Rarely available, secluded compound/artist retreat at the end of a discreet dirt road serving just 2 homes under the canopied oaks in north Sarasota. This one will surprise you, with its many custom touches added by the master craftsman-owner. Start with the compact but impressive kitchen's custom hardwood cabinets, granite countertops, Viking six-burner professional range, and Subzero fridge. Just outside is an enormous covered outdoor kitchen which could be finished into a spacious addition. Above the 2-car garage is the master suite, with custom built-in console and electric retracting TV stand. Enjoy the soaring vaulted ceilings, then step outside to the covered balcony overlooking your splendid xeriscaped, fenced yard. Check out the huge bonus: A detached garage/shop (built 1997) with nearly 1000 square feet on the first floor, and an unfinished 685 square foot loft upstairs with central AC and toilet. Leave it as it is, or easily finish it out as a mother-in-law apartment or studio. Who knew that you could still find such a unique mini-estate in one of Sarasota's oldest neighborhoods? You are a short cab-ride from the airport and within minutes of both the up-and-coming University shopping district and Sarasota's lovely downtown shopping area. You must see this unique property to appreciate it. Note: the square footage includes the main house (2 bedrooms-2baths, 1049 SF) and the unfinished apartment/garage (1 bedroom-1bath, 1026 SF).
