About This Home
As of February 2025The owner paid additional money to elevate the lot prior to building, this house had zero issues with the recent flood, no flooding... For the first time ever on the market, this home has been cherished by its original owner since it was built, and it shows in every detail. Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac on one of the largest lots in Woodland Park, this home boasts stunning lake views. The thoughtfully designed split floor plan features three bedrooms, an office/flex room, two full bathrooms, a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings and a dining area. Abundant natural light streams through five sets of sliding glass doors, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoor pool area, complete with a screened-in paved lanai and pool overlooking the lake. Surrounded by mature oak trees, the home provides a sense of peace and privacy, while also providing ample square footage on an oversized lot. Recent updates include a new roof in 2019 with a 25-year transferable warranty, two new HVAC systems in 2019 (transferable maintenance agreement avail), and a new hot water heater in 2019. The spacious 2 car garage boasts fresh paint and gorgeous epoxy floors. Woodland Park is a highly sought-after neighborhood with no CDD and low HOA fees. The community provides a tranquil atmosphere while being conveniently located near everything Sarasota has in store, including the Legacy Trail just a few blocks away, I-75 (3 miles), Downtown Sarasota (5 miles), parks, shopping, restaurants, beautiful beaches, and an excellent school district. This home is being sold as-is with the option to buy select furnishings. With a little vision and some modern updates, this is a fantastic opportunity to become part of a special community.
