About This Home

As of March 2026

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. This inviting 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom pool home is set on a peaceful pond-front lot in the established DeSoto Lakes neighborhood and is priced to sell. With multiple living spaces, thoughtful updates, and a rare blend of privacy and flexibility, this home offers an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking comfort and outdoor living. The interior features a bright, open layout with both a living room and a spacious family room that flows seamlessly into the kitchen, creating a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry with pull-out drawers, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and views toward the backyard. Tile flooring runs throughout the main living areas, while the bedrooms feature wood-look flooring and ceiling fans. The primary bedroom includes French doors that open to the outdoor living area, and the guest bathroom features an updated tiled shower. Outdoor living is a true highlight. The screened-in pool was resurfaced in 2021 and includes a newer pool filter installed approximately six months ago. The rescreened pool cage frames tranquil water views overlooking the pond, with no rear neighbors, creating a private and relaxing setting. The oversized lot also allows for RV parking, adding versatility rarely found in the area. Additional features include gutters with underground drainage, lanai blinds, and a large storage shed located behind the garage with a ramp, ideal for mower, tool, or equipment storage. A wide paver driveway leads to the attached garage and complements the home’s functional exterior layout. Major updates include a newer shingle roof installed in 2021. Flood insurance is not required, and there is no HOA. Conveniently located near University Town Center shopping and dining, UTC Mall, Benderson Park, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and Gulf beaches, this pond-front pool home delivers a lifestyle that balances everyday convenience with peaceful waterfront living. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
