About This Home

Welcome to "Serenity on 7" – Where Coastal Charm Meets Everyday Relaxation.

Discover the perfect blend of casual elegance, coastal living, and lasting quality in this completely remodeled retreat, located on the 7th hole of the historic Sara Bay Golf & Country Club. Situated on one of the most sought-after streets in Whitfield Estates, “Serenity on 7” offers timeless style, unmatched location, and peace of mind.

From the moment you arrive, the charm begins. A grand circular driveway welcomes you and your guests with ample parking. The entry courtyard and covered porch invite you into a home that instantly feels right—calm, welcoming, and filled with natural light and tranquil views.

Inside, this spacious split-bedroom floor plan is designed for privacy and comfort. The newly renovated kitchen boasts quartz countertops, a cozy breakfast nook, and sweeping views of the pool and golf course.

The primary suite offers serene views and a peaceful escape, while the opposite wing includes two well-appointed guest rooms. A major highlight of this home is the semi-attached Casita, complete with a private entrance, full bath, patio, and its own stunning golf course and pool views—perfect for guests, a home office, rental income, gym, or multigenerational living.

Built to last, this home features a standing seam metal roof and hurricane-impact windows and doors throughout, offering durability, safety, and peace of mind. This home remained safe and dry through last year’s storms with no damage or flooding.

Step outside and take in the view—your private pool oasis seamlessly blends into the lush greens of the golf course. Whether you're enjoying a swim, dining al fresco, or simply relaxing, the setting is unforgettable.

Located between Downtown Sarasota and Downtown Bradenton, with Sarasota Bay just minutes away, you’re truly in the heart of it all. Even if you’re not a golfer, you’ll still enjoy a complimentary social membership to the club, offering access to fine dining and community events.

Live the lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of—sunshine, golf, bay breezes, and effortless comfort. Homes like this rarely come available.
Current owner has made huge capital improvements since purchasing in 2022: New metal roof $42k, New impact windows and doors $65k, New AC/ Duct work $16k, New patio pavers $6k, new sewer lines $26k, New kitchen $15k.
