Tucked within the gated Prestancia golf community, 4221 Escondito Circle offers three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, and nearly 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space that blends architectural character with effortless indoor–outdoor living. Lush, mature landscaping lines the graceful walkway to double front doors, while a private side courtyard with a tranquil water feature creates a peaceful sense of arrival before stepping inside. The foyer opens to expansive living spaces framed by soaring vaulted ceilings, arched transitions, and a striking chandelier, with multiple windows drawing in soft natural light and views of the courtyard. The living room feels both grand and inviting, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with marble and wood detailing and framed by large arched windows. Beyond, the family room offers a second fireplace, custom built-in shelving with lower cabinetry, and walls of glass that connect seamlessly to the lanai. Sliding doors and transom windows fill the space with light while creating an easy indoor–outdoor flow ideal for everyday living and entertaining. At the heart of the home, the kitchen blends warmth and functionality with rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, professional-grade appliances, and generous bar seating for six. Five recessed display niches crown the cabinetry, adding architectural interest, while a built-in desk and pantry storage enhance everyday convenience. A pocket door leads to the formal dining room, where vaulted ceilings, a chandelier, and courtyard-facing windows create an elegant setting for gatherings. Adjacent to the kitchen, the breakfast nook is wrapped in picture windows and dual sliders, offering panoramic views of the pool and pond on three sides. The primary suite is thoughtfully positioned for privacy, featuring vaulted ceilings, serene pond views through plantation-shuttered windows, and direct lanai access. A charming bump-out provides space for a desk or sitting area, while the spa-inspired bath offers a glass-enclosed shower with multi-function panel, a corner Jacuzzi tub with marble surround beneath a chandelier, custom cabinetry, and a generous walk-in closet with built-ins. Two additional vaulted bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with a tub-shower combination and decorative tilework, and one bedroom opens directly to the lanai. A convenient powder room, well-appointed laundry with cabinetry and utility sink, and an oversized two-car garage with epoxy floors and built-in storage complete the interior. Outside, the screened lanai becomes a natural extension of the living space, featuring stamped concrete decking, brick coping, multiple seating areas, ceiling fans, and a hot tub alongside the private pool. Tranquil pond views provide a picturesque backdrop, creating a setting equally suited for quiet mornings or relaxed evenings with friends. Located in Palmer Ranch within Prestancia, residents enjoy a gated lifestyle near TPC Prestancia’s two championship golf courses, with optional memberships available. Just 5.5 miles from Siesta Key Beach and minutes from Sarasota’s dining, shopping, the Legacy Trail and cultural attractions.
