4661 Country Manor Dr Sarasota, FL 34233

As you approach the home, the first things you notice are the towering oaks, the grand columned entrance of the covered paver front porch with 5 stately Palladian windows, the multi level rooflines, a welcoming red front door, the semi-shaded pavered driveway, and the colorful Florida friendly landscape. This home has been lovingly cared for and updated throughout. As you enter through the front door, you experience visual freedom, seeing directly through to the sparkling caged swimming pool. There is a feeling of airiness, as the main hub of the home boasts 15' ceilings in both the living room/dining rooms and kitchen/family rooms. Taking advantage of the height, there is architectural interest in the ceiling of the dining room, making it feel extra special. You can feel safe & take comfort knowing that the Sellers have replaced all windows/doors, including the garage door, to PGT Hurricane Strength Impact Resistant. With a push of a button, an electronic hurricane shutter lowers to protect the expansive transom window above the triple sliders. The kitchen was updated with plenty of storage with ease of cooking in mind. There are granite countertops and solid wood cabinets, including a pantry and slide out shelves. The refrigerator is a brand new Bosch in black stainless steel. The kitchen opens to the breakfast nook and family room, where there is a wood burning fireplace to cozy up to, for our cooler winter nights. 8' triple sliders open wide to the expansive covered lanai and pool area upgraded with pavers. Entertaining friends and family or just keeping an eye out on little ones is easy with the open floor plan. The 4 bedrooms are split into 3 wings for added privacy. The master suite has oversized picture windows overlooking the side garden with flowering plants and shrubs. The ensuite master bathroom is commodious with updated cabinets & tilework. It boasts double sinks, a separate makeup vanity, an oversized walk in shower with seat, garden whirlpool tub for soaking at the end of a long day, and an amply sized walk in closet. On the opposite side of the home, situated quietly off a second hall, are 2 more bedrooms and a fully updated 2nd bathroom, which doubles as a pool bath. The 4th bedroom is currently used as a den/office and is conveniently situated across from the extra half bath. There is nothing to do here. The Sellers have spared no expense making sure everything is done right. Even the garage was redone with an epoxy flooring and contemporary built in storage cabinets in a maple finish. For the handy person, you will find a work center and a storage cabinet with countertops. The pie shaped yard is filled with perennial peanut and jasmine for ground cover and an abundance of bromeliads, crotons, gardenias, Bird of Paradise, hibiscus, seagrapes, ixora, and more. Water preservation rain barrel & composter included. West side of the property is fully fenced. Country Manor is in a desirable centrally located deed restricted neighborhood a short walk to the Legacy Trail, the new playground on Ashton, minutes to shopping, to #1Siesta Key beach, and close to hospitals and downtown. It is located in an A rated school district. This will not last long.
