Welcome to 5044 Creekside Trail, in the desirable Carlyle community of Palm Aire. This beautifully updated three-bedroom plus den home on a private preserve lot with a tranquil creek running just beyond the backyard, offering serenity and privacy. Enter to discover an open and spacious floor plan filled with natural light and several updates. A newer roof (2020), HVAC system (2020), and energy-efficient solar panels (2020) keep monthly electric bills averaging just $30 a month. New carpets in both guest bedrooms (June 2025) and fresh interior painting—including walls, ceilings and baseboards (June 2025)—give the home a crisp, modern feel. Luxury laminate flooring flows throughout the main living areas. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, newer stainless steel appliances, and a casual dining nook, all open to the family room with sliding glass doors leading to an extended lanai—ideal for relaxing or entertaining family and guests. The primary suite, accessed through double doors, offers a spacious retreat with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath featuring dual sinks, a soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. Enjoy working from home in the generous private den, thoughtfully enclosed by French doors for added privacy and a quiet, focused workspace. Other features include accordion rollout hurricane shutters on all exterior doors and windows, a fenced-in backyard, tray ceilings, lush tropical landscaping, including tall palms and mature vegetation, to complete the Florida lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Residents at Carlyle at The Villages of Palm-Aire enjoy low HOA fees, less than $90 per month, and no CDDs. Great amenities such as pickleball, tennis courts, a community pool, a playground, and option to join the Palm-Aire Country Club. Great location near UTC Mall, shopping, restaurants, Sarasota International Airport, and downtown Sarasota and the sugary beaches.
