About This Home

As of March 2026

Perfectly positioned on a boulevard and a south-east facing premium homesite capturing perfect views of the 4th fairway in the heart of prestigious Grosvenor Gardens in University Park Country Club. Exceptional custom estate-style home expertly built by Todd Johnston showcasing superior construction, thoughtful design and upgraded finishes throughout. A striking entry greets owners and guests with a stone paver driveway and side-load motor court leading to a 3-car garage plus dedicated golf cart garage. Architectural details throughout, starting at the front with double wood / leaded glass doors. The spaces feature volume and double step ceilings, enhanced crown molding and baseboards, 8’ solid wood doors, upgraded hardware, and abundant recessed lighting. Hard-surface flooring throughout: hardwood and 18” x 18” porcelain tile. A gracious living room features a gas fireplace with coral stone surround, illuminated built-in cabinetry, and expansive stacked sliding glass doors opening to the pool/lanai. A formal dining room with butler’s pantry closet and dry bar sits adjacent to the kitchen, creating an ideal layout for entertaining. The gourmet eat-in kitchen is anchored by an oversized 11-ft island and showcases plenty of organized storage, custom two-tone cabinetry complemented by two-tone granite countertops and premium stainless-steel appliances: Wolf 6-burner gas range, convection oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, 2 Asko dishwashers, and GE Monogram wine cooler. Seamlessly flowing into the family room with stacked sliding glass doors connecting to the outdoor living areas. The spacious primary suite is a serene retreat with a spa-like bath featuring marble floors, split vanities, oversized walk-in shower, jetted soaking tub, and two custom walk-in closets. Overlooking long views of the greens and fairway, a large private office with custom wood cabinetry and desk provides an ideal work-from-home space. The split plan ensures privacy with two additional first-floor en-suite guest bedrooms with custom closets and a well-placed, stylish powder room. A thoughtfully designed butler’s corridor with extra refrigerator and built-in cabinetry leads to a spacious laundry room, enhancing everyday living and entertaining. The second level offers a versatile bonus room with wet bar and balcony, plus a substantial fourth bedroom with a custom walk-in closet and full bath. A perfect sanctuary for guests or multi-generational living. The home is perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with an expansive screened lanai featuring a stone paver deck, outdoor kitchen with GE Monogram gas grill, gas fireplace with stone surround, and ample covered areas for alfresco entertaining. A heated pool and spa, complete with sun shelf and spillover, and new pool pump (2026) create a true resort-style retreat. While broad and open golf course views are the focal point, the home is set back from the fairway and the cart path is on the far side, offering optimal privacy. Residents of University Park Country Club enjoy a sought-after lifestyle, featuring 27 holes of championship golf, fine dining, tennis, pickleball, croquet, state-of-the-art fitness center, and an all-inclusive social calendar. Ideally located near UTC and a short drive to downtown Sarasota, world-class beaches, shopping, dining, entertainment, SRQ International Airport, and I-75, this extraordinary residence offers the very best of Florida’s Gulf Coast living.
