Tucked away in the heart of downtown Sarasota, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath treasure embodies the perfect fusion of timeless charm and a cozy sanctuary. Nestled at the quiet end of a serene street, you'll relish the peace and privacy this location provides while outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the MURT trail and kayak launch that are both just steps from your front door. The charm of this residence lies in its impeccable preservation of original features, including the meticulously restored wood floors, that evoke a sense of nostalgia that permeates every room. Noteworthy updates include a newer metal roof, newer electrical panel, modernized bathrooms, and other enhancements that elevate its allure. The kitchen showcases exquisite marble countertops and the original stove, seamlessly blending functionality with historical aesthetics.

Whether you're a permanent resident with a penchant for history or an investor eyeing Sarasota's thriving rental market, this property presents the best of both worlds. When you step out of this haven, you'll find yourself within close proximity of art galleries, dining establishments, Burns Court Theatre, and the awe-inspiring bayfront. Sarasota's vibrant cultural scene and breathtaking natural beauty are right at your fingertips.
