Live in a Charming Historic Downtown Home! Within walking distance to all that Downtown Sarasota has to offer, this newly-renovated, quiet retreat feels a world apart. Set amidst lush Old Florida grounds, this special home was constructed for John Ringling's (of Ringling Bros. Circus fame) ship captain. The legend goes - the ship captain's wife wanted to retire on land and the captain wanted to retire on a boat at sea. The result - this charming 2 bed/2 bath "boathouse". Entertain friends or simply relax on one of the private outdoor decks or patio while enjoying the beautiful grounds. Walk downtown or to the waterfront. Sarasota's world-class beaches are also only a quick drive or bike ride away. The upstairs Master Suite has a private bath and plenty of space for a home office. Downstairs is a guest bedroom, bath, and open concept kitchen (with new appliances) and living area. Rental rate reflects an annual lease on an unfurnished basis. Owner can offer rental as furnished if of interest to tenant. Seasonal leases will also be considered. Live a laid-back, relaxed lifestyle - Bon Voyage! (Friendly) pets welcome! No Smoking. Parking is off-street - 2 spaces included with rental.
