One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to your Florida hideaway with just the right blend of Midwest hospitality and Northeast charm—where screened lanai mornings meet palm tree breezes in the heart of Sarasota. Nestled in the private, gated community of Oak Court, this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a premium preserve and water view lot, offering peaceful privacy and space to unwind. Step inside and discover 1,740 square feet of smart, comfortable living with a split-bedroom floor plan, open dining and living areas, and an eat-in kitchen that looks out to the expansive lanai. The primary suite features dual closets, an en-suite bath, and direct access to the lanai—perfect for quiet reflection or breezy evenings. This home is solid, with great bones, and ready for your personal touch. The kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and carpet could use some updates, which means opportunity for the buyer with vision. Whether you’re relocating from the Midwest or Northeast, or just dreaming of a lifestyle that includes sunshine, nature views, and space to entertain, this home offers it all. Oak Court is a hidden gem—gated, quiet, and rarely available—yet close to everything: shopping, dining, I-75, downtown Sarasota, and world-renowned beaches. If you’ve been waiting for a home with character, location, and room to make it your own—this is your moment. Schedule your private showing today.
