A Classic Modern Home with Expansive Lake Views. A rare opportunity for a completely updated home rooted in classic modern design. This award-winning home in a highly desirable neighborhood is centrally located near downtown Sarasota and not far from the beaches. Meticulously cared for and designed by a local architect and interior designer, this property has everything from expansive water views of a natural lake (yet not in a flood zone), a wide-open floor plan for entertaining, and close to an acre of land for a truly private residence. Tucked behind native landscaping, this single-story residence welcomes you with an entry courtyard wrapped in Ipe wood planks and brushed concrete around a full grown Seagrape tree. Upon entering the home, spectacular views of Old Forest Lake immediately wow every visitor. The loft-like ceilings give an airy contemporary feel and the open kitchen is centrally located for gatherings, large and small. A true split plan offers a guest wing with 3 bedrooms and a full bath. The separate primary suite, with more expansive views of the lake, includes a comfortable den for watching late night TV. A spa-like primary bathroom and generous dressing room provides serenity and privacy. Walk down the hall to a mudroom and large laundry room for life’s everyday needs. Around the corner, you'll find the spacious bonus room with its own entrance, for Superbowl parties or kid's sleepovers. There is no lack of storage space throughout the house including extra deep carport closets. This is truly a one-of-a-kind home in a one-of-a-kind location.
