This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Palm Aire POOL home offers a prime location, incredible bones, and limitless potential! Situated on a large lot (more than 1/3 acre), with a brand-NEW ROOF (2025) scheduled for installation and a NEW WATER HEATER (March 2025), this home is a fantastic value. The expansive family room features a wet bar and vaulted ceiling with beautiful beams. The living room, family room and primary bedroom all seamlessly connect to the large screened-in lanai and sparkling pool—creating the ultimate indoor-outdoor living experience. A convenient pool bath offers easy access from the lanai. The outdoor kitchen needs a little TLC, but has the potential to be stunning. It features an electric grill and a sink. The home backs up to a cul-de-sac with no rear neighbors and offers peace and privacy. The oversized garage, complete with windows for natural light, provides ample space for storage or a workshop. While the home is ready for some cosmetic updates, the solid structure, prime location, and key upgrades already in place make it an exceptional value. Just add your personal touch to truly make it shine! Additionally, there are No HOA fees, No CDD fees, and No Deed Restrictions. The Palm Aire Country Club is nearby – membership is optional. It is just a short drive to University Town Center, Lakewood Ranch, the Sarasota Airport, Longboat Key, St. Armands Circle, Lido Beach & Downtown Sarasota.
