One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. LET’S MAKE A DEAL! Brand new roof, gutters, AC, exterior paint, new roads, and a brand new community pool set the stage for exceptional value in this beautifully maintained second-floor coach home. Perfectly positioned on a private cul-de-sac just one block from the pool and community amenities, the location offers both privacy and convenience within the guard-gated community of The Landings. A private entry with distinctive tile steps leads to a light-filled interior where soaring vaulted ceilings and an open layout create an inviting sense of space. Wide-plank wood flooring flows through the main living areas, and the thoughtfully designed floor plan connects each space seamlessly while maintaining definition. An enclosed lanai with expansive sliding glass doors extends the living area and showcases peaceful treetop views, offering a serene backdrop for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The kitchen is both functional and welcoming, featuring white cabinetry, granite countertops, custom tile backsplash details, and a sunlit eat-in area. A breakfast bar opens to the living and dining spaces, making entertaining effortless. A built-in dry bar adds character, storage, and additional serving space for gatherings. The primary suite is generously sized with vaulted ceilings and a flexible alcove ideal for a sitting area or home office. A dedicated dressing space with built-in storage and an oversized walk-in closet enhance everyday comfort. The en-suite bath includes a walk-in shower with bench seating, ample counter space, and timeless finishes. Two additional bedrooms and a guest bath provide flexibility for guests, hobbies, or remote work. The HOA delivers true maintenance-free living, covering the roof, windows, sliders, screens, exterior paint, landscaping, pest control, cable and Xfinity service, and insurance from drywall out. The home sits approximately 21 feet above sea level and is not located in a flood zone. Residents of The Landings enjoy access to the Racquet Club with tennis, pickleball, resort-style and lap pools, a fitness center, clubhouse, and an active social calendar. A scenic nature trail leads to Roberts Bay, where a kayak launch and fishing dock provide direct access to the water. A private garage with attic storage, paver driveway, and nearby guest parking complete this move-in-ready residence in one of Sarasota’s most established gated communities. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
