Set on a serene half-acre homesite in Prestancia, this single-story residence combines timeless architecture with a floor plan designed for both elegance and ease. A circular paver drive framed by manicured lawns, tropical palms, and a landscaped center island leads to a crisp, bright front elevation recently enhanced by a new roof completed in 2024. Wide steps and column accents mark the approach to a grand double-door entry, where soaring ceilings and abundant natural light immediately set the tone. Throughout the home, nearly every room is graced with transom windows, volume ceilings, and smooth-finish surfaces creating an airy, light-filled environment. The heart of the home is its expansive great room, anchored by a stone fireplace and complemented by a custom entertainment wall, a built-in bar, and generous shelving, an ideal space for gatherings and everyday relaxation. Pocketing glass doors open to the lanai, where covered dining and lounge areas flow seamlessly to the screened pool terrace. Here, a sparkling pool with a raised fountain and cascading water feature creates a tranquil backdrop, surrounded by lush landscaping. The kitchen offers generous refrigeration capacity, double ovens, abundant cabinetry, and a built-in desk station, ensuring both function and opportunity for future customization. A breakfast nook with cabinetry opens directly to the lanai, making casual meals feel like part of the indoor-outdoor experience. The private primary suite is a true retreat, offering soaring ceilings, space for a sitting area, direct lanai access, and a well-appointed office with garden views, situated for privacy and convenience. The spa-inspired bath includes dual vanities, a makeup counter, a soaking tub, and a curved walk-in shower with dual showerheads. Two guest suites with ensuite baths provide comfort for family or visitors, one of which also serves as a pool bath. A powder bath just off the foyer, a well-appointed laundry room, and a side-entry garage complete the layout. With 4,131 square feet of living space, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home balances comfort and entertaining within one of Sarasota’s most prestigious gated golf course communities. In Prestancia, residents enjoy optional TPC memberships with golf and social opportunities, plus convenient access to The Legacy Trail, Siesta Key Beach, downtown Sarasota, St. Armands Circle, and the barrier islands.
