1010 Virginia Dr, Sarasota, FL 34234

There are homes that simply provide a place to live, and then there are homes that quietly invite you to slow down. Nestled beneath the shade of mature trees, this charming Old Florida cottage captures the warmth and character of a Sarasota that feels timeless. Sunlight pours through a dramatic skylight, filling the living room with an ever-changing dance of natural light that glows across beautiful wood floors from morning until dusk. Every room feels bright, welcoming, and connected to the outdoors. The updated kitchen blends classic charm with modern convenience, featuring elegant stone countertops, abundant workspace, and an inviting flow that makes everything from morning coffee to evening dinners feel effortless. Beyond the living spaces, the home opens to a spacious screened lanai where gentle breezes drift through, creating the perfect place to enjoy quiet mornings, afternoon conversations, or evenings spent listening to the sounds of nature. Just beyond, a generous backyard surrounds a sparkling private pool, offering plenty of room to entertain, garden, play, or simply enjoy your own peaceful retreat beneath the Florida sky. Comfort is personal here. A split A/C system allows individual temperature control in the bedrooms, giving everyone the freedom to create their own ideal space for restful nights and relaxing days. Perfectly positioned in one of Sarasota's most convenient locations, you're only minutes from the creative energy of Ringling College of Art and Design, the vibrant restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and waterfront parks of downtown Sarasota, and the iconic Ringling Bridge leading to St. Armands Circle and Lido Key. Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, The Bay Park, the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, and the white sand beaches that define Florida's Gulf Coast are all within easy reach, making every day feel like the beginning of a new adventure. This is more than a rental. It is a quaint cottage where sunlight lingers a little longer, where old Florida charm meets modern comfort, and where every window reminds you why Sarasota has long inspired artists, dreamers, and those searching for a slower, brighter way of life.
