About This Home
Set on a large waterfront homesite in the North Isles neighborhood of Whitfield Estates, this property offers the kind of Florida lifestyle buyers actively seek—sailboat water basin, boat dock, two remote-control boat lifts, quick access to Sarasota Bay, a screened heated pool and spa, and room to enjoy it all on nearly half an acre. The .43-acre lot is beautifully landscaped and features a screened food garden, irrigation well, brick paver walkways and a solar PV system. Inside, the residence was solidly upgraded in 2023 and well-finished with travertine tile flooring through the main living areas and baths, luxury vinyl plank in the bedrooms, crown molding, and wood shutters throughout. The layout includes three bedrooms, three baths, and a flexible bonus room. Wood cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, along with abundant storage, adds everyday function to the home’s inviting interior. Notable features include hurricane impact windows and doors, heated pool and spa, lightning protection, central vacuum and outdoor lights. For buyers seeking more than personal enjoyment, the property also offers a proven rental history, making it a compelling income investment as well as a waterfront retreat. North Isles is part of the historic Whitfield area, prized for its Old Florida character, spacious homesites, and proximity to Sarasota Bay. The location is especially convenient. Just west of US 41, near the airport, close to Sara Bay Golf and Country Club, and well positioned for an easy drive north into Bradenton or south to Sarasota.
