About This Home
If you’re looking for charm, a chic vibe and water views that will take your breath away, welcome home! This three-bedroom, three-bath gem in River Forest blends laid-back Florida living with stylish hacienda touches and smart updates that make it totally move-in ready. The first wow moment hits as soon as you walk in: original oak floors shine, and a wall of glass frames a stunning view of the water and lush preserve. It's like living inside a nature painting—with bonus of no future neighbors across the water. Ever. The heart of the home is wide open and beautifully redone, including a dreamy 800 square foot primary suite that feels like a private spa: soaking tub, dual vanities with vessel sinks, a huge walk-in shower and plenty of closet space. Out back, the deck is ideal for morning coffee, evening cocktails or just soaking up the view. There’s room for a pool, 100 feet of waterfront and the kind of peaceful privacy you don’t often find. More to love: impact windows rated for high-velocity impact; two air-conditioning systems for year-round comfort; newer plumbing and air ducts; two-car garage with finished floor and a handy half bath. Starlink satellite internet from Tesla, off-grid connection, no need for Comcast or Verizon. In a prime spot just minutes from Siesta Key Beach, downtown Sarasota, dining and shopping, plus easy boating or kayaking access to Sarasota Bay. This one really does have it all. Come see it for yourself and get ready to fall in love. No water intrusion from past storm season, according to the owner.
