timeless textures reflect the craftsmanship of its era. The layout includes two true primary bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom, providing flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or separate work spaces. The living room feels bright and comfortable with updated windows throughout. The formal dining room features crown molding, wainscoting, and French doors overlooking the yard. The generous kitchen offers plenty of workspace along with a walk in pantry rarely found in homes of this time period. The fenced backyard is arranged into multiple outdoor living areas including paver walkways, a private side patio, gardening zones, mature landscaping, and rain barrels that stay with the home. Alongside the recent improvements, the seller has completed many additional updates over the past decade that maintain and protect the property’s structure, systems, and original charm. With no HOA, county water and sewer, parking for up to four cars, and a location close to Siesta Key Beach, Downtown Sarasota, shopping, restaurants, and I 75, this home offers the perfect balance of history, character, and practical updates ready for its next chapter. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
